These are the Google Analytics results I see for my website. I started this website 2 months back in celebrity niche. I daily get 70% traffic from organic search, 20% direct and rest from social. The users are increasing daily. I have not created any backlinks for my site yet. But I have optimized the posts with Yoast SEO.

I want to know whether these statistics are good or bad.

Also, any tips on how I can increase the traffic to my site are most welcome :)
 
That bounce rate looks suspiciously low.
 
Stats look good!

I suggest either reinforcing your biggest traffic source of strengthening your weakest link.

So that would be finding out where your organic search traffic is coming from and investing more time improving that.

OR

Setting up solid social profiles and improving your follower base. Then promoting your content there. PLUS search engines love sites with a great social media foundation.

sorry can you explain this part with easier words to me? I am noob
 
My bounce rate has been as low as 6% after a lot of work :)

Damn, really? The best sites I've worked on have had bounce rates at 50%. I just did some work on a site with a 5% bounce rate and it was because they had deployed an event tag wrong.

Ha now I'm worried! It started off at 60% and I've gradually got it down to normally 9%. Going to check my tags now haha...

This is really all relative :

- Landing page with main objective to fill out a form (let's assume it is not tracked as a GA event) 100% bounce if there are no links to other pages
- Branded term traffic will also likely produce a low bounce rate as users search for your brand and will likely look at more than one page (probably land on homepage, but looking for product X etc.)
- Structure your content in Part1 , 2,3... link to the next part as well and keep the user wanting to read more --> lower bounce rate.

So his content must be pretty good, but realize that users looking for "celebrity" related stuff are looking for gossip etc. so if you play it smart you will have them reading a bunch of pages.

Now, how do you monetize would be the more important question to me ;) I'd take 10 users and $XXX+ over 1000 and $0 ;)

PS just checked a few sites I have access to and it really goes from 10% (ecom) to 60% (charity) , so it all depends on niche, CTA etc. to state whether it is good/bad.

Good luck with your site

Well, my website is all about celebrity gossip, photos and videos. Once a user visits to my site they generally stay and view 4-5 galleries on average. So the bounce rate has not passed 50% to date. I hope that is ok.

Thanks for your detail answer. I do have a question about monetizing my site. I am planning to go for google adsense. For that I am not sure how many users I would need to earn some money out of google adsense. I am a noob when it's comes to monetizing. Any thoughts?

Ah, that would make sense then.
 
If, but only if, the bounce rate is real ( not generated by an error ), it is great! Usually, a website who gets traffic from Social Media ( over 75% ) have a bounce rate over 42%. But, in this case, the bounce rate is under 40% because the traffic is organic.
 
I think the stats look really good IMO.
Bounce rate is about 40% which is not bad per say, and that means that 6 out of 10 people who visited your site did look at another page or another thing from your site, which is good for SEO terms as well.
If your site is already doing well, just make sure that you only use quality links in your link building so that those links will continue to contribute value and not the other way around.
 
statistics is good, to get more traffic do SEO (don't forget about on-page SEO for every new post and get relevant backlinks from niche sources regularly)
