I purchased a domain name, (we'll call it xyz.com), and had it forwarded to a page on my site (abc.com). On the major search engines like Yahoo! and MSN I show where I have credit for the link. But upon renewal for xyz.com, I found that someone has intercepted my link from xyz.com and pointed it to their own page to where they are receiving the direct traffic. But their webpage then has a link to my webpage abc.com so the search engines can't notice the difference about the interception taking place.

So I have been jacked out of all the traffic xyz.com produced for quite some time. Anyone have ideas as to what is going on and what I can do about it?

It's not quite clear to me what exactly is happening to you, but this looks to be more of a search engine issue than a domain issue, so you might want to post this in a different forum. There's been many discussions about pagejacking in the members forum, the Google forum, etc.

Thanks Webwork. I did that and it seems to be a search engine issue.
