We are seeing a tremendous amount of traffic coming to our site from this traffic source. Does anyone know what this is and if it's spam how to remove it?
Thanks all!

It's spam, see the following blog post - https://moz.com/blog/stop-ghost-spam-in-google-analytics-with-one-filter with some great tips to help get rid of it.
They never visit your site and it wont affect your rankings but the above post will help with suggestions how to not see if. My personal favorite is to create a filter (Conditions>Filter, Session, Exclude> URL(s)) it's great for a quick at a glance with out the spam affecting the real numbers.
Hope that helps and good luck.

Domain change from .co.uk to .com - do you add .com to the referral exclusion in GA?
Hi Mozzers, Just wanted to double check that when a website domain changes from .co.uk to .com - do you add .com to the referral exclusion in GA? Do you also keep the .co.uk version in the list too? I have updated the property settings to .com Thanks Anthony

Google Analytics for example.com and www.example.com
Hello. I have had a Google Analytics account set up to track the property www.example.com for several years. In Google Webmaster Tools, I recently set the preferred domain to example.com (without the www), and we put in a rewrite from www to no-www in the .htaccess file. Should I now change the url of the property in Google Analytics to example.com (without the www), or does Google Analytics see the two urls as the same? Thank you!

.com version and .org version of site
So i just discovered that a site I now managae has a .com version - as well as the .org version that is the one everyone knows about! I'm guessing this is not a good thing... So the whole site eg www.abc.org/example has a mirror page www.abc.com/example.... What should I do about this? Is it really bad to have 2 versions out there? Thanks!
