Exclamation Vertical Pigeon

Ok so who else is seeing stats and click throughs from Vertical Pigeon . com?

They seem to be hitting all my sites as though they have a link and people are clicking through. Happens a lot with other sites I know but these guys are just pushing it quite a lot recently.

Is it to get Brand awareness before launch or is it for Alexa rankings?

But why push false hits to sites as if a link is on your site so webmasters or stats watchers go to yours?

All it's done is make me think that Vertical Pigeon are up to no good and I put a thumbs down to the Brand. If anything ever comes out from it

Bad practice in my eyes.

Thumbs up Vertical Pigeon Not Up To No Good

It was not our intention to "push out false hits."

We didn't realize that any webmasters or "stats watchers" would even notice.

It will all become clear within a week.
