The biggest question site owners are asking these days is “how do I create traffic?” It is absolutely not really that hard to do. It just takes consistent, persistent action on your part. Don’t ever quit.
There are some of ways to increase your traffic. Here are some of the most common methods.
- Learn Search Engine Optimization – this is apparently the most important aspect that you want to get traffic. Search engine traffic is highly targeted traffic of people who are searching the web for a specific item. If they find your site after searching, you’re almost guaranteed a sale or at a minimum a “bookmark for later”.
- Trade links with other websites – It’s paramount to get your website name out there on the Internet. So trade links with many other sites, even your competitors! Human beings really do look at those links pages and they will find their way to your site from another site.
- Post on Message Boards – When you post on highly trafficked message boards, BE SURE to put your site link in your signature! This is a highly effective form of marketing, especially if the message board you are posting to is related to your site content.
- Use email signatures – Make it effortless for your customers to contact you! When they write to you and ask for more information, be sure that you are using a signature with your site URL and name inside of it. That way if they want to retrieve it later, it’s easier for them than having to memorize your URL and open a web browser.
- Join Yahoo Groups – This is the same as Message Boards. Join groups that pertain to your site’s content and advertise your site there.
- Post on free Classifieds sites – Sites like Craig’s List or other free advertising classified sites will accept your site for free! Just do a Google search for “free classifieds” and you’ll see a heap of sites come up where you can promote your site! There is also cheap programs on the market to post your advertisements to many different sites with a single click of your mouse.
- Buy Ad space – If your monthly allowance allows, you can buy some ad space for your site. Find another site that is pertinent to your site’s content and ask them what their advertising prices are.
- Submit your website to Directories – If your website is a site about “boating” for example, do a Google search for “boating directories” and see how many directories are out there that pertain to your subject matter on your site. Most of these directories will accord free submissions.
- Write Articles – Writing articles that are appropriate for your site is another superior way to get your website out there. Just write a short and sweet, informative article of 5-6 paragraphs and submit it to any website that accepts article submissions and make sure that your article includes a link back to your website in your “author bio”.
- Submit Press Releases – Even if your site is a small work from home website (i.e. “Susie’s Candles”) it IS important! Let’s say your candle site released a new candle called “Vanilla Cream”. Submit a Press Release about it, I’m serious!! You can do a Google search for “submit press release” and a myriad sites will be found.
- Have great interactive content – People will bookmark your website if you have interactive and dynamic content. Have polls, Message Boards, news items, guest books, item of the day….whatever you can think of! Just make the site relevant and have good SUBSTANCE in your site content. Don’t encumber it with silly animated graphics, sounds, etc. That just makes it look like you had nothing else to fill your site up with but this annoying stuff.
