How Much Organic Search Traffic Website Receives

Organic search traffic [organic search traffic definition] is the best kind of site traffic.   It is traffic from search engines.   When someone does a search using one of the search engines (Google, MSN, Yahoo!) you want your site to appear in the results.   If the user clicks on your site from the list of search results it is called organic traffic.

It is good traffic because it is targeted traffic.   The users who finds your traffic via search engine is interested in your site.   The search engine displays your site in the search results because it is what the user is looking for.   When somebody types 'how make money make with website' into a search engine my hope is that this site appears in the results.   Someone has a question and my site has the answer – a perfect match.  

Your main goal should be to constantly increase organic traffic.   It takes time but well worth it.   Organic traffic is increased by having quality backlinks [backlinks definition] to your site.   The more quality backlinks your site has the higher search engines will rank your website and therefore the more often your website will appear in search results.  

Another ingredient involved in increasing organic traffic is SEO [Search Engine Optimization definition] – making sure your content follows certain guidelines and procedures.  The more optimized your site is for search engines the higher is will rank in the search results.  For an example of how to optimize content for search engines see blog post How To Make Money With Jesus.

Tracking organic traffic is a great way to measure the progress of your website.   If your organic traffic is increasing then your site is progressing.
