| I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but my list apparently has a ridiculous number of views in comparison to my profile, which people would generally have to go through in order to get to my list. In the last 24 hours, for example, I've had about 100 list views and 5 profile views... is there plausibly a bug? Or is my list just being posted somewhere a lot of people are seeing it? (I haven't been posting links to it anywhere.) I don't really mind the extra views, I was just wondering if it was a bug, or if there were any other hypotheses. Thanks! |
| It's because of web spiders that regularly go through the internet and index websites so that you can find them in search engines. They do not only index the "main link" of your anime list but also every other link that you get when you sort your list by any column (adding &status=X&order=Y to the list link). The thing is that if you have specified tags in your list the same happens, because every tag adds &tag=xxx to your list (this link should sort your list by tags but it's broken). So every user who has tags on their list gets more list views simply because their list gets indexed multiple times more than without tags. |

| That makes sense. Thanks for your help! |
