subject: How To Get Targeted Website Traffic Using A Blog [print this page] When you know how to get targeted website traffic using a blog you will have succeeded in enjoying not just any old traffic, but quality and valuable targeted traffic which will actually be interested in what you have to say and offer rather than the scenario of attempting to get traffic just for the sake of it which is really just a waste of time and effort.
A website can take the form of a traditional website platform created in html code or it can be a blog itself. The second option is easier and quicker to set up and can get you online quickly, and if you do have a traditional website then a blog is essential to compliment this as it is a very effective traffic generator both for itself and to feed this traffic over to your website.
Where you do have an established website, the blog should be used to publish content in the form of posts plus also there should be a section of full length articles that are divided up into categories that are defined by popular keywords and phrases. This will indicate to the search engines that your blog is one of original, valuable and helpful content which will help it rise in importance for search engine rankings.
Whenever you publish a new blog post, which should be focused around one keyword, you will receive an increase in traffic. You can then direct this traffic over to your main website or to a separate sign up page where visitors can join your email list and you can then start to be in regular contact with them and provide information, help and related product offers.
These blog posts can find their way onto all sorts of online platforms. Many website and blog owners accept guest posts and if the keyword or phrase you use is one that they accept as relevant content, then you have the chance to get your own content onto some important and high performing platforms that will in turn boost the quality of the links that are pointing back to your blog. This in turn will boost your blog's page rank which will have a positive effect on the ranking of your website if such a valuable resource has many links pointing to it.
By continuing to add more quality and valuable content to your blog, its importance will rise and the blog postings will find their way to high positions for the keyword used in the search engines. This in turn will bring more traffic to your blog and website. By taking regular action, the reach of your blog across the internet will keep on growing which, once again, will bring in more traffic, with a higher proportion of it being targeted. And there is no more valuable website and blog traffic than that classed as targeted.
Using this method, it is actually rather easy to achieve a consistent and growing level of targeted website traffic using a blog as you will be undertaking one of the most value adding components to your internet business, that being the regular publishing of unique quality content of which the search engines love and people find helpful and valuable.
