One of my other sites, Ballroomtube.net, got a mysterious traffic spike today. According to Google Analytics, those spiders are from Kintiskton, LLC. A quick Google search revealed that this company is based in Mountain View, California, and many other sites got hit by their spiders. A weird thing is that nobody seems to know what the spiders are for, so some call them “mysterious” and some state that they are “unlawful spiders.”

I wouldn’t mind my site being hit by search engine bots but this one is different. One commenter on a blog site said the spike would subside after a few weeks. I wonder if the spike on my site will continue for more than one day. In the meantime, I’ll keep an eye on this and will search some more info on this.
