Link Building and RSS Feeds in Website Traffic Creation

Monday, July 11th, 2011

In any traffic building exercise, there are a number of processes that we need to look at completing.

 

You see, I discovered, by very hard experience that there really is no such thing as push button software that just makes it all work for you. Certainly, there are some software systems that help, to a degree, but overall, it is all about actually doing the work of patient link building, providing quality content, and building a presence on the web that is natural in growth.

 Creating Backlinks Over Time

I know it takes time, but that is the point, it is all about creating a natural build in links inwards, pointing to your site.

 

You see, whilst there is no doubt that the algorithms of the search engines are always changing, the fact remains that humans are not. We want quality-

  • We want to see on a website what we are searching for
  • and we want the website to load fast
Effectively, we need to develop as many backlinks from authority sites as possible, using our variouskey words in the link hypertext. In order to understand this, there are programs like backlink builders to help you although I still like to include the manual process of writing articles, and creating links from .edu blogs and the like.
I will be writing more about this tomorrow, but for now, concentrate on actually creating quality backlinks to your site from quality pages.
I do this in the following ways:
  • I create great articles that have my keyword linked back to my sites
  • I create squidoo pages with great content
  • I comment and create guest posts on .edu extension blogs
  • I also create guest posts on authority sites, and feed my links to RSS aggregators as well.
  • I regularly update my blogs eityh new material to help them remain informative and updated for humans and the engines.

Traffic Avalanche: Using Other People’s Resources

Friday, January 15th, 2010

Who works the hardest? The CEO, the shareholders or the factory workers? You know the answer — the factory worker. In fact the shareholders don’t really do any work. Their money works for them. They take advantage of the best brains and labor to get their aims achieved.

You’ll do a lot of work if you plan to drive all your site’s traffic yourself. You don’t need to even if you plan to work very long hours on your site’s traffic. Your time is better spent making the most of other people’s resources.

You can take advantage of all the work that’s been done by great sites like EzineArticles.com. They get tens of thousands of visitors daily. All you have to do is write high value articles and post in the appropriate categories. If your article is well written and optimized, it will certainly be picked faster by the search engines than it would be on your new site.

You’ll tap into traffic that comes to their site directly (That amounts to several tens of thousands of visitors daily). You’ll also get those that come from search engines results.

Furthermore, you’ll also build up your link popularity. Links from sites that have a page rank of up to 7 are pure gold as far as helping your site’s standing with the search engines.

You can also post useful comments on blogs with high page rank and/or traffic. That way you’ll build some quality links to your site apart from getting some quality traffic.

There are many ways you can tap into other people’s resources online. While you brainstorm, use the two I’ve mentioned here.

Understanding ourselves is also critical to traffic creation. Why do I say this?  Well, I have found that I need to be focused, and completely at ease, in order to relax enough, and ‘place myself’ in the head of the person reading my website.  What questions are they asking?  What do They want information on? What is their real issue or question.

To learn more about this, and other website traffic issues, I highly recommend the Traffic Recipe Cookbook, as well as the Self help data base.

How To Increase Targeted Web Site Traffic

Thursday, January 7th, 2010

I get on average around 10,000 to 12,000 unique visitors
to my main site each month. Actually, when you’re speaking
about the Internet, that’s not too much to brag about, but
it’s better than getting say 1000 or 2000 visitors; that
was my usual rate until I aggressively went after targeted
traffic for my site.

I thought I would briefly and in very simple terms explain
how I increased the targeted traffic to my main site from
around 1,000 to 10,000 unique visitors each month. That’s
a ten-fold increase — I am aiming for a hundred-fold increase
but would gladly settle for thirty or forty times the traffic.

How did I increase my site’s traffic? The answer might just
help you get more traffic to your own site. Most of these
techniques are very simple to implement and if you’re
serious about building an online business, lets face it,
the first thing you’re going to need is targeted visitors to
your site.

I hope you have noticed I have mentioned the words ‘targeted
visitors’ several times already. I did this to bring home
the fact that you’re not just after traffic but targeted
traffic or visitors to your site. You want visitors to
your site who are already interested in your site’s topic
and who are more likely to benefit from your site’s content
or products.

It’s the first ingredient for a successful web site.

Below are my 5 main sources of targeted traffic to
my site. Along with a short explanation of how you
can create or put the same practices to work for your
own site.

1. RSS EMPOWERED One of most effective sources of traffic
to my site would have to be my blogs and RSS feeds. Notice
I said blogs and feeds; I have created simple blogs and feeds
for the major topics of my site: on rss resources, web
hosting solutions, notebook computers, etc. These blogs
and feeds bring in a great number of targeted visitors
to my site.

With the introduction of Google Blog Search, my blog traffic
is increasing even more. Within minutes of posting to my
blog – I am getting targeted traffic from Google. You
are instantly indexed by Google Blog Search; it’s reason
enough for every webmaster to put at least one blog
on their site.

Try to imagine the traffic you’ll get when the next
RSS empowered Windows browser arrives from Microsoft.
Get your own site ready and prepared for RSS to take
advantage of all this traffic. Just use Google owned
blogger.com to create your blog — it has that all
important blog search bar at the top!

2. SEO EMPOWERED Seo optimization should be your
goal! Still the main source of traffic to my site are
the search engines. Mainly from Google, followed by
MSN and Yahoo. You must optimize your site for the search
engines. This includes off/site links and on/site tactics.

I have been online since ’98 so I thought I knew how to
optimize a website. Boy, was I ever wrong! I didn’t notice
a big jump in my traffic until I stumbled across a SEO
expert, actually stumble is the wrong word, I actually sought out
the best SEO expert I could find. His name is Brad Callen.
He offers a free email course on how to optimize your
sites for the search engines. His main product is SEO Elite.

Just the free course and his helpful newsletter have
really fine-tuned my site, which resulted in a major
increase of traffic especially from Google. You should
try the same for your site or sites and see the results
for yourself.

3. ARTICLE EMPOWERED This one works. Article marketing for
me has been the major reason for the turn around in the
amount of traffic my sites were receiving. It’s one of the
most effective ways to get targeted visitors to your site.

Getting your articles published in ezines and on sites
such as addme.com or sitepronews.com will generate an
enormous amount of traffic to your site. As a bonus, you
even get 100′s of subscribers to your own ezine in one day!

The trick is to write helpful how-to articles on current
topics that other webmasters want on their sites, this will
boost your link popularity with the search engines and
increase your rankings. You must also very carefully
choose the right keywords to target in your articles,
matching the content on your site. One way to do this
is with a site like http://www.nichebot.com — it will show
how to pick the right ‘competitive’ keywords for your
site. You must target keywords that have high traffic,
yet little competition from competing web sites.

My main sources of traffic from article sites include
http://www.ezinearticles.com and http://www.buzzle.com.

4. EZINE EMPOWERED Building a large opt-in list or subscribers
to my ezine is another method that brings in a lot of traffic
to my site. You can use an ezine to offer helpful tips to your
subscribers. It is a very easy way to get repeat visitors
to your site and build up a relationship with your visitors.

Your ezine should relate to your site’s theme and offer
more information on the same. Whether you believe it not,
if you operate a site on a particular subject for a couple of
years, you will fast become an expert on that subject.
People will regard you as such and this will also bring
in visitors to your site.

5. VIRAL MARKETING EMPOWERED Another way to attract targeted
visitors is to offer a free product or service. I use free
brandable reports that visitors can download and use. These
reports and ebooks have links back to my sites. One of my most
popular ones is a timely report and guide on how to use and
benefit from RSS on all your sites. It brings in a lot of traffic.

Similar to the one above, I use other free viral techniques to
build targeted traffic to my site. These are products that can
be branded with your links and passed around. Helpful software
programs that match the theme of your site are good choices to
make.

Another popular one that I have on my site is the DATEwise
eCalendar and personal planner that visitors can download and
place on their desktops. It has hotlinks to my site that brings
in traffic. It can be customized with your site’s products so
you get targeted visitors or customers.

OTHER SOURCES There are other sources of traffic for my site that
I find effective but they bring in lesser traffic than the methods
listed above. But they are still worth mentioning, one of these is
regular posting on major online forums. This brings in very good
targeted traffic, so too, is posting comments in online blogs.

Another good source is a traffic exchange called ‘Traffic Swarm’ – most
sites where members exchange traffic don’t work. You get worthless
hits to your site. However, Traffic Swarm is one exception that
your should try. You just set your start page to this exchange, and
click on sites you want to visit.

Increasing targeted traffic to your site is an ongoing struggle
for every webmaster. I hope you can try some of the techniques
that have worked for me. I am sure they will also work for you.

Empower your site with targeted traffic!

YouTube Traffic Secrets – 5 Exciting YouTube Tricks to Increase Targeted Website Traffic Fast

Monday, December 21st, 2009

Getting an increased number of targeted website traffic will make most internet marketers very happy. On the other hand, accumulating this type of traffic with YouTube and other video sharing sites makes the job a little bit easier.

Google pays close attention to videos and tends to rank them above all other content generated online. I want to embark on 5 exciting YouTube video secret tricks to help you increase targeted website traffic and leads to your blogs and websites online.

1. Show your Face Often– This will probably be the easiest most hardest tip ever. Most people are too shy or afraid to show their face on video let alone on the internet. However, I encourage you to get past this fear, which stems from the EGO.

What does this tip have to do with getting more traffic? Showing your face on camera is part of branding yourself as an expert marketer. The more you show up on video sharing sites, the more people will begin to take attention to what you are offering.

2. Leave Bait– Leaving the bait means leaving your website link available for your prospect to check out more information. In the description area on YouTube, you want to make sure you leave your bait before writing out the summary of your video. This will not only create more traffic for your websites, but more quality backlinks pointing back to your content, which helps move you up in the SERPS.

3. Rich Keywords– Having the proper keywords located in your title, description, and tags will give the Google spiders something to munch on. As these spiders crawl your video content, you should very well see a push up in the SERPS. Make sure you carefully pick the right keywords that are more targeted. Long tail keywords will make it easier for your video to rank on page one of Google.

4. Post Video to Blog– Once you have optimized your video for the search engines, now it’s time to give your blog some content love. Posting your video to your blog will bring even more traffic to your sites. You may want to change the tile and keywords a little to add fresh food for the Google spiders to crawl.

5. Bookmark Your Content– After you post your video to your blog, make sure you bookmark your content to Digg, Propeller, Facebook, Twitter, etc. This will create an immediate surge of visitors to your money page or capture page. If you are using a WordPress blog, you should have a bookmark plugin install for this convenience.
