Where does most of your referral traffic come from? Search engines, Facebook, etc?

    So where does most of your referral traffic come from? I know of some sites that generate over half of their daily traffic from Facebook alone. People typically find my blogs through search engine traffic. What about you guys?

    search engine traffic is more targeted, compared to the social ones.

    My traffic comes from other websites (blogs, forums, etc.). Not a lot from Facebook yet.

    I mainly deal with social networking as a way of marketing my sites. So most of my referral traffic comes from Facebook and Twitter.

    youtube and twitter is a good traffic source for me... Also, I am receiving some traffic from other blogs linking to my site.

    Search engine traffic is minimal for me

    Hi, if you're interested in tracking your traffic sources accurately, I recommend this online marketing software called PUBLITRAC we've just acquired that has some pretty impressive lead management features. Some of our traffic does come from Facebook, but a lot still comes from organic search on Google. The software's helped us identify the main keywords users used to find us.

    Definitely Search engines. I get more visitors from the search engines rather than these social networking websites.

    My major traffic source has been Google for years.Well never put that much effort to get traffic from Facebook.But after the recent penguin update by Google I am realizing now what a great mistake I did not by doing diversification in my traffic sources.
