3 Ways to Build Your Web Traffic Quickly
Its a common story. Someone builds a nice
site, populates it with lots of fantastic content and beautiful graphics. They spend weeks or month making sure everything is perfect before the big launch day arrives. Then in the hours, days and weeks after the upload, a few all the people trickle in but nothing really explosive. What happened? How may such a dazzling site not naturally take the internet community by storm? Simple the selling
of the site was not planned (and almost always
not even thought about!).
If this is happening to you then dont panic! There are a few ways to kick-start your visitors
and get some meaningful visitors. Done in combination with a long term branding strategy, they might
help grow your list of visitors and more importantly keep them. Here are a few of the immediate steps that might
be taken:
Buy Traffic This is probably the easiest and a very cheap way to go. The way it works is that businesses
purchase expired domain names and redirect the traffic straight to your site. Other companies operate pop-up or pop-under technology that displays the web page
you want visited. Often you may beginning seeing results from this in 48 hours and many thousands of visitors can be had for only a few dollars outlay. Beware! This might
really send your stats through the roof and is very brain friendly, but there are pitfalls. Untargeted traffic is quite low quality unless you have something truly nice
to show a general audience. In most case you are far better off purchasing targeted hits to your sites area of interest. It is only logical that a travel site would want many people
looking for travel information! It is assessment of worth
spending a few more
dollars.
Post on POPULAR, ESTABLISHED Forums Do some research and find out what are the most popular forums in your area. I am talking about forums with at least 1000 members and preferably many more. Beware of forums that reward people for placing as they may indeed have many members, but few of them post more than once or twice and even fewer read other peoples posts. (You want forums with many more posts than members this indicates that members actively return, read and post at the forum). Most forum moderators have no problems with users having a signature at the end of their posts. This is where you might
list your website
URL. DO NOT SPAM peoples boards with commercial messages. Post helpful or interesting topics and respond to other peoples queries. Posting solely to advertise your site will get you banned from most forums. This technique might
be worth many thousands of visitors to your web page
quite quickly if done properly.
Yahoo! Listing Its the most popular site on the internet and its where many companies go to get listed. Its also responsible for about 50% of all internet searches. You may get your page
reviewed quickly for about $200 (though they do not guarantee to list everything so contruct
sure your page looks professional and has sizeably workable content. Even then it is still a gamble). It is expensive but your site WILL get seen by a lot of many people
if you get a listing with Yahoo! One sizeably effective tip is to try to title your site with a letter towards the start of the alphabet as the listings go in alphabetical order. That way you will be in front of your competitors.
These techniques may have a very fast effect on your website traffic. The first two should send your stats up within a few days and combined with the Yahoo listing, see them stay high. Its a lot of work, and maybe a little cash, but these three techniques combined may have your web site acquiring thousands or even tens of thousands of visitors per month.
