Q: What are your main traffic sources?
A: My traffic sources won’t reveal any big surprises, as I rely on pretty mainstream sources for my traffic.
For anybody who is not familiar, traffic sources are simply the places that refer traffic to my site.
The traffic I get is organic, for the most part, and here are my primary traffic sources in no particular order:
- StumbleUpon
- YouTube
- eZineArticles
- NetworkedBlogs
- Yahoo
With the exception of NetworkedBlogs, where I have a premium account, so I can get faster placement of my posts to Facebook, these traffic sources are free.
In my case, it’s really just a matter of churning out content and getting it indexed in various places. With StumbleUpon, I manually submit the content.
No big mysteries or revelations here. Sure, I’ve got lots of others in the long tail, but these are the bigger traffic sources.
