Clicked on Referrer Spam Link in Blogger

[switcher3365]

I have a Mac and use Safari. I was looking at my Blogger stats and clicked on a link that said a visit came from aptratings.com. (I have used that site before to look at apartment views). Anyway, I was redirected to another site trying to sell some product with and aptratings banner on top.

I usually don't fall for stuff like this but wonder if I should be worried about any malicious activity as the result of this. Should I be?

No, simply being redirected isn't a case of malware. If you didn't install anything, you're fine.
