I've just seen my Proz.com profile has a huge number of profile visits (768) over the past 30 days but a few stand out (100+). Should I be concerned? What do you suggest?

prohoster.info and infomed.blox.ua are racking up a huge number of visits to my profile. When visiting these sites, their purpose is not clear. They appear to be Russian?
