Some Ways To Drive Traffic To Your Website
I know many of you struggle with getting traffic and to be honest, I do as well. But, I have a few ideas of how to drive traffic and you can add to this list if you'd like for those that are new and just starting out.
Driving traffic is work and it takes time, I don't believe in making money an "auto pilot" without a lot of work FIRST! You have to put some time and effort into getting the traffic you want.
First, keywords are the most important! If you are going after keywords that have a ton of competition you will NOT get the traffic you want quickly. I posted an article on Ezine and the day after it went live I it was on the first page of Google! Now, it wasn't at the top BUT it was on the first page! Those are the kinds of keywords you want to go after.
Here is how I find my keywords. Let's say your niche is "Time Management" First I would use Google Keyword Tool and type in "Time Management" to see what keywords come up. I found one that looks good, "time management exercises". This keyword gets 1,600 hits every month and why I would choose this keyword is because of my next step.
I use Firefox and I use the plugin SEOQuake and then I put my keyword phrase into Google with the quotes around it like this, "time management exercises" and then I see what the page ranks are of every site that comes up on the first page. I like mostly 0's but 1's and 2's are okay but I don't like messing with a lot of 3', 4's and above.
For the keyword phrase, "time management exercises" the page ranks on the first page look like this: 2-2-1-2-0-0-0-0-0-0 Excellent! You can write some articles and put them in the top 5 directories and you will be on the first page of Google within 24 hours! Do this with about 20 keywords and you have some good traffic coming your way!
Okay, so once you have your keyword phrases that pass the above test (I would try and have 20 or more) then you will go about doing the following:
1. Write as many articles as possible and put them in the top directories
Ezine Articles
Articles Base
Buzzle
Search Warp
Article Alley
Go Articles
Web Source
Article Set
Web Pro News
Amazines
2. Make videos out of every article and put them in the top video directories
YouTube
Metacafe
Break
Google Video
Dailymotion
Yahoo! Video
Revver
Vimeo
VidiLife
Sticka
3. Make a Squidoo page using every keyword phrase that you can without hypens but if you have to then use hyphens.
4. Social bookmark your site and if you have a blog then at least 10 of your posts. You can do this or you can have others do it for you. The best way to do this is with Socialmarker dot com.
5. Make Google Knols for all your keyword phrases that you found.
6. Comment on other peoples blogs that are in the same niche as you and actually offer real advice that is useful. These days it seems most blogs are no follow but if you can make some relationships with others in your niche you can both do a blog post for each other as guest bloggers and gain some links that way.
7. I used to go to Yahoo Answers and answer questions there and you can leave your source link in your answer and this would gain some links and a bit of traffic.
8. Make podcasts and then do the following with them:
Record the podcast.
Have the pocast transcribed
Have the pocast posted in your blog
Post the transcription to your blog and link to it from the podcast post
Add a photo on top of the audio to turn it into a video file or turn it into a powerpoint and then make the video
Upload each video file (of 10 minute lengths) to your YouTube channel with a good title and description
Add annotations over each video. Put them at the beginning of the video file linking to the previous video and one at the end of the video linking to the next in episode series.
Syndicate the video(s) to the top video directories
Submit the blog post as well as the first video in the podcast series on YouTube, to social bookmarking sites to build some links pointing to them.
Post a link to the blog post on Twitter
Post a link to the blog post to Facebook
E-mail your list to let them know about new podcasts.
Make sure the new podcast shows on your iTunes page correctly.
Give the transcription to a writer. Have them turn it into an article (or a couple articles) that are about 500 words each.
Submit these articles to the top article directories.
Well, that is what I have, what do you all do that works to drive traffic to your sites?
