Lack of Traffic from Indiblogger

I used to get regular referral traffic from Indiblogger. Not a big number but a visible number in two digits at least.

But in recent weeks I am seeing the number dwindle although I have been more active than ever. I am posting every 2-3 days and getting 20-30 votes for each post. But on Google Analytics, I can see a grand total of only 1 visit from Indiblogger in the last 7 days. 

Has something changed? Can people vote without actually visiting the site now?

I'm sure people can vote without visiting the site. I've gotten 10+ votes often with just one or two visits to the site.

So it seems Narzary. I get the same feeling ocassionaly. 

Another thing about Indiblogger is that I am uncomfortable in classifying & sub-classifying my post. For example I saw an white Egret catching its prey, photographed & wrote a narretive. While posting In indiblogger I could not classify it.

In any case I find this site less user friendly.

@Harsh Wardhan :There's something called Wildlife under sub category.. That perfectly matches your post. Not sure what other category you require?

People will simply click on your blog link for namesake so that they can vote in the hopes you will vote them back. I am sure a handful of them is a genuine vote, but would you give importance to such traffic? If it is in influx, the bounce rate will go for a toss as it is.

What you are saying is right but it is not really a significant part of my traffic (at max 1% to 2 %). So, a few dozen more from indiblogger is not going to damage my bounce rate. But having said that, I'd like to have those few.  I mean, what is the point of the entire exercise if people are not even visiting the site?

Not reading the post & pushing Like button happens on other social sites as well which is irritataing. Well I dont have ad sense so referrals are not that important to me. But this remains an irritant.

As for sub classification Murli, on sevral occasions I decided to place a post in a particular sub section by toss of a coin.
