Where do you get most of your blog traffic?

A couple of months ago, I used to get the most traffic on my old blog from BC but now it seems that since I joined Entrecard three days ago, I was getting more traffic from them than here. My activity so far on both BC and Entrecard is the same. What are your thoughts about this? No bias with BC, I've been here since Dec.08 and rejoined just recently with my reformatted blog two days ago.

I get most of mine from Google, for both blogs. Traffic to my music blog used to come mostly from BC but the more content I post the more search engine traffic I receive. I'm pretty sure that's how it's supposed to work.
-
yeah same.. 've been getting a lot from google and other search engines.

I'm new to the game so I haven't figured it out yet.-
ditto here

I get most of my traffic from Yahoo! aside from Entrecard.
-
my business website sends about 45%. Facebook sends perhaps 30%. Myspace maybe 15% Twitter, stumbleupon, BC, and all the other stuff make up the rest -
I think I am getting my traffic from refering sites -
According to sitemeter, only a few come in through blogcatalog, myspace and my squidoo lens... most are people googling basic related subjects like NASA, astronauts, moon landings, mars, etc
unfortunately, it marks a lot of the referrals as "unknown" ??? -
Most of the people coming to my blog are searching google for paintings by Bouguereau and Maxfield Parrish. I wrote a post about them a while ago and my blog comes up as the first source for certain pics... -
Mostly the internet.-
ha!

I get most of my traffic from Google, followed closely by BC. -
Adult Blog hub, and then searches, Apparently people like Blasian Porn lol and when they type that in my blog comes up. After Google I would have to say people who click the links on forums I go to. -
Entrecard gets me about 150 hits per day, if I drop all 300 drops and advertise like crazy on the cheap blogs. It also makes my Page Rank go up. I was about to make a post on how to get the best from Entrecard and keep people coming back to your blog.-
That's cool. I'm new to Entrecard so may be I should try doing that if time allows...I just forgot to mention, most of my organic search results come from my YouTube channel and Yahoo! undisclosed recipients article.

Most of my traffic seems to be referred from one of the blogs I follow on Blogger. I think that the Followers feature on Blogger helps a lot. -
I'm a forum moderator and my URL is in my signature over there....on 47,000 posts LOL. I also have a feed to my blog on my Facebook account, and Google I think is 3rd for traffic. -
Forum sites does refer traffic. Yahoo! gives the most referrals for me same with my YouTube channel.
-
I was thinking of making a Youtube montage too. Now that you said this, I'll hurry it up!

Most of mine comes from Entrecard, but my search traffic from Google has really been going up lately (that crazy Lifetime plane and the Glade commercials irked me and I wrote about them - now they haunt me!!). I've been getting quite a lot of direct traffic too, which has surprised me, but I think a lot of them are people who bookmarked me for EC dropping. I get a few from BC, Facebook and Twitter, but not a lot. -
My traffic mostly comes from Entrecard. -
From here! -
Mine comes sometimes from BC, sometimes I hunt for really great blogs out there and then I comment then they comment back and my real-life friends.-
It's good to know that you're getting much traffic out of BC.

Entrecard rejected me lol, I don't really know how to generate traffic, but i just try to write interesting and unique content.
-
I created an account on Entrecard last night, after reading this thread.
I got confirmation that I was accepted a short while ago, however, I just realized that Wordpress.com doesn't support Entrecard.
And now, my inbox keeps getting spammed with ads dropping notification thingies. Grr. -
StumbleUpon and it isn't even close. -
Google sir.. -
Its google for me.. -
I was curious about this entrecard thing, so I checked it out and signed up to test it out for a few weeks. Looks really good -
-
I never missed a day without traffic coming from my YouTube channel.
-
mostly google -
Google, Craigslist. -
How do you find out?-
Your isp should give you search stats on your site which will show you information about how people found your site and where they came from and if they were from a referred link from someone like BC, for example -

I'm not a traffic expert, but since I started blogging actively two or three weeks ago, the majority of my traffic comes from Reddit. I don't like Reddit because people tend to downvote anything that isn't their own submission, but even with one of my Reddits sitting at 0 points, I still got over 200 unique visitors in one night. That was probably because of the headline, though.
The main key to getting traffic is to write about something that people just have to see. Make an exciting headline and be sure the content of your post can sustain that excitement for visitors who are lured in!-
You dont need to be an expert to understand traffic.Visit my blog sheikhsarfras.blogspot.com/search/label/Google%20Analytics to understand how simple it is

My comments on news fora.
Entrecard didn't accept me because they want 100% English blogs, 50% is not good enough. Unbelievable. Maybe you need to pass an Americanness test too ?
I hardly get any traffic lately from Blogcatalog. It's every week 2 or 3 users. -
from search! -
organic search (45%) and referral sites -
Frome people searching on engines with key words. I really pay attention to my tags. -
I receive most traffic from Google! I do pay attention to my keywords!
