Where is your traffic coming from?

[Westech]

Search engines, word of mouth, and advertising. (Chose search engines above, since I had to pick one.

[incka]

All three, but I get most of my traffic direct type ins.

[r2d2]

Most of mine is from search engines, but do get a fair few repeat visitors. I assume this kind of thing is what you mean by direct type ins Incka? From favourites etc...

[incka]

It coukd be., It just means that its not from a link (includign search links)

[Emancipator]

50% direct request, repeat visitor and 50% search engines. About 4% from advertising.

[davesplace1]

Repeat visitors, search engines and then links. Repeat visitors are my main stay, but search engines and links bring in new people, very inportant for the long term.

[michael_gersitz]

Mostly Search Engines and links in.

[AndyH]

All of the ones listed plus advertising.

[James]

I have no idea where most of my traffic comes from. It's mostly direct type-ins according to awstats.
Besides that SEs and backlinks are a good source for me, and about equal.

[moonshield]

most of my traffic comes from myself.

[James]

50% direct request, repeat visitor and 50% search engines. About 4% from advertising.
Fuzzy math?

[Dan Grossman]

On my older, content sites, the traffic is entirely from search engines and organic links that have built up in the past 8.5 years. With the sites that sell stuff, mostly advertising, with some traffic from links and ads on other sites of mine.

[paulfitz]

Mainly Google, but some sites have a decent 15-25% of links from friends sites.

[Chris Choi]

Hmm nobody here uses PPC marketing or JVs?

That's where the majority of my traffic comes from.

[ozgression]

I use PPC advertising and alot of other people here do. What is JVs?

[Emancipator]

couldnt vote, it needed an all of the above option. Mine is an even split between all options.

[Cutter]

The poll would be better if it asked "Where does the majority of your traffic come from?"

[MarkB]

I use PPC advertising and alot of other people here do. What is JVs?

Judging by the KFC link in his sig, 'Joint Ventures'.

[intelliot]

most of my traffic comes from myself.

[moonshield]

and now bots. googlebot seems to like my sites and so does msnbot.

[paulfitz]

Yes, easily most of my bandwidth and repeat visiting is taken by bots! Google and Alexa go nuts on the Affiliate sites sometimes ..
