Is #advertisement in website #analytics a thing?
Website I am managing uses #matomo to collect e.g. the referrer domain.
Lately, there a lots of weird referrers, all of which are some form of #SEO optimization websites/offers...
@JayVii_de Weirdly enough, yes, that totally exists. There is a blacklist of spam domains in Matomo, so if you want to, you can contribute there:
@JayVii_de It wouldn't surprise me if it slows nginx/apache a bit down. But that is just for non-Matomo users. Matomo itself fetches this list weekly and uses it by default to exclude referrer.
@lukas thanks, I opened a PR and see what happens :)
