Lately, around the office we've been experiencing an increasing number of referrals in both our client websites and our own. Our initial reaction? ALL SMILES, CHEERS AND RAINBOWS!! One of our clients monthly visits increased by nearly 400 visits in a month. Whatever marketing strategy we put in place surely was a golden ticket!
Then we looked closer at the numbers, it didn't take more than a few moments to realize that something in our Google Analytics reports wasn't quite right. Bounce rates had increased to over 75% and our average visit duration plummeted from 2 and a half minutes to only 30 seconds.
With so many new visitors, how can this be?
What was causing these crazy numbers?
Two words… Referral Spam.
Referral spam is the practice of sending bogus referral traffic to a website. Referral Spam is a type of spamming that makes repeated website requests using a fake referrer URL to the site the spammer wishes to advertise to.
What does this do?
Being spammed by these bots causes the information in Google analytics to be corrupted. Because the spammer has made numerous requests to your website, even though they did not actually visit, they up show up in the analytics reports as sessions with a 100% bounce rate and 0 second duration. This changes the averages in our reports, an increase in number of visits , initially looks great, until you look deeper. By comparing the months stats with those of previous months, you will see the numbers have been skewed. Now it is not possible to accurately compare how many people came to your site and how long they stayed because the averages have been altered by fake visits.
Why would anyone do this?
The most obvious reason is traffic; people are curious by nature, and they want to know what is going on their websites, so they go to the referral URL to check it. These spammers hit thousands of Google Analytics accounts so you can imagine the amount of traffic they are getting with this method. Sometimes to promote a page and sometimes they will redirect you to an online store where they will get a cut if someone buys anything. Additionally these spammers are able to trick google into ranking their website higher in a search. These website owners will use this data to sell their directory services.
What can we do about it?
There are a few ways you can combat these types of bad referrals, by taking care of them and setting up filters inside your Google Analytics, your reports will go back to the accurate representation of your website you had prior to being attacked.
Below are a couple of strategies you can use to combat referral spam:
- Set up a filter by Country (if you mainly work locally or nationally, then remove any international countries from your analytics reports)
- Set up a filter to remove specific referral URLs
In the meantime…
You can still get some accurate data from your Google Analytics, it will just take a little extra work on your end.
If you're looking for your Audience overview stats (Number of sessions, Pageviews, Pages per session, Average Session Duration, and Bounce Rate)… you view by geographical location.
- In the left hand side of your GA dashboard, under the 'Audience' tab, click the 'Geo' drop down.
- Click 'Location'
This will sort your visitors into which country they have come from.
Here you can look into your specific target audience's statistics – say you are a small business in Canada, and you do only work within Canada. Pay no attention to the other countries, and look at the statistics for Canadian visitors.
You can even narrow it further, by organizing by Cities within countries…
- Click which country.
- Select 'City' from Primate Dimension:
This will show you statistics on specific cities that may be part of your target demographic.
Pesky referral spam is an annoying termite within the Google Analytics application – but don't let them get you down. As you can see, you can still acquire important information from your Google Analytics reports, even without setting up Filters for Referral Spam.
What other techniques have you used to combat referral spam for your website?

NOAA/Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary & Mass Audubon PresentThe Stellwagen Sanctuary Seabird Stewards Program (S4)
Wanted: Experienced Birders and Data Recorders
If you are an experienced birder who can identify migratory seabirds, are comfortable on the open water and can follow basic protocol, then we have an amazing opportunity for you. If you are not a bird ID expert, but can record data on a vessel, please read on as well.
Program Summary
Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary, in collaboration with Mass Audubon, is expanding their study of seabirds in the sanctuary. Our goals are threefold: to systematically collect baseline data on seabirds within sanctuary boundaries to compare populations over time; to educate the public about seabirds and connect residents with their sanctuary; and to train a group of observers to join our scientists in this groundbreaking project. The resulting data will be used to compare relative abundance of seabirds over time--to help us understand populations within the sanctuary and their possible impacts on local ecosystems and as a barometer for other changes in the environment.
Volunteer Stewards accepted into the Stellwagen Sanctuary Seabird Stewards Program will have the rare chance to join sanctuary and Mass Audubon staff at sea as part of a project with a professional research team. Stewards will be trained to count birds on the Stellwagen Bank sanctuary Research Vessel Auk and on commercial whale watch boats.
Criteria for Volunteer Selection: A successful candidate will be able to
If the program seems to match for your skills, interests and availability, please complete a volunteer application at http://stellwagen.noaa.gov/involved/volunteers.html, and send to Anne-Marie Runfola, Volunteer Program Coordinator, Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary. If you have questions, contact Anne-Marie at email@example.com, or 781-545-8026 x240.

Stellwagen Sanctuary Seabird Stewards: Program Background
Just off the coast of Massachusetts, between Cape Ann and Cape Cod, lies a wild area teeming with life and rich in history. Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary was designated as a marine protected area in 1992 for a multitude of reasons, including its high natural productivity and species diversity, as well as its long history of human use. The 842-square mile sanctuary supports 575 known species, including 53 species of seabirds, and the list is largely incomplete. More information on the Stellwagen Bank sanctuary: http://stellwagen.noaa.gov/welcome.html Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary Final Management Plan: http://stellwagen.noaa.gov/management/fmp/fmp2010.html State of seabirds on pp. 90-97.
The Sanctuary and Its Seabirds
Shearwaters, storm-petrels, gannets, phalaropes, gulls, terns, jaegers, alcids (e.g., auks), as well as various sea duck species dominate the list of avian species supported by the Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary. The Wilson's storm-petrel, a regular visitor, is thought by some ornithologists to be the most abundant bird in the world, with a global population in the hundreds of millions. The shallow banks and shelves of the Gulf of Main region, including Stellwagen Bank, have long been known to support large numbers of seabirds. Mass Audubon has designated Stellwagen Bank an Important Bird Area (IBA). An IBA is a site that provides essential habitat to one or more species of breeding, wintering or migrating birds, and which supports high-priority species, large concentrations of birds, exceptional bird habitat, and/or has substantial research or educational value. Mass Audubon IBA program: http://www.massaudubon.org/Birds_and_Birding/IBAs/
Despite the variety and numbers, our knowledge of seabirds' lives is fragmentary, at best. Until recently, much of what we know about them has been gathered from their behavior on their breeding grounds. Stellwagen Bank affords a unique opportunity to study seabirds where they spend most of their time, at sea.
Seabirds are an important resource in the sanctuary in that they coexist with, and depend upon, a variety of other marine organisms. Their flight lines have been used for centuries by sailors looking for land and by fisherman studying fish stocks. Scientists now use them as barometers for changes in the environment—for food abundance, the natural cyclic changes within the habitat, and the health of the marine ecosystem.
Staff and volunteers of Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary conduct an annual National Audubon Christmas Bird Count (CBC) with Mass Audubon each year, following a scientific protocol to track bird populations and behavior for a day. However, in order to truly understand these birds, we need to track them more often at home at sea. Mass Audubon has advised that, in addition to the CBC, we move toward at least five cruises per year on the Auk, plus regular trips on vessels of opportunity. Our valued volunteers can help us achieve this goal and help us communicate the status and importance of seabirds to the public.

Cipriani Wedding Video
This ethereal film could not have captured Francesca and Kuba's magical day in a more perfect way. I can't stop grinning from ear to ear when I watch it. So much beauty and so much style. Thank you to Anna Davis Films for Christian Oth Studio.
Cipriani Wedding
Cipriani Wall Street has seen a lot of black tie weddings, but not often is it transformed like this. Saipua brought to life the ethereal and diaphanous feeling that Francesca wanted for the wedding and created a midsummer night's dream. There was so much I loved about this day. The towering flowering branches with romantic hanging votives, the lush flower wall at the entrance, the engraved invitation suite with gold edging and the vintage cake topper from Francesca's grandparents' wedding. Most of all, I loved getting to work with a couple with so much class, impeccable taste and very much in love. Francesca wore two gowns from Reem Acra, a dreamy tulle ballgown for the ceremony and later changed to a pale green dress with beaded capped sleeves. Francesca was training to be a dermatologist and Kuba completing a residency in orthopedic surgery, so her father said they go together like "skin and bones". Thank you to Michael Falco at Christian Oth Studio for capturing their day so beautifully.

Pretty Peonies at the Gramercy Park Hotel
Francesca and Kuba started out their wedding weekend right with an intimate rehearsal dinner at the Gramercy Terrace in the Gramercy Park Hotel. Views of the beautiful New York skyline and the garden feel of the terrace made it the perfect spot to enjoy a lovely spring evening before the wedding. Saipua sourced a collection of medicine bottles and filled these with several different types of peonies to create a pink ombre effect down the table. The bride hand painted the invitation, escort cards, menus and table numbers. I loved her personal touch on the decor. It was all so romantic!

Morningside Castle Wedding
This fall wedding at Morningside Castle was made extra special with all the personal details that Emilee created. Emilee and Jay met at the Wall Street Journal, so they made newspaper fabric napkins and a newspaper wedding programme. Their escort cards came with chocolate subway tokens and each table was named a meaningful subway stop with an explanation on the table cards. Emilee found a vintage apartment mailbox for guests to post their cards in. Everything that crisp fall day was captured so beautifully by the incomparable Fiona Conrad.

The Plaza Wedding
The Plaza is one of those iconic New York venues. If you want a ballroom wedding, Emily and her team at The Plaza really know how to throw a fabulous one! Both the Terrace Room for the ceremony and the Grand Ballroom for the dinner reception took my breath away that evening. Verde Flowers did an incredible job creating a ceremony filled with lush green, white and pink, and a reception incorporating fun pops of coral and salmon.
The groom found a very old photograph of The Plaza which we incorporated into the envelope liner of their classic letterpressed invitation suite. I loved the elephant that we used on the ceremony programme and menu, and printed on sugar cookies for the favours. The progression of music really changed the tone of each part of the festivities. A classical harp and flute duo for the ceremony, an Indian music trio composed of a tabla, sitar and harmonium for the cocktail hour, and a DJ who seamlessly interwove top 40s and Indian music to keep the dance floor packed all night for Aparna on Omar. Check out the wedding below with all of the pretty captured by Judy Pak.

New York Palace Wedding
Laura found in the New York Palace the perfect combination of classic New York city charm and old world romanticism. On a crisp fall day, she married her love Andrew at this Manhattan gem. She looked so beautiful in her Carolina Herrera gown, with a simple sleek bodice, which flowed down into soft romantic layers. Paired with her silver Jimmy Choos, and an orchid and rose cascade bouquet, she took his breath away.
Their reception was such glamorous elegance. As you entered the Villard Ballroom, the first thing you saw was two long mirrored tables, covered with tall tapered candles in crystal candelabras and clear vases overflowing with blooms. It created a really dramatic entrance. Laura wanted flowers in pastel colours accented with bright pops of hot pink, deep plum and peach, which Tantawan Bloom did with brilliant skill. Ron Ben-Israel Cakes designed a delicate lace covered cake with a floral cake topper. As a playful nod, the cake was vanilla with baked in funfetti! The evening ended with oversized sparklers outside in the courtyard. A sweet note to a fun filled celebration.

Winter Bowery Hotel Wedding
There is something so magical about a winter wedding. Melanie and Greg chose the perfect venue at the Bowery Hotel with the warm brick walls, cozy fireplace and old world charm. The bride looked absolutely gorgeous in Stella McCartney, with lace sleeves and a fringe tea length skirt, which showed off her stunning Valentino heels.
I loved the smell at the ceremony created by the dramatic garland that Rountree Flowers draped over the burning fireplace. It was made up of fresh lemon leaf, magnolia, juniper and pine. Divine! The adorable flower girl crowns were so precious too.
For dinner the long tables tables were decorated with an organic rambling carpet of white pillar candles in assorted sizes, which gave the room such an incredible glow. These were augmented by winter white blooms like white ranunculus, white spray roses, white anemones, dark privet berries and touches of velvety dusty miller. Late night when the pillars were all burning down and oozing candle wax was very romantic! All beautifully captured by the talented Karen Hill.

Crohn's Disease Health Center
Crohn's Disease Treatment: Common Medications for Treating Crohn's
In this article
Crohn's disease, also known as ileitis or regional enteritis, is a chronic illness. In Crohn's, the intestine, bowel, or other part of the digestive tract becomes inflamed and ulcerated -- marked with sores. Along with ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease is part of a group of diseases known as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
Crohn's disease usually affects the lower part of the small intestine, which is called the ileum. The disease, though, can occur in any part of the gastrointestinal system. Thus, the disorder may affect the large or small intestine, the stomach, the esophagus, or even the mouth. Crohn's can occur at any age. It is most commonly diagnosed in people who are between the ages of 15 and 30.
Recommended Related to Crohn's Disease
Although there are many theories about what causes Crohn's disease, none of them have been proven. There is a benefit, though, in understanding the possible causes of Crohn's disease and how they interact with one another. Doing so can help one better understand the symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of Crohn's disease. Scientists believe that Crohn's disease is caused by a combination of these factors: Immune system problems Genetics Environmental factors How might each of these factors...
Read the What Causes Crohn's Disease? article > >
What are the symptoms of Crohn's disease?
The symptoms of Crohn's disease depend on where in the bowel the disease occurs. They also depend on its severity. Symptoms can include:
- abdominal pain and tenderness (often on the lower right side of the abdomen)
- chronic diarrhea
- delayed development and stunted growth (in children)
- feeling of a mass or fullness in the lower right abdomen
- fever
- rectal bleeding
- weight loss
Other symptoms can develop, depending on complications related to the disease. For example, a person with a fistula, an abnormal passageway, in the rectal area may have pain and discharge around the rectum. Other complications from Crohn's disease include:
- arthritis
- gallstones
- inflammation of the eyes and mouth
- kidney stones
- liver disease
- skin rashes or ulcers
What causes Crohn's disease?
The cause of Crohn's disease is not known. It is likely that there is a genetic component. About 20% of people with Crohn's disease have a blood relative with a form of IBD. People of Jewish heritage have a greater risk of developing Crohn's.
Crohn's disease may involve the immune system. The immune system of a person with Crohn's may treat bacteria, food, and other substances as foreign invaders, leading to chronic inflammation from the accumulation of white blood cells in the lining of the intestines and resulting in ulcerations and injury to the tissues.

Binyamin, First-thank you for politely disagreeing with me. Blogs can sometimes be rough. Second-Here's why I don't agree with your theory of me being an Arab. I have a family history of being a cohen. I also had my DNA tested by the a famous DNA testing lab and here's what they had to say about my background. Cohen Modal Haplotype - 12 Marker Match (out of 12 markers being tested) "... if you have an oral tradition of being Cohanim, then you most likely are genetically a Cohen."

"This card matched our Kentucky Champagne theme beautifully for our lovely bachelorette! The quality, colors, gold envelopes and delivery were perfect. Highly recommend."
"I purchased these invitations for my outdoors wedding. The invitations arrived very fast in a cute box and nice packaging. The invites were printed on very sturdy paper. The clarity of the print and the colors i selected were exactly what i wanted. Any concerns i had about the invites were professionally resolved in quick response time from the staff. I will continue purchasing from wedding paper divas because of their top notch quality and customer service."
"I missed the fact that these were stickers, so I put them on heavy black cardstock and cut them into square tags. Then I put a hole in one corner and tied them to clear cookie bags with a nice ribbon. The tags really dressed up the bags. You could easily fold a bag over and close it with this sticker though. It's got good adhesion. The printing was clean and crisp. I really love the design!"
"Did the color in navy. Changed the script to a different font. Design service was awesome as had a concern about a font I had originally picked for the registry line..they gave me 2 proofs and did great job. Would totally recommend this site!! Responded quickly!"
"It was a lovely invitation, Colors were clear and bright, print was crisp, It was a beautiful invitation. This was my first time- but won"t be the last. Would not hesitate to use for any event. I think it would be helpful to include 1 extra envelope."
