Thanks to ALL of you, Steemit is growing fast!
There is an important difference between total visitors to a site and unique ones. In this case the 18.66mn include the multiple times a person visited the website. Therefore, as a good Steemian you probably connect everyday which will make you count for a total of 30 visits.
Therefore, how many "unique users" does Steemit has?

This is useful to know how people use the Steem platform. Initiatives like eSteem (mobile app), busy.org, Zappl (Twitter like), utopian-io… will probably help the community to grow on mobile phones.
Be Careful with the Number of Visits
Also, remember that if you connect from a different device (home/work computer, mobile phone, tablet) you'll count as a "new visitor" on each of these devices.
So as an example, let's say you connected at home, at work and in the subway. You would represent 3 visits out of these 800k+ Daily Visits.
2. MARKETING MIX
Organic Search is still improving and represents 45,7% of the incoming Traffic. This is an increase +4% compared to September. Organic search is when people research on Google. As the number of quality bloggers on Steemit increase, our content has a higher probability of being listed in Google's Top results.
