Are you dependent on Google?

How many people on this forum depend on Google 100% to get visitors for their sites?

Can I know from you guys that why you depend on Google?

Just want to know your opinion…..

 

Nope, Yahoo, MSN, and many others provide traffic as well

 

Not at all from Google. We rely mostly on directories, and 7search.com PPC.

 

Yahoo, sometimes

 

Well google does have 80% marketshare so naturally I'm going to get mot of my search traffic from Google!

 

Almost 65-70 traffic comes from Google search for my site,
so i can not live without Google...

 

As much as I hate to say it - I depend on them WAY too much.. probably 80% of my visitors come from them, and I hate that!

 

To steal a quote from John Chow

'If you live by Google you'll die by Google'

If Google is your only means of driving traffic then IMO you need to get to work on building other sources of traffic. If 80% of your traffic comes from Google, and for one reason or another your SERP dropped or you got banned (as was the case with John Chow) you're going to be dead in the water.

 

I am dependent on G because that is where most of my traffic comes from, on some days all traffic is from them.

 

I am.No big reason for it ,just use it ,just need it.

 

I dont depend on Google at all. My website has been live for about 1 month and i only received 2 visitors from Google. The reason im not complaining tho is because my site is in a very popular niche and i know it'll take a while to start getting traffic.

 

Don't just depend on Google,I can also rely on Yahoo,In China you can even rely Baidu

 

Totally dependent? No. But Google sends about 52% of my traffic.

 

not 100% but yeah about 70%,.
actually my sites niche is like dis that people can come thru google only mostly... thats y..!

 

55% here. but will work on other way if google dies of banns me!

 

Google can give you huge amount of traffic in pretty less time.without it you can't imagine your traffic to be sky-rocketed.

 

I have several sites that receive over 80% of their traffic from organic search results on Google...so yes I rely on Google for those sites. I'm also dependent on Google for all of the sites that run Adsense. Oh, and my PPC campaigns on Adwords are also dependent on Google. Google's got my ass good.

 

I use Google Images a lot, and yes most visitors to my blogs come from Google.

 

i would say 90% or more

 

around 40% i am dependent on Google to get visitors to my site
