Is social media traffic really worth it?

Even though my first website is relatively new it gets more than , 83% of this traffic comes from search engines while a very small percentage comes from social media.

There are lots of reasons that should let you avoid depending on social media sites for traffic even if there are some websites out there than depends on them heavily.

In this article I will point out why is social media traffic worthless in most cases.

Reasons social media traffic is worthless

• Very Time consuming: Even if you can successfully drive traffic from social media sites you will still have to update your profiles regularly, interact with the people there and make changes every now and then to them.
• Websites die: Shortly after a social media website becomes very popular another one jumps in and takes the lead. This will require those who depend on social media for traffic to create new profiles on the new sites and start the process all over!! Search engines like Google and yahoo never and will never die. see (Search engine marketing vs social media marketing
• Users have very short attention span: Those who visit social media websites have very short attention spans. They usually jump from website to another quickly and they generally they look for interesting news rather than intellectual content.
• No one of them will buy form you: My daily average traffic at the time of writing this post is 15,000 hits, one day I got a traffic surge from a news site and the daily hits jumped to 34000!! But guess what? No additional sales!! Simply those people will only be converted if they came by their will and not if they suddenly found themselves on your website.

Summary

In short, getting traffic from search engines is much easier than getting it from social media websites, its more guaranteed and much easier to maintain.

If you have the time you can depend on both traffic sources but give higher attention to search engine optimization than to bringing traffic from social media sites.
