Search Engine: 1:13 (29% of traffic)

Direct Traffic: 2:18 (19% of traffic)

Referring Sites: 3:03 (52% of traffic)

I considered that except our direct traffic numbers are lower then our referral numbers: less pageviews and less average time on site.  I think it's because we do not have much social media traffic and because we tend to write long posts.  

Mar 19 - Mar 22: 3:21 (3,900 unique visitors, 1.8 av. page views)

I had a post go kinda-viral this weekend, which altered my average time and page views a bit.

Broke Professionals, your stats are amazing! How do you do it?

Mike:

Our numbers are going down in terms of time spent on the site.  Here are the numbers for the past month:

We have about 160 visits per day, 100 uniques, on average.  We do not have much traffic from search, only about 15-25 per day.  That also helps.   For the past month the google analytics stats show: 3:34 minutes per visit, 5.11 pageviews per visit.  24,909 pageviews total.  4,873 visits, 2,895 visitors.  65% referring sites, 23% direct, 11.6% search engine. 

personally I find the <10% bounce rate to be the most amazing... im starting to trend towards 60% and I thought that was an accomplishment.  How long has your site been up and running?

2:10 average time on site for 2011.

For some reason, the last 5 days show 3:38, each day being high. It's interesting how volatile this can be, and perhaps variations are impacted by outlier visitors spending an hour on the site searching archives, etc.

4:13 average, 5.21 pageviews per visit.

We do not do social media and have a less than 10% bounce rate, so that helps a lot. We are a new site and 60% of the visits are new (thus maybe want to read more in our archives etc) so that helps as well. 

 

 

4:13? how many visits do you have per day? that's amazing stats!
