Website Traffic

I have been working on my website since yesterday. I realized that it could be better because I was confused as to what I wanted to convey to visitors. As a result, I was tweaking most of the afternoon. I was wondering what it was all for and I thought why do I want people to come here again? The answer is for my business. I want to briefly look at why traffic is necessary for a site, how we get it, and provide some tips.

Web site traffic is necessary because it is the life blood of your internet business. Without people knowing about your site, you will not have customers. People will not know that I can help them with business related needs and will find someone else. So with that fact resonating in my mind, I began to see how I could generate more traffic.

There were several things that came up while I researched. The first was ever present SEO. I had applied the meta tags and such. However, it is still not generating that much of a buzz. There is also blogging, which I seem to like. There is also article generation to get your name out there, and something I have not tried yet, social marketing.

While it can be daunting to consider all of the information of what I could do to make my site have more traffic, here are a few tips to remember:

    • Make sure you added your key words to your tags
    • Add a good description that is displayed on the search engines
    • Create an email/newsletter list
    • Sign up for the social networking sites—Twitter, Linked in, Facebook
    • Use Google Adwords
    • Consider hiring someone to help you.
