Hi all,

Just would like to know if I start receiving more visits for my web hosting site than usual to my website will this affect my google ranking and should I see it increase?

And if so how does google actually track this as I would think it be my web hosting server that would only have this stats.

Thanks

    No. This doesn't make any difference.

    It actually use to and I found a period of about 9 months where if I boosted traffic my rankings increased, but that was years ago and it doesn't happen any more.

    It depends greatly on where that traffic is coming from. If they are from Google searches, Google+ or YouTube, then Google will be able to see them.

    If you have Google Analytics installled, then Google will see any traffic sources to your site.

    Google knows that they are sending you traffic and they want to make sure they get what they search for on your website. So, traffic is important, especially what happens with it (if the traffic returns on Google search, they probably didn't get what they wanted).
