Social network traffic or Search engine traffic?

Hey everyone, today I was thinking of how search engine optimization is very important, but I hear social networking can bring as good or even better traffic than search engines. Right now for my blog I been optimizing it and keeping it search engine friendly with tags, relevant links, anchor text, and etc, but recently I have been leaning more towards the social networking side.

I noticed from my blog statistics people that search for something and reach my blog usually leave faster than a visitor from social network like MySpace or something. I believe social networking is a good traffic generating strategy because I can create a profile, connect with people, and build relationships faster rather than waiting to get ranked by Google.

With connections to many people anyone anyone can place a link to a site on a profile, and people are will more likely be interested in what leads to that link. And with this strategy people can use the power of influence to create communities and of course leads.

To summarize everything here I believe search engines are great for massive traffic and social networking can be just as great and maybe even better, for search engines will automatically find sites that are popular and with strong traffic from social networks.

What do you guys think because I could be wrong?
