Blank Referring URLs in your reports

The reasons you may not see a referring URL are:

  • The clickthough opened in a new window
  • The user has a firewall that blocks this
  • They are using a proxy server that blocks this
  • The traffic is infact a Search Engine Spider ( we have updated our reports to display this information for most major spiders)
  • There is a bug with the latest patch in windows that sometimes blocks this

We are not putting these items out as an excuse, but to give you as much clarity as possible. Everytime we can get where the traffic is coming from we will display it in the reports.
