Pretty quick for a DDoS. Maybe it was a bot swarm from the same IP address?

[Inner Dirt]

Has to be Russian hackers posting subliminal messages in various threads.

[bobphilo]

Pres.Trump is denying any collusion between him and the perpetrators of the DDoS attack. :lol:

Could just be individual BEL scratches?

I have you on smart to very smart to running the site so I'm assuming that you got this? Do you have google analytics installed? You're using VB Bulletin?

I was checking a few things for you. Along the way I learned that your site is ranked #14 on Google Organic for the phrase "edward waters maxine waters":lol: Google it, You are page 1 or page 2 5th! and that phrase is searched 2500 times a month.

You're averaging 6000 visitors a month from organic search, and if you were to purchase that traffic, it would cost $12,500 . You have a real asset here. Hint* Raise your ad prices!

It could have been a political thread in OT that actually drove REAL visitors doing political searches due to current events.[/U]

Your site is in the top 10 of google searches for 444 terms between 4-10. excluding the word paceadvantage which you are 1-3. Many of those 444 are political keywords.

Maybe the Brett Kavanagh thread...?

Maybe the Brett Kavanagh thread...?

I can't see the analytics in the source code. I see adsense so I know he could use if it he has it installed.

Looking for

failed capctha rates
failed logins -password resets.
viewing attachments ( requires login )
page views per session ( could be a one crawler scraping every page)
mueller russian probe maybe.

Yes, I was joking and I know it’s true...much of my jests are deeply ironic...there is something about Q that is being censored and shut-down...but I don’t know anything about DOS attacks...I had to look up the term acronym this morning to understand what PA was talking about...

Still, it is interesting surge...maybe PA will tells us more about it...I wonder if it really was genuine interest in an off-topic or if it really was a Denial-of-Service attack...

Good if it is the former; a little worrisome if it is this later...

Hope you don’t mind me having a little fun at your expense...

My Gay Porn thread ?

I recall before high speed internet when we were all on Dial up? And viewing a photograph of a naked woman took 20 minutes!? Just getting down to the boobs took 10!

There's been some funny posts on PA this week and that ranks. lol

[VigorsTheGrey]

I think I found the source of the surge...Trunews, is listed in a Google search with PaceAdvantage as the 12th listing for today when you narrow the search for “last 24 hours” ...associated with the thread I started here “Tonight’s TrueNews”
Just a possibility, but has potential. TruNews is Reporting from the UN this week.

That site has never had 27,000 at one time. Its got 50,000 visitors a month.


"the only nightly newscast reporting the countdown to the Second Coming of Jesus Christ"

I watch Ancient Aliens so I'm down for anything. However, I hate countdowns.

When you think about how Google predominately makes money it's through search words. People type things and those things have value.

Particularly if its a transactional search such as Plumbers near me, as opposed to an informational search such as "how high is Mount Everest?".

In order for Google to sell you someone who searched for something transactional , they have to expose vast amounts of search data to search marketers.

Most anything you want to learn about web traffic, search queries and volumes, devices searched on, time on site, pages visited, actions taken....

All that and more is available. Not because Google is just into sharing it, but they have to expose it all , so that search marketers can compete for it.

Google is Auction based... You bid for the words...but it is not identical to a true auction where the highest bid wins, in this auction setting, you pay .01 penny more than the highest 2nd bidder. Bids are blind.
