Our visitors sure prefer Google

Like almost all websites, the overwhelming majority of our visitors come to us via a search engine. Knowing that Google dominates, I was nevertheless curious to look at our own statistics, just to see to what extent.

Our top 50 referrers, over the last couple of years, look something like this:


As you might have guessed, Google sure dominates. We’ve had visitors from some 35 countries, with 54% of them coming via the main Google site and around 13% from the Australian one. But when you combine the traffic we get from the entire Google network, you get this:

Google:
 
84.5%
Live/MSN:
 
5.8%
Yahoo:
 
0.7%

Conclusive evidence about which search engine our visitors consider the most important, by far.
