5 Ways To Increase
Your Website Traffic
By Suzanne Morrison
I don't know about you, but when I first
entered the world of internet marketing I
thought I could just submit my newly
finished website to a few search engines,
then sit back as the visitors flocked to
my site.
I imagined that people would arrive on
my website, as if by magic, purchase
goods, and perhaps come back again for
more.
A week or so later I came down to earth
with a big bump.
I realised that it would take a bit of
time and effort to see the results that
I was dreaming about!
Since my reality check, I have learned
all about the weird and wonderful ways
of Internet marketing.
In this article I will tell you about
my top 5 free ways of increasing
website traffic.
All these methods are completely free
and if you spend some time on them you
will find that they work consistently.
(1)Writing Articles
Writing an article on a subject related
to your website and getting that article
published has two major benefits:
- People who are interested in your article
will read it and often click on the URL in
your resource box find out more. This gets
you another free targeted visitor. Targeted,
because that reader wants to find out more
on the subject of your article, which is
hopefully related to the subject of your
website
. - Every publisher of your article must also
publish your "resource box". Adding a
resource box with your URL to all of your
articles will increase the number of links
leading back to your website, which in turn
helps to increase your search engine position.
For a list of directories to submit your
article to, see:
http://resultstracker.net/t.php?id=38289
(2)Forum Networking
There are many discussion forums on the
internet, on every topic you could possibly
imagine.
Most discussion boards allow posters to
attach a "Signature" with their post
containing additional information about
themselves, such as their name, URL and sometimes even an advertisement.
By visiting a few forums regularly and
participating in the discussions, asking
and answering questions, you can build up
trust with other forum members, whilst at
the same time getting free exposure for
your website.
Just try to make a useful contribution to
the forum - be sure to read the forum
rules and don't spam!
(3)Reciprocal Linking
Reciprocal linking has two main benefits
for you.
Firstly, the more links that you exchange,
the more chance there is that someone will
follow a link from another site and land
on your website.
Secondly, your website will be perceived
more importantly by search engines.
The more links you have from other sites,
the greater your chance of getting ranked
more highly by all the search engines.
Here are some Dos and Don'ts to help you
get more out of your link exchanges.
- Do link with sites that will be of
interest to your visitors.
- Don't link with pages that have
unorganised link directories with hundreds
of links on each page. This won't benefit
you with increased traffic or search engine
rankings.
- Do link with sites that have a clearly
labelled "Link Directory" from their main
page. You aren't likely to get much traffic
from a hidden or hard to find link directory.
- Don't use link farms or FFA pages. You
are unlikely to get extra traffic using these
methods and the search engines may penalise
you.
- Do use link directories to help you find
link partners. Visit:
http://resultstracker.net/t.php?id=38290
to find popular link exchange directories.
- Do stay organised. Use link exchange
software, or a spreadsheet to keep track
of the link exchanges you have requested
and the contact details of the webmasters.
(4) Email Signatures
This is a very simple, but often forgotten
way of increasing your website visitors.
Most of us are sending lots of emails a day,
but many of us just sign them with just our
name, or perhaps nothing at all.
Instead, why not end your emails with a
short signature containing your name, a bit
about your website along with the URL?
Keep the signature short (4 lines), to the
point and avoid hype or SHOUTING.
You may be surprised at the extra visitors
you receive through doing this. It's
amazing how curiosity will lead the recipients
of your email to click on your link!
(5)Using Traffic Exchanges
Finally, this is one easy way to guarantee
instant hits to your website. You can build
up credits for free by surfing or building
up a downline to surf for you.
The downside of this method is that the
visitors you receive from traffic exchanges
are not as targeted as the visitors that
you will receive via the other methods that
I have described.
The reason for this is that people surf
traffic exchanges for one reason - to earn
as many credits as possible in as short a
space of time as possible!
This gives you a challenge - how do you
attract the attention of someone who is
looking at your web page for 20 seconds or
less?
Here are two tips -
- Know your market - spend some time
surfing on the exchange that you are
advertising on and pay attention to
the types of web pages being advertised.
Make sure that the pages you advertise
are going to interest your target market.
- Use a short, simple attention
grabbing page that can be read in
a few seconds - there is no point
advertising a huge page of text that
takes 5 minutes to read. The chances are,
your visitor will get bored and click on
the "next" button without giving your page
a fair chance.
Regularly invest some time in each of
these 5 traffic generating methods and
you will see your web statistics moving
in the upwards direction before you know
it.

Easy To Use
Table Generator
http://resultstracker.net/t.php?id=38292
I have visited numerous websites with
plentiful data that would be digested much
easier if it were presented in a table
format.
Here is free resource that will enable you
to create tables with a professional look and feel.

Text-to-Hyperlink
Conversion Tool
http://thephantomwriters.com/link-builder.pl
When I prepare each issue of THE TAX TORPEDO
Newsletter, there are multiple urls that I want
to hyperlink.
This is a free tool that saves me valuable
time. Here are the instructions on how to
use this tool:
In short, you can place natural text with URL's
and Mailto addresses in the box, click convert,
and get all of your URL's and Mailto addresses
within the text in a hyperlink form for straight
copy-and-paste to your HTML documents.

************************************
The Google Directory
And Link Popularity
I'll be the first to confess that I did not even
know until yesterday that there was such a
thing as The Google Directory ?!?
You can use this directory to find websites
with a high page rank and request reciprocal
links with appropriate sites.
Check out the Google directory at:
http://directory.google.com/
If you locate the category or theme of the
websites you want to target, they will be
listed with the highest Page Rank (PR)
websites at the top of the list.
Most of the sites near the top of the list
will be PR4, PR5 or higher. These are the
websites that you want to do your free link
exchanges with.
For other link popularity secrets refer to:

************************************
The Long-term Benefit
Of Offering Valuable Free
Products And Services
To Your Contact Lists
http://resultstracker.net/t.php?id=37342
Here is the #1 concept that drives
the Internet as far as individual success goes:
A high level of credibility has a
monetary value!
You can build your credibility by offering to your
contact lists on a regular basis information that
solves a problem or fulfills a need.
When that information is in the form of free
products or services, your email messages are
virtually certain to be opened and read by a
high percentage of your contacts.
Periodically, slip in a commercial
message.
If you have multiple lists, you will have some
kind of commercial messages going out on a
regular basis.
The archives of THE TAX TORPEDO Newsletter
are a great source for quality free programs,
products and services.
I am still working on completing an up-to-date
archives with all 2004 issues.

I Heard It
Through The Grapevine
This is a story I heard recently while
playing poker, and it was told by a
grey haired gentleman sitting across
the table from me.
"I remember the time I went to apply
for Social Security when I became 65",
he said.
"I thought I had all the documentation
necessary, but the clerk said I needed
a copy of my birth certificate. I said
it would take me weeks to track it down,
so could she give me a break??
She looked me over and said, 'Unbutton
your shirt'.
I did as told and she said, 'Well, the
hair on your chest is completely grey,
so I guess you're old enough.'
"She proceeded to give me the paperwork
to complete my application.
I went home and told my wife I qualified
for Social Security. All I had to do was
unbutton my shirt!"
'Well', my wife said, 'You should have
dropped your pants as well. You could have
qualified for disability too!!'
