Question for Parking pros.

I've been getting traffic from parking on Bodis. Lot's of Bot traffic.

On my Google Analytics page that tracks my domains, it shows about 35% of my traffic is sourced from Facebook. None of these names are developed webpages. Any idea why this is happening? Unfortunately, little click-thru payable traffic. Also, what's with the Netherlands country traffic? Are their a lot of spider servers located there?

Example for today as of 4:12pm ET.

These are usually bots as you mentioned. Does any history/bl shows it might be promoted on fb?

Is it traffic from facebook ireland ltd? It's just bots.

I have 125 domains at efty with google analytics and I get about 10 facebook referrals on random single domains every day between 2-3 am (I'm central US time). Everyday like clockwork.

And is the Netherlands traffic from Delft? I get bots from technische universiteit delft.

No Ireland bots. Mostly Netherlands and all Delft, as you noted, Wurdd.

Polongru - I'll look for clues of past promotion on Facebook. I'm not doing anything to promote these names. I may have hand-reg'd expired names with a little prior traffic. Thanks to both of you for your comments.
