Look, its obvious isn’t? Without a ton of traffic to your site you aren’t going to get any sales or any leads.Over at WebmasterFX.com, the number one question I receive from my clients is “How do I get more traffic to my site?” I’m about to let you know some easy ways to get visitors flocking to your site starting today. Lets look at some obvious but often overlooked tips:
-Get a Killer Domain Name.People will never forgeta catchy domain name. Be sure to choose a short and easy to remember domain name that is appropriate to your business and has a nice ring to it. Remember the domain name is your online brand. Upload Fresh and useful content.These days people are banner blind. They want more than ads. Give them information they can’t find anywhere else, and give it to them for free. Give them the content they want and need. If you do don’t know what it is, Ask them.
- Get yor site seen by the Search Engines.Search engines bring more than 75% of traffic to most web sites. You can submit your site all day long but the best way to get seen is to get links on quality relevant sites. The search engines will find you within days. You can seek out both one way links from other sites and also reciprocal link exchanges with other webmasters. Just stay away from those nasty link farms!
- Pay For Top Spots.The quickest way to get website traffic without trying too hard is to pay for it. These advertisements would be posted on prime locations or banners of websites.Banners are cheap and are great for branding, thogh don’t expect a ton of click throughs. Popular websites like leading newspapers and search engines would provide immediate recognition and visibility to their customers. If you have the cash, spend it. Many don’t or won’t.
Join communities.Communities allow you to build a relationship with people. Once you have a relationship established people will trust your website and become loyal followers. All you have to do is interact with people who are interested in your site’s subject and then recommend them to it. Some online communities include Digg, Yahoo Answers, and specific forums.
Repeating Traffic – Emails.All these other methods have something that only email can provide, and that is getting the same people to visit your website. When you promote with articles, the person will probably only see your site once, that’s it. With emails you can have people returning every single time.
- Submit Articles.Write your own article just like this one and submit it to e-zines, websites and magazines that accept article submissions. Be sure to include your business and contact information and website address in the resource box.
Viral eBooks.This is a very unique method. All you have to do is write a short report or book that provides people with valuable information. Then include links back to your website in the eBook. I recommend writing at least 10 pages. The twist to this is to allow others to hand out your eBook to their friends and customers.
Many people will take you up on the offer and your eBook will spread like a virus. This is why the term viral is used. You can even submit your book to eBook directories.
