Tam tersine siteye gerçekte gerçekte hiçbir ziyaret olmuyor. Başka sayaç kullanırsanız Analytics'e görülen ziyaretleri o sayaçta göremezseniz.

Whenever a user clicks a link on a website to go to your website, user’s web browser send a HTTP request to your web server. This HTTP request is made up of a request line and request headers.

One of the field of request header is ‘referer’. Referer contains the URL of the last web page a user was on before visiting your website.

Google Analytics tracking code capture this referrer data and send it to your web property. That’s how you can see referrer data in your GA reports.

However it is also possible to send referrer data directly to Google Analytics via measurement protocol. In this case Google Analytics can record a referrer even when no referrer is sent from a web browser. Such type of referrer is known as ghost referrer.

It is ghost referrer for me and you because it does not actually referring (sending) any traffic to your website. But it is not a ghost referrer for Google Analytics. For Google Analytics it is just another referrer.
