Hi.
I have a website let's call it Cheapwidgets.com
One of my competitors has several websites, same industry. When searching for cheapwidgets in google (without the .com) my site comes up first followed by a few pages from each of my competitor's related websites. Each one of his pages is named: Link Www Cheapwidgets Com
Also, each page has Link Www Cheapwidgets Com between h1 tags at the top of the page. The pages list a bunch of links to some other product pages on his sites.

I don't understand why this guy is doing this. Can it harm my website in any way? He even has a "Back to the main page of Link Www Cheapwidgets Com" link that points to his index page. Any ideas?

Thanks:)

If the links are going to his site, he his probably just trying to get your visitors who make a typo. If the links are going to your site, he may be trying to sabotage you.
