Erik Devaney says, “We all know that sources of website traffic can vary greatly from business to business. While some businesses are social media powerhouses, driving thousands of visits through Facebook, Twitter, and more, other businesses are organic search specialists, and derive most of their traffic from scrupulously optimizing pages and posts. And while there’s no single right answer when it comes to driving traffic, the head of HubSpot Research, Mimi An, wanted to know: What does the average traffic breakdown look like for HubSpot’s 15,000 customers? Where is their traffic... [...]

Ian Cleary says, “Do you ever wonder why your competitor attracts a lot of traffic and you don’t get as much? How would you like to steal some of your competitor’s traffic?

All that time and money—wasted. Here are my surefire, tried-and-tested suggestions for getting high ranking on search engines... [...]

Cody Bollerman says, “If you are involved in Internet marketing, you are familiar with information overload. Honestly, it’s what separates experience from those who just scratch the surface – the ability to absorb what matters and cancel out those poor performing strategies. With that said, each month there is something new to conquer and learn to be on top of the competition. It’s very easy to lose track of what is effective and what isn’t. What does your website need to make it in 2016? From integration to social media to conversion focused strategies, inbound marketing objectives... [...]

Mike O’Brien says, “Most advertisers don’t think they’re affected by bots. But since more than half of the Internet’s traffic is not human – though it’s not necessarily nefarious – that assumption is most likely false. It’s no secret that fraudulent traffic costs advertising billions every year. But surprisingly few think their sites are affected. According to Distil Networks’ 2015 Digital Publisher’s Guide to Measuring and Mitigating Non-Human Traffic, only 37 percent of advertisers think non-human traffic has a significantly negative... [...]
