    I often get a small percentage of "other". I'm not sure myself what the sources could be...maybe mobile???

    no , it's not mobile .

    it's my first time to see it and i want to know what it is ?!

    what is not search engines , direct or referring .... maybe a ghost visit !
    or maybe some one was going to visit the site but he decided not to at the last second ... Google knows every thing :eek:

    This is really interesting. I never saw the "other" source of traffic in my analytics account. Maybe that is a bug?
