As I pull data for clients this month (and my websites) I have noticed a trend. Over the last 3 months I’ve seen the quality of traffic increase to almost triple the amount.
Many of my clients are starting to use social media and they are beginning to see the payoff. More quality traffic to their websites & blogs.
Here are some numbers from one of my own websites:
LinkedIn traffic has increased by 320%, time spent on site up 224% and bounce rate has gone down 34% over the past three months. Those are amazing numbers!
Facebook traffic has gone up as well, but not as much as LinkedIN.
Many businesses I know have seen great numbers coming from both LinkedIn and Facebook. Is your business seeing the same thing?

Over the past few weeks, I’ve noticed some strange emails coming via LinkedIn for people looking to connect. I wanted to pass along this information and see if anyone else is seeing the same thing.
Here is what I have seen over the last 2 weeks:
“Bob Jones” has indicated you are a Colleague at college:
I have seen about 5 of these over the past few weeks. Another one is people looking to connect because we worked together at Xerox, Kodak (for me) or somewhere else. When looking through their profile it’s obvious that we never worked together and they may have never worked for that company.
Have you noticed any of these messages over the past few months? I’d love to hear your feedback.
