you launch your new site with some content, and your address appears in google search results. how long did it take your site to get average 1k uniques a day? posting in forums, directories, social bookmarking services...what would you say your weekly traffic growth is like? is organic searches the main traffic for you?
It will depend upon the promotion methods you use.Some of my sites get 1k uniques per day within few days after launch. I like Search Engine traffic this can be unique and more natural.Try SEO.
It also depends on the nature of the site and the nature of the traffic you desire. For example, if it is a proxy or directory site, you can push it on the regular hubs where users of those sorts of sites go and reach 1K within a week. On the other hand, if you are looking for 1K organic visitors per day to a content based site then iulianh might be nearer the mark with several months (if you do not have a lot of resources to throw at promoting it.)
I am having the same problems. Even though I am promoting a site that has unique content on each page I am fighting to keep my pages out of the omitted area in Google. So it will be hard to get ranked well in google to get organic traffic. Quite frusterating. Anyone else have this problem?
depends on the site i started a simpsons video site, within 3 days i was getting 2000 hits. I started my bidding directory 2 months ago, only 150 uniques a day atm
yea, that was more in terms of what i meant. site with content, proper seo, not mfa, that grows to 1k uniques through organic searches. just wanted to make sure it takes a few months to get that kind of traffic organicly. wasnt really sure how long it takes since im still very new to traffic building.
A lot of people here are chatting s**t, I SEO a lot of websites and the one that get's the most get's around 500 unique visitors per day (analytics stats), people use mad stat packages that come up with funny figures and it gives them funny ideas.
I hope you guys are considering strictly unique human visitors, not pages views visits hits spider/robot visits The othe day I saw my personally created analysis package record 4000 visits in one day and went wow for 3 seconds till,, quick check on whois revealled a robot i hadn't yet identified, Can be fun figuring out what your useful traffic actually is, Sadly, it appears some spiders can now trigger javascript too
absolute numbers mean nothing. It all depends on the kind of website, the subject and your goals (advertising, informing, selling and so on). You can set up a proxy or porn site and pull visits by the shovel, but they are meaningless in terms of money. A well adjusted site in a good niche may get 50 visits a day but make way more money.
When someone talks about my site on related forums I would get occasional 1000 uniques/day, but most times just 200 or so from search engines. So 1K on a consistent basis is quite a challenge, at least for me. Hopefully when I start advertising the traffic will be much better.
We have to build backlinks and do SEO to reach a target of 1000 uniques It also depends upon keywords your are competition
I think that a webmaster who has had other popular sites online might be able to launch a new site and get great traffic right away. But for the rest of us, it takes quite a bit of work.
