Top SEO Services - The 7 Best Ways to Get TrafficPosted by Sullivan Tennant on May 30th, 2021 There is a myth that traffic is hard to obtain. It is not. Traffic is traffic. This is a click on a computer. However, good website traffic is hard to get, good web traffic that has a fair proportion of charge card wielding, want what you 've got, eager buyers, well that's another story. Listed below are my top 7 methods to attract some of those eager beavers over to your house: 1. Advertise - No surprises here, however the opportunities on the internet are pretty much limitless. Get some good expert help unless you know what you're doing, but Google AdWords is a fantastic place to start. Then there's banner advertising, classified ads, ads on blog networks, ads on individual sites and blogs, offline advertising in newspapers and magazines, eBay classifieds, trust me, I could on and on. This is another good place to start your advertising campaign. The important thing to remember when buying advertising is to 'buy relevant' i.e. it is far better to have 1 visitor who wants everything you have against 100 visitors who just drift on by, without so much as clicking on one of your 'call to actions' (such as your newsletter subscribe, buy button etc.) 2. Buy traffic - Yep, you can buy traffic. 100,000 visitors for so much. Buyer beware. Pop under traffic needs specific offers to make it work and a lot of other 'network' traffic will be a lot of rubbish. As always, when purchasing traffic or advertising, ensure that you have adequate tracking codes in place to make sure you understand where these potential customers and revenue are coming from (otherwise you'll make some bad judgment calls later on). The other big tip is to buy small and test. Then if it works and only then, scale up. Last word of advice (I promise): Visitor numbers are vanity, profit is sanity. 3. Forums, comments, articles, Pr announcements, newsletters, tell a friend - I believe I've covered many of these options elsewhere but usually do not underestimate the power of these strategies. In case you have Google Analytics or Fruity Plugins installed you'll soon see where your traffic is coming from. One well placed forum post can perform wonders for your sagging washing line of a visitor graph! Get someone to register with your weekly newsletter and you have 52 opportunities to obtain them back to your website. Give them a reason to take action. Don't forget one of my own favorites, the tell a pal option. Do you have one on your site? 4. get more info existing website - Too simple really. Buy a preexisting web-site or perhaps a recently expired domain. Make sure they have PR, back links and existing visitors. Then either put in a mini site with a web link to your target site or put a 301 (permanent redirect) to your target site. 5. Recruit the best SEO expertise it is possible to afford - Seo is a maze. A big one. Unless you are going to make a career out of it, hire someone in. It will be a heap cheaper in the long run, especially when you put your learning and 'making mistakes' time, together with the lost opportunity costs into the overall equation.Like it? Share it!
