With all of us working hard to reach position #1 (or at least in the top 10) I'm wondering... what percentage of your traffic actually comes from the SE's? My parenting tips site is only about 6 months old- here's my April stats: unique visitors: 1389 Direct address/ Bookmarks: 81.8% Search Engines: 2% LInks from an external page: 14.6% (DP is one of the top referrers!- thanks, guys ) So... with all the SEO I've done from the moment I purchased my domain... only 2% of my traffic is the result of that. On the other hand, ya never know, many of those "direct address" visitors could have been an email forwarded by a visitor who came via a Search engine.... Share your sites stats!
60.97% - Google 18.45% - Yahoo 9.56 % - MSN 5.29 % - Other 4.16 % - Direct 1.57 % - forums.digitalpoint.com
Interesting! Also, if it's not too personal, post your monthly uniques! And, age of your site! Here's my SE traffic divided by SE: Google: 30% MSN: 60% Yahoo: 10%
I get about 4000 uniques a month on my Guns N Roses site. Broken Up Its: -Google 30% -MSN 40% -Yahoo Hates Me -Links 25% -Return Visitors 5%
7000 uniques in April on my stock market blog Yahoo -> 9% MSN -> 6% del.icio.us -> 1% Google -> .3% (not a typo - that is point three percent) DP -> .3% All the rest is from all other the map....
