Partners should pay close attention to the STR and CPU. These values allow the assessment of the effectiveness of the tools and sources used to attract clients. The higher these numbers, the better the quality of the partner's traffic.
Good-quality traffic is targeted traffic, i.e., visitors who are using search not out of idle curiosity but to find and book tickets to a place of interest. This kind of traffic can be obtained from tourism-related sites and blogs.
