title: Unexplained Google Analytics hits - 24 a day from 12 US cities
body: <p>For a little under a week now we have seen some annoying bot-traffic on on our site. What happens is that every day we get around 24 hits from a total of 12 US cities. That's 288 hits and since we are a new and still pretty low traffic site, this messes up our analytics.</p>
  
  <p>The 12 cities are always the same and they are: Gilbert, Canon City, Clarksville, New York, Madison, Weston, Morgan City, Myrtle Beach, Dallas, Reston, Townshend, Dunwoody.</p>
  
  <p>All hits are direct to the home page and 100% bounce with a 0:00 duration.</p>
  
  <p>We had a Pingdom automated test set up for a few hours last week, so we thought this could be it. But I've just spoken with support, and they assure me it isn't. There are no active tests running on our URL.</p>
  
  <p>So what the heck is it? Can anybody recognize this?</p>
  
  <p>thanks ...</p>
