I'm not sure I understand the big "natural" source comment. No they are not your typical TGP surfer...and they may not surf link lists but since they are finding my sites looking for keywords like "sex", "fuck", "dildo", "threesome", etc. I consider them a pretty good source for a porn customer. Because they tag rather than bookmark, because they don't come from a SE, but from a tagging resource they aren't interested in the same thing that someone who types the same search terms in google?
Maybe I've been smoking to much dope, but I think the technorati traffic is much more valuable than any other traffic I get. They do tag, which creates natural backlinks, which then in return brings in more SE traffic. How does someone who only bookmark your site in their browser help you? They do buy...although I will admit I think they are less likely to buy on impulse. They are simply the new wave of customers and tapping into their mode of using the internet is keying into the future.
