This post is for anyone who has a website and is struggling to get traffic to it. The purpose of this post is to give you free methods that will bring traffic to your website in short as well as long term.

One of the most basic things to realize if you have a new website is that, it will take some time before you start getting continuous flow of traffic to your website. The more effort you put in the better it will be for you but it will still take some time. No matter how good you are, some things just take time.

"You can't produce a baby in one month by getting nine women pregnant." - Warren Buffet

So, if you're ready to begin, here are some of the things that will help you get traffic to your website:

1: Produce Valuable Content

First and probably the most important things is to produce valuable content. Not only it will help you get more traffic, it will also help you build trust and make more sales.

How will valuable content help you get more traffic?

First of all, it will get more shares. The only reason people will share your content with their friends is if they like it and the only way they'll like it is if it is valuable. It could be funny, helpful, informational or whatever but it needs to give the audience some sort of value.

Secondly, it will have better rank in search engine. A lot of people run after Google, trying to do everything possible to get a good rank but not realizing that Google runs after value.

Think about it, the two biggest factors for ranking in Google are first, keywords (anyone can do it) and second, backlinks (especially from quality sources).

Now anyone can add their target keywords on their site and in their content but you can't get backlinks from other big sites if your content sucks. The only reason any authority site will link back to your site within their content is if your site provides value to their readers.

Third reason why you should produce valuable content is, so that you can sustain the traffic coming to your website. Let's say you somehow manage to get traffic to your website (suppose you used paid traffic), but will those visitors stay on your website or visit your site again if they find no value there.

People don't visit your site because of you, they visit because of themselves and if they find no value in exchange of their time and attention why would they ever visit again or why would they share it with their friends?

Now in order to produce valuable content you'll need to understand your audience's need and produce content that they find helpful or interesting.

Stop writing content to impress Google or to get more shares and start writing it for your audience; you'll end up with much better rank and higher shares.

Producing valuable content will automatically enable you to take advantage of two biggest online traffic sources; search engine and social media.

2: Get Some Initial Visitors

Just by constantly producing valuable content you'll end up with a lot of consistent traffic to your site in long term but you'll have to bring some initial visitors to your site or else how would anyone find out about your great content anyways?

In the beginning you'll have to bring few people to your website and then (if they liked your content) they'll tell other people about it and will visit your site again and in this way your site will continue to get more and more visitors. Plus at the same time your site will begin to get mentions on other websites thus building backlinks for you and getting better and better rank in Google (that means more traffic) and this will become a cycle...

More people = more shares + more backlink = even more people

But getting those initial visitors is an important part to begin this cycle.

So, how do you get some initial traffic to your site?

Here I'm gonna give you some techniques you can use:

Social Media

First thing you can do is to share your content on your own social media accounts. Every time you write a new post or produce a new piece of content, share it with your own friends or followers on Facebook or Twitter or LinkedIn.

You can also join Facebook and LinkedIn groups related to your topic and share your posts in those groups.

Other Sources

Another thing you can do is to convert a small part of your post to other formats and share it on different platforms. Like you can make a short video from your post and add it to YouTube and link back to the original post in the description so that anyone who wants to get full content would visit your site.

You can do the same thing in other formats too, like you can convert your post into PDF or PPT and add it to Slideshare or convert it to an infographic and add it to Pinterest etc. (with a link back to your site obviously)

Guest Posting

Third thing you can do is to guest post on other blogs. You can find out blogs similar to your blog but having bigger audience than you, and add guest posts on them with a link back to your content.

Most of the small bloggers will allow you to write a guest post on their blog as long as you're giving value within your content. You can link back to your site somewhere within the content of your guest post or you can link back in the end (in 'about the author' section).

Do yourself a favor and save your time by following these two rules; first of all do not send guest posting request to blogs that don't allow guest posting (check out their blog's rules first) and secondly, don't send requests to huge authority blogs (like Forbes or INC) especially in the beginning they won't accept it. Start with small blogs and as you progress you can begin to write for huge blogs.

Note: Guest posting is not only going to give you some initial traffic it is also a great way of building backlinks and thus by writing guest posts you're increasing your blog's search engine rank in long term.

Forums and Quora

Other than these three things you can use Forums and sites like Quora to get some initial visitors. Find out some of the most popular forums in your niche and join them.

Most of the forums allow you to add a signature (with a link) that's displayed with all your posts. Just add the link back to your site in your signature and start adding posts. Spend 5-10 minutes daily on forums answering other posts and you'll start getting traffic to your site.

You can also use the site Quora. Join Quora and start answering questions related to your topic with a link back to your content wherever it's relevant.

3: Build An Email List

Now the last tip for this post is to build an email list and I suggest that you start building your email list as soon as you start your blog.

Email list is not going to help you with attracting or bringing traffic to your site but it will help you sustain your traffic. Every time someone visits your site, reads your content and leaves it, even if they do have liked your content chances are they'll forget about your site and will never visit again.

To prevent this, you can get their email address when they first visits your site and then every time you create a new post or publish something you can send them an email and bring them back to your site.

Building an email list is a very effective way of growing and maintaining your audience. Think about it, the only people who'll give you their email address are the ones who liked your content and trusted you and thus when you publish a new post they have a much higher chances visiting and reading it (all you have to do is to send them an email to inform them about your new stuff).

Since, your email list subscribers have liked your stuff in first place thus they have a much higher chances of sharing it with their friends and thus bringing more people to your site, which ultimately will lead to more emails and thus more traffic and so on.

The most popular way of getting email addresses is by offering something to your audience in exchange like a book or course etc. Create something valuable related to your topic and offer it to your audience in exchange of their email address.

You can take help from online tools like ConvertKit. It will help you build forms and landing pages to collect emails and create broadcast and automatic email sequences.

Summary

The first and most important thing to build long term traffic is to constantly create valuable content for your audience.
Get some initial visitors to your site from social media, forums, Quora, guest posting etc.
Above all start building an email list from the beginning, it will help you grow your audience to a huge level.

        Quora is the best and most popular questions and answer site. You have a good chance to get more traffic from Quora.
        You have already Quora and now try to be an active member.
        Ask the question and give answers as many as you can per day. Try to give the best answer. Give more take less.
        You can also add the link to your article if it is relevant.
        You can also give the answer of other questions that are not relevant to your niche.
        Thanks, Mytechgoal.

      3000 views per day is quite good if it is continuous, really depends on your audience and product, I mean there aren't that many people into "watercolour drawings of batman in the bath" for example, so if that's your niche I'd be well happy with 3000.

    Too long for the thread opener i hope that discussing the most specific and important part will do. Anyway, spending 5 to 10 mins. daily on the forums is not enough to start getting traffic and worst nothing at all that's the reality. I think Quora is a reputable site in which not just let you drop your link because they are strict in links but more on likely discussions only.

      I like the post and all of the mentioned techniques are good - social media, forums, Quora, but all of them take time. There is no magic formula that will bring you quality traffic without putting the efforts.

      No, Google doesn't treat forum posting as spam. But you should not take forum sites only for backlink building. You can create backlink but only on the relevant forum.
      You should be an active member otherwise forum will ban you as a spammer.

    All good advice but to be realistic on Forums and Quora
    you would need to spend more than 10 minutes a day to
    give answers that are useful.

    I've heard big marketers say that they often spend about
    an hour first thing in the morning doing this before they
    move on to other tasks.

    Having an email list or sending traffic to an email funnel
    of a good affiliate program is essential to make the most
    of this time spent.

    Guest blogs are certainly a good way of bringing traffic to your website. The content topics that you publish have to be relevant, precise and crisp in order to draw the attention of your target audience. Yes, social media has immense potential in drawing traffic, but you ought to check the relevancy of such traffic for increasing conversion of prospective buyers.

    Before starting a blog, do you recommend just winging it and building quality content as time progresses or writing 20-30 quality content before launching a blog and just publish each one daily as you continue to write new content?

    These are some great tips for getting traffic and leads.
    I also believe that building an email workflow to stay in touch with your leads is essential to converting your leads into customers by providing them engaging and informational content. This can be done through creating a process which defines which type of content to be shared with what type of customers.

    Also, forum engagements and quora is an effective method of driving quality traffic as people interact with you on the basis of knowledge you are providing.

    but apart from increasing traffic is not enough, it must affect the desire of appropriate traffic - potential customers, prospects, including: degree of recognition, demand, money, desire thirsty.
    Then convert when they visit so will not waste the visitor source.

      Price does not reflect value. Price and value are two different things. Increase the value in your product, optimize your sales page, and be sure to not skip the lead generation process. As they saying goes, "the lead comes before the sale". If you are direct linking your traffic and hoping for sales then that is same as trying to jump in the ocean to catch fish with your bare hands....it is better to use a rod, reel, line, hook, and bait or at least a net.

    Thanks for the post! Interesting read.
    Just thought of sharing with all of you here an article I wrote quite some time back about using Quora and Reditt as a part of your social strategy. I used it for my site and sure will help yours!

    ARE QUORA & REDDIT A PART OF YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA STRATEGY? ]http://pinchofsocial.com/quora-reddit-part-social-media-strategy

    I am sharing a quick summary of this article here for easy reading and ref

    On one hand, Quora and Reddit are one of the best platforms in terms of active audience and is useful to gauge what people think and are talking about in your industry. On the other hand having them on such platforms may not be in the best interest for your business.

    Here are ways to leverage on these platforms:
    1) Posting a short story can help

    Founder of Silktide, Oliver Emberton, claims that using Quora has been very beneficial to him. By simply posting a short story that he has had for quite some time on Quora, his article found the attention of many authors, book publishers and movie producers that ended up contacting him with book and film offers.

    2) Separate outreach strategy for both

    the key to utilising these platforms effectively is by adding value through your inputs and educating the public instead of trying to hard-sell your services or products

    3) The secret

    is that you€™re not there to promote your services or product but to genuinely help and add value to the community.

    A lot of talk about Quora on this thread, personally never visited the site. looks like that may well have been a major oversight on my behalf. That's what I like about WF picking up useful snippets here and there.

    I appreciated your article. Valuable content, initial visitors and list building are important. Sometimes those basic skills can be overlooked. I might suggest reworking the title of the article though as it it punctuated as a question but really is more of a statement. However, that certainly does not take away from the overall value of the post.

    Just by constantly producing valuable content you'll end up with a lot of consistent traffic to your site in long term
    Not exactly true here. Let's be realistic, if I'm producing the best content ever and don't promote it, then nobody's coming to my site.

    Forums are the best tool to get targeted traffic here, especially if you can pay for a permanent signature link

    Thanks for the mail list tip. I already installed mailchimp but most articles I have read always suggests aweber or getresponse.

    You know, I created a website allowing everybody to follow the changes of apps/games in Appstore and Google play to download it with lowest prices or sometimes free, it also supports people to download file APK for Android operating system in case your phone has any problem to download it from Google play, or make the app's size smaller... I think it has some advantages compared to other relating sites.
    But I'm stuck in how to get traffic from people. Can you take a look my website here and give me some advices? about content or whatever? I'll really appreciate.

    An easy way to bring instant traffic to your website is social sharing, spread the links everywhere and you can even go for paid campaigns in fb, twitter or linkedin. now if you are thinking about long term goals there comes a complicated term - "SEO", look for perfect keywords, generate unique contents, do some on and off page regularly and slowly you will reach better visibility. Thats the best way to generate traffic to your website.

    The most effective way of bringing traffic to your website is through genuine backlinks. Now this comes in a two-fold approach.
    • Gaining backlinks from trusted andhigh authority sites.
    • Creating backlinks through Off page SEO techniques.

    While the first option is relatively complex and requires significant time, the second option is far more viable. A few such Off page approaches include,
    1. Guest Posting/Guest Blogging.
    2. Forum Commenting.
    3. Blog Commenting.
    4. Ad Posting.

    In addition to this On page efforts such as regular blog posts and refreshing website content after certain periods also help in procuring a greater volume of traffic fro Google.

    However, if you are skeptical about writing quality then here is a post, that can help you immensely.

It will take so much time to attract visitors, but if you will do both the process like organic campaign and paid campaign, then it will be much easier for attracting more and more online visitors towards your website.

    Dead on! You put the right method at #1 with Content. Most everything that drives traffic to your website or blog is content driven. Even a simple PPC ad requires content for the ad, the landing page, the ebook you give away, the email series and more.

    Content, Content, Content. I know it's hard work and it takes time to put it all together, but content is the king and will always be in one form or another. While there's a small shift from written content to audio and video, all forms of content matter and make a huge difference with marketing.

    I have always wondered why so many people trying to gain better SEO only want to do the absolute minimum necessary with content. This approach has caused so many to fall from Google's top rankings after working hard to get there.

    Content is the foundation of just about every form of online marketing you will find. Without it, you'll ultimately fail and I would challenge anybody in this forum to show me examples of someone actually succeeding with any online marketing without good content.

    Of course, this is the opinion of a writer/blogger...lol.
