Traffic Source Distribution on my blog
Recently I was just checking the Quality of social networking site traffic. I had a few of my pages in this blog submitted to StumbleUpon and got some traffic from it. I was just going through the Google Analytics report and found something interesting that I thought of sharing with you
I use Google Adwords for this blog and get a lot of clicks from the campaigns. Please note that I do not spend more than US$ 10 for the Ads on Adwords, and I feel its worth. I get most of my traffic from Adwords as this blog is new and there is no pagerank right now. I need to wait until I get good search engine ranking for this blog and it takes time. I am not worried about that, all I need is to have good quality content. I am not buying any links or I am not planning to for the sake of increasing link popularity of to increase the number of backlinks
My second traffic source is direct traffic, which are from visitors, who type in the URL of this blog and come to my blog. So its a good sign. This traffic source of high value and its a good sign
The third one is from StumbleUpon, but I am not happy with the quality of this traffic.
Reasons - The Bounce rate is the highest of all 92.73%, the time spend on this site is an average of just 1.08 minutes which is again the lowest. Time spent by a visitor who came from Google Adwords is 02.24 minutes, bounce rate is 63.28%, time spent by a visitor who came directly to my is 4.54 minutes and the bounce rate is less than 50%.
I feel the best traffic is the traffic which come directly and in my case, the best are from my feed subscribers which has a bounce rate of just 35% and the average time spent is about 19.16 minutes which is very good.
To conclude I would like to say is don’t worry much about the traffic, just concentrate on writing good content, respond to the comments, and provide the best and latest information to your readers. Don’t just rely of traffic from social networking sites. I see many bloggers depending on these traffic. You can use the stats for getting good advertisers for your blog, that is something which is useful from these kind of traffic.
