None of the pages on my site have back links but they are getting about 30 hits per day. How can I increase that organically without back links?

    You can create a video about your site and submit it to various video sharing sites across the internet.

      I second this but would add implementing steps to rank it on the 1st page of Google. I've had nothing but success with this.

    You can create more organic traffic without backlinks by having perfect on-page SEO with each page specifically targeting low competition keyword phrases. I know some people think it is impossible to rank without backlinks but we have several case studies where we have done it for some pretty competitive search terms. Of course, you can rank much faster if you have great on-page SEO AND backlinks.

    I really can't be much more specific about how to perfectly optimize a web page. It's not exactly the type of thing that can be quickly stated in a forum thread. We have a 5,000 word article written about how to optimize a web page but have not published it yet. We are still trying to decide whether to publish it as a blog article or break it up into pieces and add it as Pro's Edge content in our training course.

    That's almost like asking how to get more electricity from solar panels when the sun is not shining.

    Why not skip the thought, and go straight to creating more backlinks?

    Organic results do not happen just because.

    I think you should push more content on Social example on Facebook, Twitter, G+, Instagram,...With this way, you still don't need the backlinks, however if your contents are high quality enough, many people will share them for you, then your website will get a lot of traffic and also brand awareness. I think so.

    better content, social media, youtube... but if I were you, I'd focus on back links too.. it really helps you get more traffic.. if not, you could bolster your traffic with ultimatewebtraffic or trafix, but no promises...

    Set your on-page SEO strongly!
    Without link building then you can go with the social media promotion that will get you more visitors.
    Also, you can try with PPC to get the good amount of traffic.

    I think build backlink is the best way to get more traffic. Beside you can creat video about your website and upload on youtube channel. Youtube is also effective way to get more traffics.

    1. Add Schema Markup to Your Website
    To put it simply, schema markup is code you place on your landing pages so when they show up in search results, the search engine displays the information that’s most relevant, increasing your click through rate.
    2. Write a Reconsideration Request to Google
    If you’ve got a niche site you’ve been running for a while that saw some negative fall out from one or a few of Google’s search algorithm updates, all hope is not lost—even if you were involved in black hat backlink building.
    3. Get Serious About Content Distribution
    If content is king, then distribution is queen: it might be an over-stated mantra, but it’s true.

    Thanks guys. I appreciate all the feedback.

    I am getting a clear message that back links are really important. I just don't really know where to start with that. Being a total beginner I have this idea that its all about signing up to forums and posting a comment with a link to my own website. That feels wrong to me. But I guess there are more reputable ways, like writing articles for other sites?

      A relevant forum link will more than likely lead to direct traffic but to help your site organically not so much.

      Guest posting on good sites will work.

      There are lots of methods to get backlinks - have you analysed your top ranked competitors to see how they have obtained theirs?

        Hi there James,

        No I had not looked. But I did have a look now. I see almost all of their back links are just to press release websites. Many of them are no follow links. I am under the impression that links from these so called free press release sites and not well respected and do not do much to increase ranking.

        BTW I am ranking higher than my closest competitors, without me having backlinks.

          Good press release distribution for a new site can be part of an overall strategy but the links aren't particularly powerful no.

          Ok, you need to uncover more KW's if they are there. It might also just be a case that the trickels of traffic you are currently receiving organically might be it and look to other avenues for traffic.

    Increasing traffic on your website without backlinks can be a tough deal but it's still possible . In my view if your content has higher quality and you are using social media platforms to promote your site then you have a chance. But there are a lot of ways to do it. For me personally image based advertisements has always helped me to attract descent amount of traffic on my website. Sometimes I use different GIF's as well on my Facebook page to spice up my product by carefully using different contemporary funny stuff. Try it out and see how it works out for you.

    Cheers

    You must need to create back links because Back Links are important to drive traffic on your site.
    The other option is to perform social media marketing or Pay To Google (PPC) or any other search engine where you want to target.
    But first you may define your goals, targets and etc.

    Yes you can rank higher without many backlinks.

    Although having a lot of high quality backlinks helps make it easy to rank high on Google, but everyone forget the fact that:

    1. Backlinking is just one metric out of many that Search Engine uses to rank web page
    2. Backlinking is actually the "after-fact" of a high quality content, not the first signal of ranking high. If a content is high quality, THEN a lot of backlinking will happen.

    Given the 2 facts above, you can totally rank very high (I'm talking about top 10) without a lot of juicy backlinks by:

    a. Create awesome content and share them on social media (social shares are also considered backlinks)

    b. High Quality and Good Content will automatically keep your visitors engage -> Low Bounce Rate. Just make sure no annoying popups are served on your page to keep low bounce rate.

    c. Make sure your page loads quickly and mobile optimized. This helps with the bounce rate as well.

    d. Do all the On-Page SEO that you know of to optimize for the keywords so search engine knows what keyword your page should be indexed for as well as targeting the right audience.
