How do you get good quality traffic to a brand new website?
A question for the ages. There are countless tips and strategies
that a person could set into motion for getting traffic to a new
website. There are plenty of people who will tell you the exact
step-by-step method to getting web traffic if you have enough
money.
Truth be told, it's not that hard to get traffic to a site
rather quickly.
If you have the money using Google Adwords, or some other PPC
search engine will bring in as much traffic as you can afford.
But, what if you can't afford it? What if you're just starting
and have a brand new website? How do you get targeted traffic
then?
Three Ways For Immediate Website Traffic
When you're just starting a brand new site, you have time and
money invested. You don't want to wait for the search engines to
index you and rank you somewhere. You probably don't have the
cash to dump into a PPC campaign. If you do, that's great, but I
would rely solely on that. I have seen too many people lose a
lot of cash this way. They have to be closely monitored and cut
off quickly if they are not working out.
So, how do you get good, quality, targeted traffic to a new
site... on the cheap?
1. Write a lot
I know that's not what a lot of people want to hear. Or even
what a lot of people will tell you. But, if you want immediate
traffic, with results, then write a lot of articles. In fact,
don't ever stop. You finish one, start another one. Finish that
one, start another one. And so on and so on.
When you write a good article, dealing with the topic of your
site, and distribute it to websites and article directories, you
are going to get results. People will visit they websites, read
your article, and click to your site. Or they will see your
article in a directory, put in on their website or in their
ezine, people read it, click to your site.
This one method alone can be your advertising campaign is done
correctly. However, for a well rounded, balanced advertising
campaign, you will need to use a couple of other tools.
2. Solo Ads
If you want to get a large flood of visitors in a short period
of time, solo ads are a great tool to use. Although, like
articles they need to be well written. Solo ad success also
depends on where the ad is published.
Solo ads are ads that are published all by themselves to an
entire mailing list. The power in these beauties lies in the
audience they are targeted to. If you place an ad in an ezine of
6,000 people that are within your targeted niche, you have 6,000
potential visitors. If your ad is written good enough, you'll
get a large portion of those readers.
3. Write some more
Are you gettting tired of hearing that yet?
However you look at it, good or bad, writing is a the single
most important element to your online business. There are
different rules to adhere to in the online world. People want
information. They want to be entertained. They love to learn
things. So use that for traffic.
Now, when I say write more I don't mean articles. What I'm
referring to are little how to "course" that show people, over a
short period of time, how to do something. You can cut this
course into bite sized lengths and make them 6 to 10 parts. You
distribute these in two different ways.
The first way is not for immediate traffic. Once finished with
your course you would set up an account with an autoresponder
service, like Aweber and set up sign up box on your site. When
people sign up for your course they start receiving each part of
the it on your specified publishing schedule. (once a day, once
every two days, whatever.)
In order to do that you need the traffic first. So, for our
immediate traffic this just won't work.
However, the other method will work wonders.
Once you're finished writing your course, and get set up with an
autoresponder service, give it away to other people. Kind of
like what you do with articles. Go to other websites and email
the owners offering your course as a free giveaway they can
offer their visitors. This works best if the website owner
includes it with their free offering when someone signs up for
their ezine. This may take a couple of days to start seeing
results from it, but it is worth it. Pretty soon thousands of
people can be visiting your site because of this free course.
A quick easy ad campaign
Advertising a website for traffic can be as hard or as simple as
you want to make it. You can get all complicated and try the
automated software. But, they will just be obsolete months after
you buy them. Or you can take the easy approach, one that will
never go out of style, and start seeing long lasting results
immediately.
I urge you to use all three of these methods and you'll see a
great increase in your traffic and sales.
