    Journey of a thousand miles begins with.....

    Seriously, if you want traffic, just get it. Buy it. Using social media and SEO will send you some fairly targeted visitors. But I'm guessing you want both quality and quantity, and pay per click (PPC) is almost sure to do that things, providing you know HOW to do that as well.

    Are you looking to buy traffic or use free traffic?

      I wouldn't jump in and start using paid traffic right away until you monetize the site and can get at least breakeven ROI.

      Otherwise you'll find that you spend a ton of money, run out of budget, and then be left with no traffic anyway.

      Start with some long tail keywords and SEO for the local search engines, then try some content marketing (YouTube etc) and post to social media.

      If you need training just look around in this forum for people giving it away in their signature links.

    Man if you're new I recommend to you instagram.

    Just upload pictures about your niche (EDM)

    Use hashtags for the pictures that relates to your niche

    Set your instagram bio as your website

    Targeted traffic will go to your site.

    If you want international traffic, do english hashtags. If you want polish traffic, just use polish hashtags

    Will be fairly good targeted traffic

    Hope this helps,

    MeelisM

    For your niche specifically, I'd suggest you go to Fiverr, find few sellers that are school age in Warsaw, Kraków, ŁÃ³dź, Wrocław, Poznań, Gdańsk, Katowice, Bydgoszcz, and Lublin. Those should do it. And have then go post few fliers where your target demographic will hang out.

    I dont know if theres something else to try to find kids for that, like Polish version of Craigslist.

    But thats best way to get your kind of traffic. If your site is good whoever you reach will link it on FB and get you lot more free traffic for minimal initial investment.

    My suggestion to you is learn to build a list if you can build a list of prospects interested in your niche and you can provide them useful information and solution you will not only build trust and authority but you will always have traffic on demand. To build your list you can use both free and paid methods. Free methods include forum marketing, video marketing, blogging, paid methods can include solo ads, banner ads, and ppc. Before you venture off into paid marketing always start low and if your off converts look at scaling it.

    Contact Vanillaskyy and see if he can find some easy to rank keywords in your niche. Then contact Cesarseo or somebody on SEO Clerks to rank.


    You could try setting up a Facebook page for your site and use promoted post to groups which contain people interested in your niche.
