I read this very interesting article about google driving 70% of all traffic to most websites...
It certainly rings true for our own sites and i have to agree with the statements made by Mike Banks Valentine in his article...
"I believe these search engine traffic percentages are a direct reflection of relevance delivered by those search engines. The more relevant the results, the more likely they'll send a higher percentage of traffic to your site.
Relevance at each of these search engines declines further with progress down the list of traffic referred. Is it any wonder Google is the leader? They lead in relevance, therefore in search engine referred traffic. All any engine need do is provide relevant results with limited sponsors and no excessive "shopping" or multiple source PPC links and book links. If they do that, they'll compete effectively with Google. More relavant search engines deliver the traffic to web sites, NOT to their advertisers."
