Went from 50/day to 750/day still looking for advice and analysis

    Since the 25th of June my site has been getting about 750 visitors a day. That is up from the average of 50 a day since it started on June 1st. Problem is I am averaging only about 1 to 2 page views per visit. If this was a blog, I would be thrilled but it is not so I am really disappointed right now. I rather have 250 visitors and the same number of page views than 750.
    Can anyone give me advice and possibly break down what I am doing wrong? My forum is nearly empty and the articles arent getting any comments. I do most my marketing thru myspace bulletins and comments. I try to comment others on blogger and leave signatures on forums but it is so tedious.

    I just realized my title could have been quite misleading. Tried to edit it but couldnt so sorry

    It sounds like you are getting traffic from referals. Particularly traffic exchanges.

    This is common with them. You may have to struggle for organic traffic or traffic from relivant banner advertising.

    I dont know your site, but one thing you could do. At the bottom of the pages visitors come from myspace or so, you can put links with catchy titles to other pages, tempting them to read more.
    E-commerce sites use this concept as "recommended items".
    Hope it helps.

    How long did it took to get such traffic increase? I got from 70 uv/day to 5500 uv/day in 27 days.

    Yeah, I really like this idea.

    Maybe if you show us the site we could give you better ideas.
