Recent research from Hitwise has shown that Banking and Government are leading the way in social network referrals to their websites.

Social Networks & search have experienced the most growth in referrals in the last year, at the expense of email, portal & news referrals.

This should be a wake-up call to those companies not yet looking at social media strategies, and to those relying on more ‘traditional’ online marketing methods.
