archive pages

If you have a page with tons of archive / sub pages like ohgood.com, darlina.com, longestlist.com, etc then you are probably receiving a fair amount of hits directly on these subpages: surfers may bookmark their favorite niche page, SEs index all pages, etc. These hits are often not counted because AT in.cgi is only placed on your main page where your trades send traffic to. Because in.cgi is not #included on your subpages, surfers that skip your main page and directly load a subpage are not counted, but worse, do not receive a cookie either. As a result all their clicks are counted as 'nocookie', and they are probably only getting galleries. Placing in.cgi on your subpages like you did on your mainpage isn't an option because every surfer would be counted double then, with your own domain as the referrer. You would be trading with yourself! Fortunately you can instruct in.cgi to ignore hits coming from a certain domain by passing it in the query string:
<!--#include virtual="/cgi-bin/at/in.cgi?yourdomain.com"-->
With this code you can safely place the #include code on all your subpages. There's one catch to this: surfers who have the referrer field blocked (~5%) will be counted double. So the number of hits in for noref will be slightly higher than it really is. However, this small downside does not outweigh the advantage of being able to send more traffic to your trades.
