Tips to drive traffic to your website
Creating a website or a blog post can be a fun way to express yourself, and sometimes, creating a website can even earn you some extra money. But what's the point if you have no visitors (i.e. traffic) that link to your site? Below are some valuable tips on how to drive traffic to your website.
First, write what you know. Make sure the content of your website contains information on a subject matter that you know. If you have a hobby or contain knowledge and it's important enough for you to take the time to share it, chances are there are millions of others who share the same interests or need knowledge you can offer. If you put up content that you have no knowledge of, people will know, and eventually you will lose their following.
Second, use keywords in your content or blog posts that will attract visitors. Keywords are short terms or phrases that a user will type in to a search engine to find information on a topic. There are some free programs available, such as Google AdWords that will help you find frequently utilized terms or phrases entered in a search box to find information on the subject matter that you are providing on your website. Consider this: What phrase would you type in to a search engine to find more information on your topic?
Third, make it personal. When creating a website or blog post, followers should be made to feel like they know you, would like to know you, or know that you have extensive and reliable knowledge on information that they seek. Place pictures of yourself doing what you are putting on your website, or pictures and/or videos of step by step instructions on how to complete a project. Also, make sure you have a bio of your background that relates to your website, along with a picture of yourself.
Additionally, try to make your website to the follower interactive by asking for input, or requesting other ideas to post. Make sure to respond to each follower. By creating an interactive environment, you will have a continual stream of new ideas to post on your website, and you will create a group of 'return' visitors.
Lastly, use social media to spread the word about your website or blog post. Do you remember the commercial that promoted the saying; "you tell two friends, and they'll tell two friends, and so on and so on and so on..."? That's the point here. Let your family and friends know that you have a new website on <insert your website content here> through Facebook, Twitter or other social media programs that you use. Spread the word and you will create traffic to your site in no time.
Driving traffic to your website is easy if you keep the above points in mind. Remember: stick to the basics and don't overcomplicate this process for yourself. The reality is, if you write with what you know, use keywords that help navigate an audience to your website, make your website personal, and promote using the most powerful social media tools available to you, the readers will flock to your content and you'll gain new and keep loyal readership.
