If you're looking to drive more targeted traffic to
your web site, you'll want to pay close attention to the website
promotion strategies presented in this article.
As an internet marketer, or a want to be internet marketer, you know
that web site traffic is your livelihood. Without it you have nothing.
No traffic - no sales - no profits. You'll continue to be stuck in a
dead end job or worse yet, unemployed with no way to take care of
yourself or your family.
Web site traffic can
be boosted by:
- increasing the number of new visitors
- increasing return visits
While there are many possible solutions, the
best way to increase website traffic for a brief period of time is to
write newsletter articles. All that is required is an idea, decent
writing skills, a couple hours of time and someone who would be
interested in publishing your work. Because there is no money
involved, this promotion technique is especially suited for small
business owners who don't have a large marketing budget. You can also
get high rankings and more web traffic to your site by doing the
following steps.
-
research what keywords
people use most often on search
engines that pertain to your products or services; use these
keywords as text in the design to increase website traffic.
-
"Keep It Simple" - 99%
of all web designers use too many graphical images and programs like
Java, Flash, etc. which results in lower rankings and less traffic..
-
Web pages, like a spread
sheet, are made using cells and tables. Use as few cells and tables
in your web design as possible.
-
Create good Meta Tags.
Each page should have different keywords in the Title and the
Description Meta Tag.
-
Limit the number of
times that you repeat words in your Keyword Meta Tag.
-
Place your important
keywords at the top of the page as text headers.
-
Your most important page
and keywords should be on the first page of a website.
-
Frames based websites
should only be used for Intranet (a site only for company employees)
and not for Internet.
-
Do NOT include pages
that re-direct (a page that automatically sends you to another page)
people to other pages.
Exchanging links with related but non competitive sites will bring you
targeted traffic and boost your page rank. An absolute must if you
want to be listed on the first page of google. It's a necessary
website promotion strategy and should not be overlooked.
