How long did it take you to get a lot of repeat visitors? Did most of your early visitors come back?

According to Google Analytics, I'm not getting a very high amount of return visits. And to be honest, I'm not sure if the 'returning visitor data' doesn't also include repeat visitors that came back once on the same day.

Like if I got 150 visits, then only 30 of those are repeat visitors.

none of my visitors come from SEO, but from either a YouTube reference or Digg (No I dont spam them).

Is your content likely to attract repeat visitors? or is it something that people would only ever look at once.

Is your target audience likely to keep coming back?

does your site need visitors to return?

etc, etc

hellz yeah I need return visitors. I can't advertise everyday.

Here are my latest stats. I did no advertising today and here's what I got:
Stats are as of 11 Pm this evening.

95 hits
23 of those hits come from direct referrel
58 of those hits were from Digg.com (mind you I advertised once yesterday)

This website should be able to sustain itself much better without so much promotion. This website is of slutty girls on youtube, it should promote itself damnit.

I update this site daily mind you with quite a few fresh videos.

It does have a certain appeal. But there are lots of site that have this kind of material, how is yours different? i.e. why should anyone go back to your site? Especially when similar sites host their own videos and so don't suffer the loss in video quality that youtube gives. Doing this gives them a stronger identity too, until some **** records their video, rebrands it and uploads it to youtube themselves.

Maybe potential visitors see that your videos are on youtube, jump to youtube and continue searching there, where they can see not just your videos but your competitors' videos too, without the inconvenience of having to visit your sites.

Why not? If you need traffic and visitors then you have to.

But they are not "fresh", just copies from YouTube

You know they only keep track of visitors for 3 months? So your visitors might of come 5 months later.

I think the main reason behind not getting high amount of returning visitors is -Visitors might not be getting the relevant content for which they previously visited ?
