Get more Traffic to your site

By Richard Chapman

Owning a website on the net is not enough; you need to get traffic to your site and should have awareness about its importance. A profitable venture depends on consistent and sustainable traffic. There are different ways of diverting traffic to the site and while it is not possible to do this for free like most people would want, some tips given below will surely enable you to achieve your goal.

It is a good idea to write articles and feed them to blogs. When an article is accepted by a blog or an article site, it will give you a good permanent link which will remain as long as the blog exists. Article sites distribute your article to other sites.

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.

You need to offer your website to various directories so that they can back links to help boost your ranking with the major search engines. There are thousands of directories out there, many with a high ranking.

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.

I hope that you find the suggestions above to be useful; at least they are pointing you in the right direction. Always think links, link, links. Take my advice and never pay for traffic, it is nearly all garbage. Buy links or directory submission, but dont buy traffic. If you want to know more, just follow my traffic blog.
