A lot of website owners go crazy over building traffic for their websites. They try every other technique they can find to get more traffic to their website. Traffic building can be a very tricky thing. You might build the wrong web traffic and then all your efforts can go to waste. By wrong traffic I am referring to the spam and bots that are usually delineated as web traffic but are actually not. The wrong traffic can give you a wrong estimation of the actual traffic to your website and thus it can turn into a financial or monetary disaster.
For your convenience, I am going to tell you about some of the things required for the traffic building which will help you increase traffic to your website without getting the wrong web traffic. The DO's for traffic building are listed below. Enjoy and act upon them!
1. Analyze your website and compare with the competitors website. Evaluate what strategies your competitor uses that you are not implementing.
2. Imitate the successful traffic building strategies of your competitors by adding a little increment of your own.
3. Avoid the blunders that your competitors have made while trying to get traffic to their website.
4. Learn from your own mistakes and blunders. There is no better teacher than self experience.
5. Create networks. Believe in the power of relationships. Relationships are networks. Your relationships whether personal or professional can get more traffic to your website than you alone! Form more whenever and wherever you can.
6. Develop valuable content. If your content is valuable the traffic will come to you all by itself. The only effort you will have to make will be making them aware that you exist!
7. Use videos to increase traffic. Videos convey better than text. Make short but professional videos to promote your website and upload them on famous video communities, top of the list being YouTube. You Tube has more than a million regular traffic views. If you make a successful video who knows a good portion of the regular million is transferred to your website in just one day!
8. Participate actively in online communities. Your participation is considered by the traffic as your credibility. The more you participate, the more chances you have of getting more traffic. Make your participation to the point and credible. If you blabber, you'll be labeled spam. So be careful! I would personally advise you to be an active member of yahoo answers community.
9. Be a blogger. Blog it yourself or be a guest blogger and promote your website. Blogs have gained popularity and millions of people come online just to read blogs. If you successfully promote your website through this you are going to get traffic for sure!
10. Promote through article marketing. In the marketing language it would not be wrong to refer to this as covert advertising. All you have to do is create a valuable article on any topic within the industry that you are working in and give it to article directories such as ezine and etc. You will be allowed to add link to your website which will hopefully bring you lots of web traffic!
