Traffic Building

Advanced Web Site Traffic Building Strategies

Traffic is the lifeblood of your business. Without this you will definitely struggle to build a successful business online. However, most people struggle to generate significant traffic online. In this article I would like to highlight some advanced ways that you can use to generate traffic online.

1) Do keyword research

Before you do any search engine optimization on your website you need to research your market. Use a tool like Wordtracker and find high traffic keywords that you will build your site around. Record about a hundred keywords that are related to your website. You need to build your entire website around these keywords.

2) Write articles

You need to write articles related to the niche market of your website. Once you have completed them submit them to all the major article directories. Make sure that you include your target keywords in the anchor text of your bio. These will also become viral as other website owners publish your articles. This will increase your website link popularity and subsequently your search engine rankings.

3) Write a press release

Once you have created your website you can use a free and very popular online press release service like Prleap that will submit your press release. Just make sure that your launch is newsworthy. You will get an important link from a high page rank site that will boost your search engine rankings. If your press release is newsworthy it may also be picked up by additional websites getting additional one way links and free publicity.

4) Submit to social networking sites

You can also start a blog on your website. This will give you additional search engine traffic if you update it frequently. Submit your blog posts to popular story sites like Digg. If it is a good quality post it may get on to the front page and you will experience a surge in traffic to your website.
