Despite the sharp increase in Google+ or StumbleUpon, the majority of social networks is less than one percent of the reference sources.
Which social network is the best source of traffic? Unsurprisingly, this is Facebook according to the latest analysis Shareaholic. With over a billion users very committed, it remains by far the largest source of inbound links to websites. However, against all odds, they are pins Pinterest taking second place ahead Twitter. These giants aside, other social networks finally seem insignificant in volume. With 4.8% of generated traffic in December, Pinterest is a much better source than Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube and Google Plus combined!
Marketers have long awaited the relevant traffic data from social networks. Including determining which sources refer more to their site. With sharing buttons, Shareaholic and parse data from 200,000 bloggers attracting a total of 250 million unique visitors. Its quarterly survey reveals that the power of a social network is not always a guarantee of sending traffic-for example, Twitter has one of the fastest growing, but the traffic generated as a source decreases.
These data are particularly interesting that traffic from search engines as to decrease while that coming from social networks progresses. In 2012, according Shareaholic, search engines accounted for nearly 42% of organic traffic sites while the social networks barely exceeded 11%. A year later, the motor traffic fell 6% while social traffic has more than doubled.
New evidence that social networks are a growing part in SEO. Will they become essential to boost the website traffic?
