Welcome to my Blog!

Reviewing your traffic sources is one of the most interesting and challenging tasks. When you review, in other words analysis your traffc sources, it tells alot about where your visitors are coming from, be it unique or repeatly visitors.

Any types of web traffic, Small and medium enterprises, MNC businesses, retail shops, will face with these types of sources. Typically, there are 3 types of traffic.

Direct Traffic

User types in your domain name and access your site directly. This means the user already knows your site through some other means, like offline advertising in buses, TV, radio media etc

Search Engine Traffic

User types in a keyword in a search viagra on line prescription engine, search engine shows your site on its page. Another name for this is organic traffic. This is where your keywords are important such that the search engine is able to index it. Both GA and Awstats will track and record the keyword search terms used to gain entrance to your site too.

Referral traffic

User clicks a link on a page that has your domain name on it. This can appear in a simple hypertext link, or a banner ad, or a link in forums or social sites.

Below, I have put in some examples that you’ll see from your Google Analytics. You can gather these web traffic stats from any software that you use to track, but this is more visual viewing and illustrations here.

 
This is my web traffic for www.golfswingplaneblog.com

Onto this web traffic, we see quite a huge traffic coming from search engines. As the traffic is still quite small, and the site is still young, we can’t really say for sure this is the actual web traffic percentage breakdown. Since the nature of this site is of timely updates and videos, it should be expecting more search engine traffics.

We see only 4 direct traffic, which is probably generated by me, and other referral sites, probably from one of the article sites.There can be very deep and detailed analysis about this traffic, and what are the plans to do in 3 months, 6 months, or a year, to improve the traffic percentages.

On this traffic stats, the 3 traffic are split at a bigger pie, with the referrals even bigger. This is due to a lot of “advertising” done on external sites, with links. I expected a bigger direct traffic, because the nature of this site is static and informational, much like a corporate site.

I should be working hard promoting it offline instead, though I recently did an SEO with some appropriate keywords and tags to increase the visibility on the Search engines, so do expect some search engine traffic too.

This site is my baby, because it is a closely related to a hobby of mine. Initially I wanted to put my music site together with this blog, but it ended splitting to its own. In the first 3 months, the site has traffic quite evenly squared out. But now since the site has grown with much content and the search engines has indexed it properly, the Search engine traffic increase by a lot.

I would expect the direct traffic to increase, (it has been increasing slowly) and this means more users have remembered my domain name properly, and wants to access my site directly. This site was meant to be both informational, educational, as well as to share my stuff with others.

These are some kind of reviews to some of my sites, and their traffic analysis to show you how important these sources could tell you about.

That’s all for my post on web traffic sources analysis and review!
