How To Increase Web Site Traffic

Saturday, September 2nd, 2006
 

Many online business owners ask me how to increase their web site traffic. As a business owner, you should remember that increasing your web site traffic is not important, what IS important, is increasing targeted web site traffic. Targeted traffic are people interested in your products and services. For example, if you sell high end jewelry, your targeted traffic will be women looking for diamond earrings or men looking for engagement rings.

Getting a lof of consistent, targeted traffic should be every online business owner’s goal. Targeted traffic is interested in your products and services before it even comes to your web site.

Here information about a few sources different of targeted traffic and tips on getting more of it to your web site:

– Source of targeted traffic: Search Engines. If your web site is properly optimized for search engines, you can get a lot of targeted, useful traffic.

How to increase it: By doing search engine optimization. Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of modifying web site and outside elements in order to bring more search engine traffic. You can learn more about search engine optimization for your web site in the Search Engine Optimization Special Report.

– Source of targeted traffic: Pay Per Clik Search Engines. You can bring targeted traffic to your web site by bidding on proper keywords with pay per click search engines. As you pay for every click, be careful about the keywords you bid on, and the daily budget for your campaigns.

How to increase it: By finding the optimal combination of keywords that you need and setting an optimal daily budget. Monitor and experiment with your pay per click campaigns – trying different things will help you find the most profitable keywords.

– Source of targeted traffic: Posting Articles Online. Write articles on topics related to your business, and your articles will be read by your potential customers.

How to increase it: Leverage your articles – post it on different article banks and encourage others to reprint them. Doing this will help you get in front of many people you would have never reached otherwise.

You will also be using leverage – by writing an article once, you will be able to use it many times to get exposure for your business.

So how can YOUR web site get more targeted visitors? Over to you – let’s take action:

– Take a look at your web site statistics. Learn where your targeted web site visitors are already coming from – are they coming from search engines? Link exchanges? Article banks? Your blog? The Understanding Web Site Statistics Special Report will help you navigate your web site statistics and understand how to use it to get the information you need for marketing your web site better.

– Based on the statistics, pick one source of targeted traffic to work on. It could be a source from which you are already receiving traffic, and would like to get more traffic from. Or, it could be a completely new source, from which you are not receiving any traffic, but would like to start.

– Learn as much as you can about the traffic source you pick. And than start working on getting targeted traffic. When you concentrate on one source, your efforts are fairly focused, and you will be able to get more targeted traffic to your web site.

By building up targeted traffic, you will be able to get more customers and improve your bottom line.
