Measuring is smart because it enables you to focus on what is working and what you should probably ditch. I have to agree that spam followers on Twitter can skew numbers though. I stopped automatically adding everyone who followed me for that reason. Trouble is, it takes forever to check out new followers and decide whether they're worth adding.

We expect social media channels (esp. company blog and Twitter) to be amongst the top ten referrers to a website.
