So for my domain its a .com I seem to get so much Direct traffic. Now my understanding is that Direct traffic is people typing the address into the address bar! I want to know why! Its not like I have something that people would type into the Address Bar, Right??? Its not THAT common name/keywords.

Thoughts please?

    You mean vaoser.com?

    Maybe it means something else- it sounds like a creature's name out of a fantasy book or something.

    Or direct traffic could be from a bookmark or someone copying and pasting a link they found in a comment somewhere to view the site.

    Direct traffic can also be from link directories

    Google analytics has a problem with this most of the times this is traffic coming throu emails or referral sources that for some reason analytics shows it as direct traffic...

    If you are getting direct traffic,
    isn't it a good thing?

    Maybe somewhere,
    you forgot to hyperlink
    your website,
    and since they are interested,
    they just copy and paste!

    All in all,
    it just says you are
    doing something right.

    So keep up the good work
    and don't focus on how
    so many direct traffics are coming in !
