over the past 2 weeks we've seen a very high spike in direct traffic to our site.<p>i've attached pictures below:<p>http://i40.tinypic.com/1zv3jn4.jpg<p>http://i39.tinypic.com/15qogop.jpg<p>we basically jumped from 5000 a day to 15000 a day with most of the increase being targetted towards only 2 of our pages with high bounce rates and small "avg time on site".<p>any one else experience this? i look at the logs and the traffic is not from one IP. the top 30 big hitters are all different IP and subnets.<p>any google experts willing to shed some light on this?<p>Thanks!
Direct traffic has nothing to do with google and if it's only two pages, it's probably not a search engine.<p>You should be able to check analytics for the user-agent, legitimate search robots have an identifiable user agent string. Can you give more information about the nature of those two pages?
Is it organic traffic from Google? or Direct traffic?
You mentioned both in your question.<p>If it is organic traffic from Google, we too noticed a change in Google traffic around that date to our various sites. It may be a recent change in Google algorithm worked in favour of your pages.
