    Scam ? Of course ! Well it depends (for serious webmasters only)

    Ok let's just imagine that a host signs up to some sponsors.
    He then redirects the targeted niche traffic to the right sponsors
    For an hour, then 2, then bahhh who cares a hole day or more !

    Now i should add that i've been online for ten years and that i have grey hair
    (fuckkkkkkkkkkkkkk hehehehehehehehe, well some grey hair, not a lot, anyways)

    Is it a custom pratice these days ?

          "He then redirects the targeted niche traffic to the right sponsors"

          that line doesn't make sense to me.

          To confirm, are you saying that your webhost is taking traffic going to specific niche websites of yours and is redirecting them to his own affiliate code somewhere else?

                if this was ever done on a large scale it wouldn't be too hard for a program's fraud dept. to spot...for the host, it wouldn't be anywhere near worth the risk.

                      I would lean more towards somebody hacking your server and skimming traffic moreso than your host doing such a thing. There are many very reputable hosts in this industry, if you're having doubts about your current provider, why not switch to someone that hundreds of others trust?
