Referrer lists are a way to provide automatic links back to those who link to you. Webmasters know the main focus of hosting sites (other than writing of course) is to get traffic. What good is it if you are the only one reading your website? One of the best ways to get traffic is by linking to other sites, and getting reciprocal links (referrers) back from them. With E-referrer it's all done on in one fell swoop. Our script monitors visitors are they come to your website. If they've come in from a link on another site, it registers the referral and posts it back on the same page. This is very important because users will see their own referral while they're on the website! It's all done in real-time!

If we all visit each others sites.. from within our own referer lists, the link backs will automatically grow.
Just put the code in a Script Block.
Start here..

I put this script into a scrolling side block. I think it looks tight! The new link trading forum on this scripts homepage compliments the script well!

Thanks we'll see how it goes     Mine says, 'We are gathering referrers for your site and will replace this text as we collect them.'   

[evilicy]

Yeah it will say that until you get your first referral from another site.

Thanks, I guess I'll have to just sit and wait

Any feedback?

I've got loads on mine.. In the forum.. I often check out the sites that visit, and found some had listed us personally that don't even use e-referrer. It's a good script, pity it takes up a lot of space.. it can be configured smaller.

I have been using this for a long time, for almost a year

I love it, because it is easy to set up, and you can find out where most of your hits are coming from (as well as give them a link back)

How do I get it to scroll?

perhaps OT but....
If you really need to know abou traffic check out awstats
http://awstats.sourceforge.net
demo: http://www.nltechno.com/awstats/awstats.pl?config=destailleur.fr

it is all back end of course...most hosts have no issues installing it if requested.
All the best!

lol.. Thats not really the point of it, the point is automatic referrals. My host provides all the stats I'll ever need.

[lebisol]

 ...what can you do with these referals?
auto-linking back to any site out there that has the link to yours?
what happens when freexxx.com links to your site....sounds like gate to domain BLs.no?

[Zetan]

If you visit the site you may find out more. You can filter out sites that you don't wish to refer back to.

It's about link sharing, if you don't like the idea of it, don't use it.

Oh, and if you really think it's such a bad thing, a fan of the band, 'Drowning Pool' linked one of our reviews and posted it on the bands official forum:

I would never have known about it, if it wasn't for e_referrer.

[lebisol]

hey I am just unedjucated not angry LOL.
I didn't get whole lot info from the site so I was curious what was the point.
....just used to traditional logs....
Thanks for the info!
All the best!

No worries I use it to return a link back to sites that have had a member post a link to a topic on my site, or other links.
It's a bit anal to be honest and I probably wont keep it there for much longer.
I'm past the point of being overly bothered about stats and how many visitors we get. It makes no odds to me, the site is there and people come and go.
