Coders/server admins/hosting usually likes to blame everything that isn't working to ddos, as ddos is such a dark horse. That mistic traffic, overtaking websites, like plague. Never to be detected and known. Spoooky.
Anyway, not saying it's not, just from my experience. Also not sure what you mean they are "targeting your weak spots". DDoS bots aren't robots. You point them and they overload, they don't probe your website and scan it for "weak spots". The usually either know the weak spot and hit on it hard, or they hit the "known" weak spots. If you have a "unique" weak spot, it most likely is not a ddos but a bad coding error and your traffic just stalls on that spot.
