5 Ways To Boost Traffic To Your Website




By Mike Morin

Getting traffic to your website can be one of the hardest
things to do. To get traffic from popular search engines you
have to know a lot about SEO (Search Engine Optimization),
which keywords to use, and where to place your coding. Here
are 5 useful tips on how to boost traffic to your website.

1. Articles. Articles are great tools to get targeted
traffic to your website. The bonus about this traffic is
that they're going to your website having just read
something you wrote. So these visitors would rank as highly
targeted, and more importantly highly interested. Once you
write a great article you can submit them to article
websites all over the internet. Most importantly when you
write articles you prove to the audience that you're an
expert in the field. That's the mindset that readers have
when they're reading articles. So if they read your article,
enjoyed it, and click to your website then they'll read your
website knowing that you're an expert in the field.

2. Forums. Forums are great places to learn about all kinds
of things. It's also a great place to share information with
other people. In forums you're allowed to have a signature
line which is a spot that you can put your website URL (most
websites will only allow you to post your URL in your
signature line). So every post you contribute has a link to
your website. Also, search engine crawlers love forums. One
important thing about forums is to sign up your username as
your actual name. You will get more people clicking to your
website if you actually use your real name. This way people
have more trust in you, and will more likely visit your
website knowing that it's your creation.

3. Submit to Search Engines. Most search engines have a
submit url page, where you can send your URL, website title,
and a description. This will help the search engine know
that your website exists. Once they find your site, then you
don't have to do anything else. The spiders will
automatically serach through you're whole website (unless
you specify them not to).

4. Tell your friends and family. This is probably not the
most targeted traffic, and most likely won't convert to
sales, but it's always great to hear feedback from your
friends and family.

5. Offline Sources. There are many ways to promote your
website offline. bumper stickers, hats and shirts with your
URL on it, at the bottom of letters you send out to people.
The list is endless.

Of course there are other ways to get traffic to your
website. The main thing is to keep learning. Keep learning
new ways to get traffic to your website. Learn new ways to
improve the clickthrough rates to your website. Soon you'll
have more traffic everyday.
