subject: Surefire Ways To Increase Site Traffic [print this page] Increase site traffic to a new website when it has no visitors can be a scary task. That is why the beginning steps are so important. Keyword research needs to be put into a plan that you can use.
This is what most people do; they just put up web pages without having any kind of system set up. 3 things go into keyword research: how much search volume a word gets, who you are targeting and taking a look at the competition. When you put up a website without a given plan, 6 months will go by and you'll wonder why you don't have any traffic. The bottom line is you shouldn't put together a website without a plan. Sure the plan takes some time, but it's time that is well worth it. Two things can be left out of keyword research. They are picking words without a target or picking a keyword that has so much competition that it will be hard to rank for.
Spend more time picking your keywords than any other task you have for your website. Study these words. Now you'll have a better idea of what to write in your content because you took the time to do so. This will be your step ladder to success. How many times has one keyword be searched for? Finding out this information will help you with your ranking. Now that this is all done, you'll have a good idea of how many visitors you will get to your new web site and just how long it will take you to reach this goal.
It's a straight forward plan that I use. I do the same steps every time I start a new website. Many times people will seek out advice when it comes to this and the advisor seems to leave how important the keyword research is, out. I don't get it why something this important would be left out.
Let's say we have 2 different websites, an ecommerce one and a sales letter. Keywords will be easier to come up with for the ecommerce website than the sales letter. I'll pick the longer tailed keywords first for the ecommerce site. Now go back to your written plan and you'll rank for these words quickly.
Sales letters only have a few pages. What is in the mind of the person that is buying the product has to be answered in order to rank well. Free traffic generation methods can always be used.
In closing, if you take the time to put your keyword list together, you'll find it easier to write your plan. Follow these steps and you'll have increase site traffic for your web site in no time at all.
