Google’s John Mueller mentioned in terms of spammy referral visitors, you may ignore it and never fear about it relating to website positioning. John mentioned on Twitter, “I would ignore it,” when requested about it.

Tom Goering requested John, “Since Hyperlink Spam replace, been getting a LOT of referral visitors from web sites with an .xyz ext. I’ve not visited, however I assume they’re some form of spam. Studying your posts through the years, I assume Google has a superb deal with on this–should not damage me, proper?”

John merely mentioned, “ignore it.”

There’s not a lot you are able to do about it anyway and spammers are going to be spammers.

I checked my analytics and this website will get visitors from all these spammy xyz domains, not that each one xyz domains are spam, however some are. I’m not up at night time worrying about it.
