Survey Results for Blogger Traffic Sources June 27 2009


Share

Hey the results are in and 634 respondents filled out the survey (thanks guys). The way this is going to work is that I am going to make this a ongoing survey where I update by date. Traffic strategies change all constantly on the Internet so this way the survey will always be fresh.

So what does all of this mean? Roughly from the results that many bloggers need to invest more time into diversifying marketing campaigns. But again this will change in time as I am updating every few weeks.

If you want to contribute to the survey you still can here.
