Increasing Website Traffic Starter

One of the most important and often over looked aspects of either website or online market in getting traffic to your website. Without traffic flow to your page or website no body can buy what you are selling or even sign up for your list & likewise even established websites must increase website traffic in order to expand and grow and allow you the hardworking operator to profit and make a good living.

In this post we are just going to look at the basics of getting your website noticed and as we progress into further blog posts I'll start bringing out the heavier weapons of increasing website traffic. Before we even dig into SEO (search engine optimization) I want you to understand building traffic without it first otherwise it may take a very long time to get traffic. Chances are if you are looking for ways to increase website traffic you already have used and know what SEO is. If not I'll have another report up on SEO soon.

At this point your website is built now Let's Get You Some Traffic.

I would always recommend google adwords. Google adwords (PPC) or (pay per click) advertising is probably the most simply,easiest way to get traffic to your website.




The good news about traffic to your website through programs like adwords is that not only do you get to dictate what you spend on advertising its targeted. Why is it targeted? Because to find your ad someone has to type in exactly what they are looking for and you placed an ad that targets those specific keywords. In other words someone just asked you for a drink of water and you are merely handing it to them.


You'll pay for advertising this way but you'll be able to control it and keep your costs as low as you want. Again this is the best way to get targeted customers to your website. You can bid as low as 1 Cent or as high as you'd like but it will increase website traffic to your site and will potentially bring you what you are looking for, a sale. After you have begun your adwords campaign and you start increasing traffic carefully mointor it for the first couple weeks to see where you need to make changes in your advertising. What kind of changing will you make you may ask yourself? Well you'll want to make sure that the traffic you are paying for is converting. Meaning if you are paying and no one is buying you need to re word your ad. Or you may getting no clicks at all. Just keep in mind in sales its all how you word things that leads people to the sale.

How about some Free Website Traffic?

You can get it that way to just not in the targeted masses you do from PPC advertising. One way to grab yourself some free website traffic is by using article directories like ezine articles.
Writing articles can be time consuming but it will do a couple of things for you.

#1.It Builds Back links & the more links pointing to your website the more likely Google and all the other search engines like you. It will also increase website traffic in all likeliness just from people reading the articles and clicking your link to your website.

#2. It builds trust. Without trust no one will buy from you. They must trust who you are and what you do. Showing you have some type of expertise in whatever field you are writing about shows that you might know what you're doing.

Another way to increase website traffic for free is to post in free classified ads online. Try that one or this one here web classifieds.

Both of the links above are to free online classified ads. How they work are you post your classified ad at their website and they give you a full page that is also SEO optimized to display it on. The great part about this is to post a free online classified ad it takes about 5 minutes and you not only have an extra back link to your website but you've got another page bringing people to your site. So now you may ask how will this increase your website traffic beyond that? Simple google and other search engines place extra authority weight on certain web classified listings. So what does this mean? It means that all those ads you post in web classified directories get noticed fast by Google and others and place high in the search engines much faster than your website will. I have tested this many many times over and it works and works well. You'll start noticing your website traffic increasing within a few days.

There are many other ways to increase website traffic that we'll get onto in another lesson but this will get you started quickly into getting people to your website. Just remember traffic may be the single most important factor in making money online.
