Here's data that may cool the social marketing fervor: The performance of social media referral traffic lags far behind e-mail and search, per a report from cloud-based technology company Monetate. Monetate reports that, for the second quarter, the Average Order Value (AOV) of website traffic from search was $26.21 higher than traffic from social networks. Meanwhile, e-mail campaigns delivered a web traffic AOV that was $18.53 higher than traffic from social networking websites such as Facebook, Pinterest and Twitter.
