Direct navigation traffic comes from users typing a domain name directly into their browser's address bar rather than using a search engine. Premium, memorable domain names with common words attract more direct navigation traffic.
Example
weather.com receives millions of visitors from people typing 'weather.com' directly — this type-in traffic has significant commercial value.
