WooHoo! Google has been dethroned as my number one source of traffic!

It takes time to build up alternative sources, but I am happy to say that "Direct" traffic is now my biggest source of traffic.

Google has now been moved down to the number two spot and I am happy about that.

Give people a reason to visit your site(s) more than just once and you will benefit just the same.

    Nice to hear that - but did you lose a lot of Google traffic due to Panda/Penguin?

    Forum postings can also be lucrative. I need to post on a few more forums and my .sig links will be really valuable.

      No. Actually SEO traffic is up...I just have been working hard on alternative sources and it seems to be paying off...I simply crossed the thresh-hold.

    Where is your main traffic coming from now, as in how many sources?

    Perhaps we can learn something from it.

    That's actually pretty inspiring, knowing that google isn't your number two due to a loss of SEO traffic but instead due to an increase in your "direct" traffic. Sounds like you've got your traffic covered, all things considered.

    Direct Traffics, that means most of your traffics are Returning visitors! We'll i am glad to hear that, once you give your visitors what they are looking for, you'll earn their trust! hehe

    That's great. And moreover, I wish you more traffic not only from Google, but also from other SE such as yahoo and bing

      LOL! I wish. Other search engines only amount to about 1% of the SE traffic Google sends.

      I guess people just don't use other search engines...

    I have earned all my best customers not from Google but from those
    satisfied customers who advertised freely my work.

    Seriouly I have had my worst nightmare customers all from Google traffics.
    Those people who have come to you for the first time without any trust
    and ask you for a price, quality of work, portfolios and the like.
