7 Techniques to Increase Web

Site Traffic

Whether you’re an affiliate marketer, sell your own products and services, or

MLM, there are certain internet marketing techniques that you can use to get

more traffic to your site.

It’s not that internet marketing techniques that vary from industry to industry

that make a difference, but how you apply them to marketing your business.

The most important element of internet marketing is to go where your

customers are. Just as you wouldn’t promote gambling on a gardening site,

don’t promote products and services, your own or someone else’s, or MLM

where it’s not welcome.

What I’m saying is, don’t just throw your product up anywhere. That’s not

targeted traffic. To get targeted traffic, you have to promote where others are

looking for what you are offering. Targeted traffic is the key to higher website

conversion and more sales.

Regardless of what you are promoting, these techniques will help you get more

traffic to your site, and building site is crucial to your success no matter what

industry you are in.

Here are seven techniques I use to get more traffic to my sites:

1. Search engines.

Search engines are the easiest way I know of to be found online because just

about everyone uses the search engines.

Although I don’t recommend that you rely solely on search engines as a way

for potential customers to find you, you should at least get your site indexed.

People can’t find you if you aren’t there.

2. Link exchanges.

Although linking isn’t as valuable as it once was, it’s still an effective way to

promote your site. By contacting website owners who have websites that

complement your own, and then exchanging links with them, you’ll build

referral traffic because linking is still considered to be an endorsement of your

site.

3. Affiliate programs.

An affiliate program is where you allow others to promote your website for a

percentage of the profits of each sale.

Although there are other ways to pay affiliates like per lead, pay per sale is the

most common.

With an affiliate program, you give others an incentive for promoting your

website, and this can also make it easier to get links back to your site.

4. Writing articles.

Of all the internet marketing techniques I’ve tried, I’ve found this one to be the

most effective. I’m sure it has something to with the fact that I like to write,

and maybe it’s easier for me.

What articles will do for you is help you build backlinks to your site, establish

you as an expert, and offer more value to your business. You are offering your

potential customers something up front.

If the thought of writing articles makes you cringe, try writing tip sheets, lists,

or a how to. People love these types of articles because they’re so easy to

read.

5. Joint ventures.

Done correctly, a joint venture can be your ticket to fast cash in your business.

By seeking out others who have complementary websites, and offering them

incentives to sell your products, you can quickly increase your bottom line.

6. List building.

Although list building isn’t an internet marketing technique per se, it is an

important part of building your business.

List building allows you to recycle your traffic, build relationships, and increase

your conversion to make more sales.

7. Know your market.

By knowing your market, you’ll know what kind of products and services

potential customers are looking for.

Although it won’t help you raise visibility for your site, it will help you increase

your conversions, and you can more easily get to know your market by visiting

forums on your topic, posting polls on your site, and studying other sites on

your topic.

The most important thing to remember is to show your potential customers

respect. Don’t spam them with offers. Build a relationship, and you’ll build

traffic and make more sales.
