Is it possible to find out where traffic is coming from on someone else website?

I want to know where the new buyers are coming from who are interested in outsourcing. Attached are some of the pages they would be looking at.

Who are visiting these pages and where are they coming from:

You cannot see there Analytical data but you can get a idea of their referral traffic from open site explorer and their organic keywords / landing pages by including them in your keyword research.

There are other tools out there that will give you some insights into competitor traffic as well.

SimilarWeb (www.similarweb.com) is a great one that will break down an estimate of traffic sources for a domain. They have quite a good supply of data, and I have found their estimates to be pretty accurate.

Try semrush that will give you an idea of how much paid vs organic traffic they have

[ClaytonJ]

iStorm & David have nailed the answer, you should use a combination of semrush & similarweb.  I also use moz to review backlinks - as many will be referrals.

So you have three to cross check. Similarweb gives you the "easy answer" however it should then be cross referenced with moz and semrush - to get a stronger understanding.

Leaving aside referrals similarweb - also has a display advertising function, which offers guidance.

The straight answer to this is NO! You cannot look in to analytics data and see who are visiting these pages and where are they coming from but yes you can always look in to their back link profile and see which websites are linking to those pages and guess accordingly.

Just a thought!
