Mostly "other"... Jan 23

...but it highly depends on whether there is a crawler active at a given moment (and visits my profile a hundered times or so in the course of a few days).

What difference does it make? Jan 23

Don't know, don't care. ProZ doesn't generate any decent prospects.

I don't know if my profile played a big role in this, but I have found various good, long-term clients through ProZ, mostly agencies.

I don't really care enough to count, but "Direct Link/Unknown" seems to be the winner after a half-second look.

Most of those "viewers" seem to be just spiders/crawlers/bots used by search engines for indexing purposes.
Actually they should be automatically filtered out, but it seems (also) this is not working properly.
