Does Domain Maturity Increase Traffic?

i heard that traffic should increase annually naturally based on site age. but is this a myth, or specific to domain age or some other factor?

Not sure where this theory originated, but how domain age and traffic could be connected is totally beyond me. I will say that aged domains are somewhat easier to rank then new ones are, at least that has been my experience.

No its not.
When it says traffic will increase it meant for large sites. where people will bookmark your site and come back later on. But for micro niche sites, no it wont
