Traffic Generation Tips

If you’ve got traffic coming to your site, you’re 99% there. The other 1% is what you do with that traffic, but if you have to traffic – you can figure out the rest. After getting the traffic you just need to convert it into subscribers and customers . . . but that’s the easy part. The important thing is getting the traffic and sustaining it.

Here are Some Tips for Generating Website Visitors:

These are the best and fastest ways to get free visitors coming to your site:

• Web 2.0 Methods
• Articles Directories
• Video Marketing

And here’s how to use each method…

Web 2.0

By web 2.0 we mean any site where the users actually create the content. The exciting thing about Web 2.0 sites is that you get to add your own content, and it becomes part of these sites. Because these sites get so much traffic, Google and the other search engines treat these sites with greater importance in their algorithms. This means the content on them gets “indexed” faster and with more weight. So, if you place links to your own site inside your content, you get a search engine ranking benefit from those links. The direct traffic from the Web 2.0 sites themselves is only part of the benefit. There are many more web 2.0 traffic tactics we don’t have time to get into here, but this will get you started.

Articles Sites

The next thing we want to talk about is article marketing. Article directories fall under the category of web 2.0 sites. Article directories are sites where users (including you) can upload articles they have written. Just as with the other web 2.0 sites, having your content included gives you immediate traffic and search engine ranking. You also get the extra benefit of other users taking your article and putting it on their site, and along with your article, they have to include your author information and a link back to you – so you get more free traffic and SEO benefits. Here are a couple article marketing traffic tips:

• First, spend the time to determine your keywords
• Tailor the content of your article for the keywords
• Be sure to link to your site on the keywords you’ve chosen. Do this inside the article itself and in your author’s bio.

Video Marketing

Our discussion would not be complete without talking about video. Once again, this is really a sub-set of web 2.0,  and just as article directories give you great SEO benefits, and allow others to redistribute your content on their sites, video sharing sites give you all these same benefits. The extra top secret benefit of video marketing is that it’s much easier to rank for competitive keywords than in any other medium.

Here’s how to get free traffic using video…

• Sign up for YouTube
• When people view your videos, you want them to visit your site, so turn all the other modules in your profile off
• Use the tags in your profile to enter the keywords you want to rank for
• Make sure to include in your profile a link to your site
• Upload at least 1 video
• In the title, the description and the tags for each video, include your main keywords
