Shopify is showing as a traffic source in SEM Rush

We have a Shopify site, and under Traffic Analytics, 50% of our traffic source is shown as coming from Shopify? Is that traffic where people click on links within our site, thus is it is showing shopify as the source?

Our concern is that we are moving off Shopify - and we are not sure if Shopify somehow drives leads to our site.

Our Traffic is 51% direct, 41% Shopify, then various percentages for social channels. Has anyone seen this or know what is happening there?

    If you get a visitor to go from one page of your site to another page of your site, it's not counted as 2 visits. It's one visitor who visited 2 page.

      Thanks! That is what I thought. SEM Rush is showing direct traffic as a source, pinterest, organic search, and "Shopify." Any thoughts on why this is listed as a source in SEM Rush? I do not see that in Google Analytics.

        Don't use SEM Rush. No idea what they're doing or why.
