Do you have search traffic on your forum/

[Nomad]

Currently, I am running 4 forums, one is brand new (I launched just a month ago), however, I have been running one forum for almost two years. I don't get search traffic on my three forums that are relatively new, but on my old forum, I receive search traffic, I receive traffic mainly from the Baidu search engine.

Yes, a lot of forums that I have either run or co-run have ended up with search traffic on them. Baidu seems to be one of the more common ones I noticed that seems to crawl sites quite frequently, but I have in the past noticed I had also got ones such as Google, Bing and Yahoo. I see it as I am doing something right when I see the search traffic in my list, and I just continue what I am doing.

On my Google Webmaster console, I see a few clicks here and there on my search results, but mainly impressions. GoogleBot is usually the only bot I ever see on my forum, but I don’t think it’s necessarily always indexing content and is there for the ads.
