referrers
Those who recommend
Referrers are people or things that refer—directing someone to a specialist, recommending a service, or pointing toward a source.
In web analytics, a referrer is the page or site that sent a visitor to your page: Most of our traffic comes from search engine referrers.
Also spelled referers, though the double-r form predominates.
