What is Your Main Source of Traffic - Join my Poll

By Mert Erkal in Blog

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. You may also sign up my blog tips newsletter, and be the first to know.Thanks for visiting!

Last week I conducted a survey titled Wordpress vs Blogger 2008. Surprisingly, amongst 30 voters, 17 of them voted for Blogger. I was expecting WordPress to get the majority of the votes, but I failed. I would like to thank all the participants for their contribution, and valuable comments. Now I know that Blogger is going to add some more functionalities to cope with WordPress soon. This is something we all should take note of.

Now I have designed another sidebar poll: What is your main source of traffic to your blog?

Choices are;

  • Google
  • Other Search Engines
  • Other Blogs
  • Other Websites
  • RSS Subscribers/Fellow Readers
  • Other

I truly value your feedback. Thanks in advance for your participation!

Other search engines - specifically social search site StumbleUpon - are typically primary traffic sources to THINKing. Twitter, Sphinn and BeeTooBee are in the mix, too.

Definitely “other” - Stumbleupon is way out in front as the leading source of traffic with del.icio.us and FriendFeed neck and neck for second place.

The question is, do I optimise my content for stumblers and bookmarkers or vary it to get more organic search results? Hmmm.

Bill Rice May 1st, 2008

Traditionally Google has been a hugely disproportionate amount of our traffic, but as I improve my profiles on Stumbleupon, Digg, and Twitter I am seeing social media make big gains–adding to continued strong Google results.

Franklin May 1st, 2008

My main source right now is Google search engine :)

Brian May 1st, 2008

for me since i am new to blogging industry my main source of traffic is other blogs and feeds, search engine not that much maybe because im still new what do you think do you agree with me mert?

Tonie May 1st, 2008

I find that most of my traffic comes from Stumble but it is not buying traffic, Google searches are starting to catch up rapidly with more targeted traffic, so in my opinion the jury is still out.

My niche is health and specifically baby boomers so I would like to see what’s up in 6 months time.

Google, followed very closely by other blogs.

Lily Boynton May 1st, 2008

I would say, social media sites. To me Google is ‘the result’ but I don’t get traffic from Google directly. I notice on my stat I have pretty busy traffic from Blog Catalog and Blog Skinny which eventually get attention from Google.

the Hummus guy May 1st, 2008

I get about 35K monthly pageviews. My main sources are:
Google - 64%
Other SEs - 9.7%
Direct - 8.5%
Blogs - ~5%
StumbleUpon - 4.3%
Google Images - 1.6%

For me it is Google, other sources like social bookmarking sites are also increasing their share of visitors but they will take time to defeat G.

TK May 2nd, 2008

so far, it’s been from social media sites. Google is next on the list.

thanks
