    I get most of the traffic from SEs. About 90% from Search Engines.

    You need to do some SEO in order to get traffic from SEs.

    In order to increase traffic from search engines you must have more back links & good original content.

    You should have the bulk inflow from SE. Try some SEO. Get backlinks through forums, blogs, reviews, etc. Referrals are not a good sign for your site.

    I own several sites but want to report the breakdown on two of them to show a point - breakdown doesn't mean very much, actual number of visits do.

    Site #1 - A hobby site. 92% new visitors.
    85% search, 10% refferal, 5% direct

    Site #2 - A personal blog. 77% new visitors.
    18% search, 80% refferal, 2% direct

    Site #1 performs 15x better than site #2 financially BUT site #2 receives about 1800% more traffic.

    Casual visitors finding a site by link aren't as motivated to click on ads when compared to someone who just performed a search to find your page. Often times they still have questions or want to see more and the ad provides them with a way out to continue the search.

    There are are ton of variables to consider but in short a steady following doesn't pay as well as quality content that is highly ranked by SE.

    Usually it's like 75% organic, 15% referral and 10% direct. I concentrate the most on article marketing.
