How to get more traffic to your site

By Richard Chapman

So you own a website, probably a very nice one, but this does not get you traffic and without traffic your website is worthless. The only way you are going to make money is if you have good, regular traffic. There are many ways of drawing visitors to your site, although to get the traffic free is a very daunting task. However, perhaps the following will help.

Write a good content filled article and submit it to blogs and article sites. The bogs will give you permanent links and the sites will pass your article on to other sites and blogs. This is a great way to get links; if your article is picked up then the number of links can become exponential.

Join a few forums and post frequently. Most forums allow you to link your signature to your site. If you pick the bigger Forums like Digital Point, they have so much traffic that these inks are very valuable. Make friends and they will help you by giving suggestions on how to get traffic.

Submitting your site to online directories will give you backlinks. There are hundreds of directories out there, submit to as many as you can. These links are very valuable in raising your search engine Page Rank. The higher the Page Rank of the directory, the more benefit it will give you.

I have an auto submitter which saves an enormous amount of time, but there is no reason why you should not use a submission service.

Putting an article on a blog is a great way to improve your ranking. You should find blogs that are relevant to your service and ask the owner if you can submit an article, with your link of course. If the owner is not inclined to accept your suggestion, no problem just post a comment on one of his articles.

The above are some methods to improve the visibility of your site. You may wish to purchase traffic but this is a very dangerous business. Nearly all traffic for sale is garbage traffic and you will get no real visitors. I would advise you to buy links not traffic. Links are forever and they ultimately determine your search engine ranking. To learn more, follow my traffic blog, its all free.
