I run a little blog on a very cheap dedicated server using Webmin/Virtualmin, doesn't get any significant traffic beyond bots. While looking at referring links in AWstats(traffic report) I've noticed at least two unknown domains pointing to my server/site. The effect basically being that if you enter the domains my site appears with those domains in the address bar - I've tackled this by adding the following to my site's .htaccess file, so now my site always appears in the browser address bar -
So, for people with more experience of hosting, what exactly is the point of pointing domains at somebody else's site when that person's site doesn't get much traffic anyway?
Code:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^mysite.com$
RewriteRule ^/?(.*) http://mysite.com/$1 [QSA,R=301,L]So, for people with more experience of hosting, what exactly is the point of pointing domains at somebody else's site when that person's site doesn't get much traffic anyway?
