  • Dwivid,

    Great question. There are a lot of different ways to drive traffic to your website besides SEO. If you want highly targeted traffic you could consider using a PPC service such as Adwords or Microsoft AdCenter or 7search. You can create accounts on social media networks, build up a following and then promote your website there. While the use of a blog is primarily an SEO tactic, you can also use it to drive interest in your site. You can share posts on social media networks to get people to come to the site.
    Depending on what your site is about, you could participate in relevant forums and leave links to your site where relevant. Email marketing or other more traditional forms of marketing with your website URL attached could also help drive traffic to the site.

    Here's a method you should consider: Try ranking for something that leads to your primary keyword or primary business. Ex. If you're trying to rank for "how to make money online" wouldn't it be a lot smarter to rank for other keywords such as lead generation software, how to get leads for my primary business, how to spin articles, etc.

    The bottom line is be creative, find out who your primary target is and think of ways you can get around those high rank keywords. It's pointless to even try to rank for them. It's not going to happen unless you already have a good alexa rank or you can get a bunch of backlinks from established sites.

    You can start with content marketing. Content still remains king if you want to attract the right kind of links. Article which falls under content marketing that is an umbrella term that captures all the different ways to communicate within a marketing, lead generation and retention framework.

    Also you can focus on Infographics. In today' s market , it becomes a challenge on how you can effectively communicate to the people with your contents. And making one's content eye-catching and easy to understand is not an easy task. Infographics here play a vital role in doing so.

    If you are new to SEO and the keyword has high competition I would recommend leaving it and targeting something easier

    Its better to target 10 keywords that bring in 1,000 visitors per month with low competition than 1 keyword with 10,000 visits but high competition

    If you are set on targeting this high competition keyword then you can look at social traffic, online advertising, video marketing, mobile marketing, offline marketing

    Search the forum, there are hundreds of ways and some great tutorials on each method

    Posting ads in local classifieds can help quite a bit. You basically can target local audience and the category they look at.

    Setup an email squeeze page website for a free guide or free videos. Then buy solo ads to this page from safe-swaps members or other solo ad sellers here. Continue to market products to your email list as it grows. Thats one of the best ways to get traffic these days.

    The thing I've seen the best result from involves, using Pinterest, Tumblr, Instagram and Twitter.

    You can interlink all of these services using a third party service, then post content etc, build a niche following and direct them to three different versions of your niche website. A shameless plug perhaps, but one of the apps I use is in my sig, and the rest a publicly available social services online.

    Once you have a steady following about (1000) per network, the fun really starts. Shoot a link out, boost your SEO via social signals and get more traffic to your website. PM me if you want a more in depth discussion.

    Cheers,
    Eric

    High competition may not be a bad thing. When looking at high competition in the google keyword tool it only pertains to paid ads ppc, it has NOTHING to do with the organic searches. If you want to rank high in the search engines organically, get quality backlinks. Generally from sites with a high page rank and a site that's been around for a long time. Google favors old sites.

    There are a lot of ways to get free traffic and paid traffic other then seo. in my opinion SEO is kind of overrated...but ill keep that to myself. You dont need to be super creative to get visitors to your site. so to where your visitors are and tell them about the site and what value it has. internet marketing is not much different then offline marketing. Target who you want to visit and give them a compelling reason to come and then a compelling reason to share your message. this way you don't have to work so hard and the word viral takes on a new meaning

    There are many simple ways to generate traffic and I used this technique for years. First, you can share it on Social Media. Social media is very important to get traffic from, since it is targeted and taking a huge part on the online world as of today and going into the future. Another way to get fast traffic is through commenting. Always strive for that top comment. You can join Communities too that share. The fourth one is Bookmarking on popular Social Sites. I usually go to, StumbleUpon and Reddit. They’re the best choices. The most important for me is to WRITE a killer content. Always strive to write killer content once a week. Killer content is bound to be shared by many and get those “clicks” to your bog or site. A killer headline and killer words form your brain is all you need for an article to take off in the lane of awesomeness!

    you can always do some guest blogging and afterwards do some gsa random linking which builds links on 50 platforms this way you get traffic from the blogs as well as ranking from the links
    then do some linkbaiting if possible
