Hope ya’ll can help me here.

After looking at my Google analytics \>\*\* Acquisition \> Channels\*\* I see this: [http://share-inspiration.d.pr/F8VQ](http://share-inspiration.d.pr/F8VQ)

It seems like /sharebutton.to is some kind of referral spam. Can anyone help me to figure out what is going on and stop this from showing that the top 6 keyword searches on my site are coming from

/sharebutton.to

The site in question is: [http://haribol.us](http://haribol.us)

I appreciate your support.

Can’t read your screen shot very blurry, and a URL would help.

Thanks for the suggestion. The image link should be clear now. And the site in question is:

> **[HOME | Bhaktabandhav Śrīla Gurudeva (Narayana Maharaja)](https://haribol.us/)**
>
> Audio files and transcriptions of Śrī Śrīmad Bhaktivedānta Nārāyaṇa Gosvāmī Mahārāja. Access hari-kathā via streaming radio and playlists. Read transcriptions of select audio files.

Referral spam in GA is a known problem, you can build a filter in GA to exclude it. To my knowledge that’s about all you can do until Google steps up and fixes the issue.
