Celebrating Traffic!

So many threads/comments in another place about how traffic is nose diving and I thought it was worth actually celebrating Traffic coming in Laughing

Here's what I said at that other place about Wizzley (updated to reflect stats from earlier today):

On another site which I have recently joined (no prizes for guessing which!) I have created 11 pages (lenses) in 7 days.  They provide a rather useful graph which shows the percentage of visitors from different sources.  I just looked and those 11 pages have had 1501 Unique visitors and  2034 Page impressions - which is not bad I guess. 

28% of those visitors are internal (according to the statistics graph) so that's 72% from other places. I anticipate that those percentages will change over time with the internal traffic becoming a smaller percentage.  I mention this because imagine if your lenses had those sort of percentages?  If you are not promoting, sharing outside of Squidoo, generating backlinks etc etc then you are missing out on masses of traffic!

If you are struggling to get traffic there is some awesome advice here already from various people - read it, digest, ask questions and let the traffic wagons roll (OMG I have gone all Wild West!)

We will make a cowboy out of you yet!  Seriously though, you are absolutely right.  I am thrilled that I am already getting search engine traffic, and even a couple of dollars from Adsense.  It can only go up from here.  :)

That is great traffic. I must be doing something wrong. I just finished my 30th page and my traffic is

76% Wizzley, 6% Google, the rest is other.

Only 1572 page impressions with 569 unique visitors.

Not sure how to improve it. Sounds like your doing well with that kind of traffic for 7 pages. Congratulations.

Paul, I am amazed at my Wizzley traffic too.  Not high as yours, but over 500 visitors for 4 pages?  I think that's pretty amazing.  and traffic is from everywhere looks like - not just internatl!  what a thrill!   It makes my head spin to think how much it will grow when Wizzley ages a bit!

I, too, am just in awe of the traffic and the Google power that Wizzley is generating already! I published my 8th wizzle last night just about midnight, Does Homeschooling Create Shyness. This morning, looking for something I wanted to add to the page, I googled "homeschool shyness" and imagine my surprise when less than 12 hours after publishing, there is my wizzle sitting pretty at NUMBER TWO on the FIRST PAGE of Google!

I am THIS HAPPY to be here!
