      No, they will not. Nofollow links do not build anything.
      Signature
      Links in signature will not help your SEO. Not on this site, and not on any other forum.
      Who told me this? An ex Google web spam engineer.

      What's your excuse?

    List Building is also a good way to find seed traffic and get people to share and link back to your site. If you analyze every big website out there, you'll learn that most of the traffic came from "Direct" (more than 60%) and the rest comes from "Referral" and "SEO". (Just check any big website using alexa)

    Direct traffic

    - People directly going back to your website by typing your web address on the browser
    - People who clicked on the link from email address , software


    Referral
    - Mostly came from social media
    - Other Links

    SEO

    - Search Engine Traffic

    I've realized that most big brands out there don't rely on SEO or Social Media, they create quality contents so people will love to read and get back on their website multiple times.

    They also build an email list so they can send them to new articles.

    How can you find out how many times a question is searched for or asked. With keywords, we can check G's keyword suggestion tool. What can we use for key questions?

    want to siphon off traffic

    start looking in the serps for linking opportunities then try to get one from a ranking page

    ranking webpages get traffic and if your link is compelling enough good chance of getting traffic from that link

    what ever you do don't spam the ranking webpage otherwise most likely that link will not be accepted and forget about that traffic

      a good way to drive traffic is CPM and CPC campaigns (adwords for example) , they are not free like the methods mentioned above but they can help driving traffic towards you site or blog.

      The thing with CPM and CPC is that you need to create or pay for attractive "banners" that will catch the visitors attention, and also you need to monitor your campaigns to see what works and what's not so you can make the best out of the money you invest.

      I had the chance to work on great campaigns and the successful recipe is always "attractive banners" + "great content", as if you miss one of those you will be losing money for nothing.

        Yes, it is also a good way to drive some good traffic to our site. We need budget to create campaign. And also here you need proper knowledge on it to run it successfully!

    Too many people by pass low volume keywords (Short or long) as their search volume numbers are not enticing. What would you rather have, 20-40 buyer keywords that bought people to your sight wanting to buy or 1,000 views with 99% bounce rate?

      You get banned because you are spamming, If you were actually answering peoples questions regarding hair replacement, joining in discussions and creating informative threads, i am sure many people would have developed an interest in your brand to click to your website.

    Long tail keywords that is usually used by your targeted users.

      If your audience find relevant content what they are wanting, then they will long last. But if you blindly tweet out bad stuff then it will not bring good results for your business.

      Just Target your audience and engage with them!

      Yes, you are right dear! Google Plus works greatly both for ranking and driving more traffic. But here we need to build our google+ profile more authority. Long tail keywords rank well by using google + backlink strategy!

      Hi,
      Yes, social sites can be a good source to generate traffic. But here we need to understand our audience before sharing our content. And, being active on social site we can get more exposure.
      We should remember not to spam!
