Web site Traffic strategies

Generate traffic to your Web site by linking with outside sources. Search engine optimization will assist the search engines with locating your site's information through relevant keywords and content. Write articles periodically and consistently or hire an excellent copywriter to write articles about your Web site or ideas.

Submit your site to many quality directories with high page rank, comment on related blog sites, submit articles to writing syndication sites, post comments on blog pages, join social networking sites, and exchange links, exposing your URL for visitors and for search engines to link back to your site.

As your page ranking increases over time you may not have to exchange links nearly as much, and indeed your site may be approached to link to other sites.

Instant traffic

Create instant traffic to your Web site through Yahoo Answers with a free Yahoo account. At www.answers.yahoo.com find the open questions regarding your topic of choice and submit answers to questions that arise from visitors around the world, adding your URL in every response, within the guidelines allowed by Yahoo. You should be able to place several dozen per day several times weekly, creating immediate traffic to your site.

Yahoo Answers is one of the Web's principal authority sites. Yahoo Answers pages are scanned by search engines within hours of your postings and if your URL is there your Web site will be indexed.

Forward an additional copy of your newly published article to www.digg.com. Readers of your article can award it Digg points, and when enough points are scored your article will be displayed prominently in Digg's Web site pages for the world to see with your URL at the end of the article, attracting search engines and readers.

Comment on blogs with topics related to your Web site, and place your URL on your response, creating both immediate and secondary traffic to your site just as Yahoo Answers will.

More Traffic From Similar Sites and Articles

When you have published new article content, submit a copy with your URL at the end to www.technorati.com, in a related classification to your site, or an entirely new classification. The more recent articles are seen at the top of the corresponding topics.

Although there is no certainty of your link remaining for a long time on information you submit with your URL to Wikipedia in a topic of choice, there is a possibility, and it will be seen on one of the Web's primary sources of information.

Maximize the search engine results for your Web site with a range of search engine marketing from simple to the more elaborate, including search engine optimization, organic Web page and Web site optimization, link building, RSS feeds, and other marketing techniques.
