Popular Questions
Why did tablets beat out smartphones in web traffic?
Tablets may have generated more web traffic because their larger screens made browsing, reading, and viewing marketing pages more comfortable. Users often spend longer sessions on tablets when researching products or consuming content. Network marketers should test page layouts, images, forms, and calls to action on tablet screens rather than optimizing only for desktop and smartphones.
What could a new Penguin update mean for network marketing traffic?
A new Penguin update could affect websites that rely on manipulative links, excessive anchor-text optimization, or low-quality backlink campaigns. Network marketers should review their link profiles, remove or disavow clearly harmful links where appropriate, and build mentions through useful content and legitimate relationships. Traffic strategies should focus on relevance and user value instead of shortcuts designed solely to influence rankings.
What should marketers do when tablets outperform smartphones in web traffic?
Start by checking analytics for tablet visits, bounce rates, conversions, and the pages users view most often. Make those pages responsive, easy to navigate, and fast enough for mobile connections, with readable text and forms that work well on touchscreens. Compare tablet and smartphone performance regularly, then adjust content, ad targeting, and landing pages based on conversions rather than traffic volume alone.
