What means the referring traffic in analytics?

 

referring traffic means traffic that you have gained from other sites linked to you except search engines.
For example social bookmarks,article directories or ...

 

The traffic/visitors who landed on your site through a referral/redirector is termed as referring traffic. These visitors are mainly the visitors of another sites who have been referred to your site through a back link on their pages.

If the visit is not direct and it is not from SERP, then it is from some other website which have a link to your page. Any other site have a link to your page is called a refferring site.

 

Referring traffic means the visitors who came from other sites instead of Search Engines.

 

You visit ABC.com from the link on EFG.COM. That's referral traffic.

 

sometime it shows that google.com as referring site, what you people say about it. . .

 

Check the source and maybe someone came from google.com/your-profile-page or if you left comments and link on google webmaster blog and someone hit it to check out your website.

 

This is simply traffic that is sent to your website through another site i.e Google search

 

Assume your website is A.com . Another website that is B.com and give you the link. When a visitor from B.com to your website. That's the referring traffic

 

For me, receiving some amount of referral traffics means that there are certain promotional tactics which are getting effective in some way.

There are 3 kinds of traffic which is generated through SEO or any PPC for every site.

Direct Traffic - When somebody knows your site URL and open and access it.

Search engine traffic - When somebody visited on your site through search engines which may be paid(sponsored link) or free.

Referral - When somebody visited your site via any other site where you have backlink on that site.
