Sourced Traffic

Sourced Traffic is web traffic to your web site which, typically, a marketing firm or a business has control over and can use query string parameters in the inbound URL to help better understand demographics around how the visitor came to the site.

A sourced traffic URL may look like this:

https://www.example.com/?crsource=about
https://www.example.com/?crcat=web&crsource=Google&crcpn=AW2026_Simple_A&crkw=make+money

And sourced traffic may come from:

- Your own content (blogs, articles, external resources) - Content published to other media or discussion sites (social media) - Advertising and marketing campaigns owned and published by your business
