Traffic is the currency of the web. The more traffic your website
has, the easier it will be to achieve your objective, be it to make
money, to spread your ideas, to connect with other people or anything
else.
That is why we decided to create a compilation with 100 ways you can
use to increase your website traffic. Apply some (or most) of them and
we are sure your numbers will go up!
Blogs
1. Add a blog to your website. If your website is
static (e.g., a corporate site or an online store), consider adding a
blog to it, where you’ll write new content regularly. This will give
your visitors a reason to come back, and your search engine traffic will
increase too. If you need a blog software, check out WordPress (it is free and easy to use).
2. Leave comments on other blogs. Develop the habit
of visiting blogs inside your niche and leaving comments on them. You
can include a link to your website on each comment, and some visitors
will certainly come through those links. You can use Bdjobs to find blogs in any niche.
3. Write guest posts. Most blogs accept guest posts.
That is, they allow you to write a post for them, and usually the post
carries an author byline with a link to your website. Simply send your
article to the blog owner and ask whether or not he wants to publish it
as a guest post.
4. Sponsor blog contests. Another common practice
around the blogosphere are contests. You can sponsor one by donating
products or money, and the blogger will link to your website from the
contest page.
5. Join a blog carnival. Blog carnivals are online
events where bloggers get together to write about one specific topic.
The host of the carnival will them write a round-up post linking to all
the participant entries, and participants usually link to each others’
entries as well. You can organize one with your friends, or browse for
existing ones at BlogCarnival.com.
6. Network, network, network. Ever heard the saying
“it is not about what you know, but who you know”? It applies to
promoting a website as well. If you become a friend with a blogger or
website owner, he will be much more likely to link to your website and
send traffic your way. A good way to achieve this is to link to other
bloggers first and to establish a relationship via email.
