Is this a kind of attack or what?
I have previous post here if you want to know more about me case: click here
My site is reaching in this month 9 million hits (9777631). I have two sites with my hosting company one of them is very normal, but the other one is crazy and I don't know how to deal with it and solve the problem.
The problem with second site is it’s making a lot of hits; it is now 10 days and the second site is down because it exceeds its bandwidth limit.
I tried to block some IPs! It works for one day then everything jumps up again. The site is making (407401) avg. hits a day. The most active part in the site is a discussion board like this one, with avg. 25-30 user and 30 posts a day.
I'm not sure if this is a kind of attack that causing this problem? If yes what it is call, and how to stop it?
One more thing, In the admin control panel there is an IP made 1 visit with 100986 Hits!! Is this possible? Another one made 1 visit with 64690 Hits. There are many like this, may be they are many people share same IP or not, I'm not sure!!
Please advice me what to do, I’m on share server, and I have a BIG doubt that these are true numbers or visitors.. Thanks
