It's not about getting as many visitors a day. It's not even about raising your visitors seven times overnight. It's about giving people what they want, not what you think they want to grow in value and traffic through it.
You do not understand me. It is not like that? Let's make it clear. When you have a site or a blog, if you want good traffic, then you have to advertise, right? But you will not do this anyway. And here's how we get to the first method:
- Advertise people interested in what you post on your blog
This means that you do not want to save your whole messenger list with your blog about business on the net when they just know what the browser is (I gave an example 😛). You have to turn to people who like to do business online and who would like to learn more. So advertising can be done by
Link exchange / banners exchange
The most common form of traffic generation. Do you have a friend who owns a similar site or blog to your content? Suggest an exchange of links or banners. Do not you know anyone about this? Nothing. Search on Google. For example, if you have a climbing site, you can look for "climbing", "extreme sports, etc." Most websites / blogs have a contact address where you can send mail. Do it.
b. Paid advertising
If you have money, you can pay for your site to show on other sites of the same profile. An example would be Google AdWords.
Whatever you do, try as much as possible to attract to your blog people who are interested in what you present there. The worst sale is to give man what he does not need, hoping to buy from you. Once the visitor category is interested in the information coming from your blog, you will create a community that will appeal to you whenever it needs.
- Write articles "personally" and thoroughly detailed
Do not understand that I have something with bloggers. It is super ok to have a blog, write about what you are passionate about and wait for the opinions of others. But if you want to make money from what you do, then it's time to give up superficial articles and two-row posts about how your toothbrush broke.
Look at your competition. See how many are. For example, if you have 100 competitors who write 10 articles each in the same field, there are 1000 items, each with a different quality. Here are some questions you should ask before writing the article:
a. What do you say differently in the article vs. the competition? What can you add?
This time it all happened. If you have a good article, then the blogosphere will link to you. With a bit of luck you'll jump into the eyes of a popular blogger that will generate a bunch of traffic to your site.
b. What information does the competition miss to publish and what can you do?
Potential customers are often looking for well structured articles that contain as much information as possible. So do not take the risk of being misinformed if an important thing is overlooked.
c. Can the article you write be written by anyone in your spare time?
If so, then do not do it. Unless you want to waste your time. And in business, time matters. Anyone can write three rows about a car. But not everyone knows how to explain the principles of operation. There is no point in wasting the content. There are a lot of people in the world who would do what you do for free. And you do not want to do "for free", right?
Why am I telling you all this? Because I know what your purpose is. Make money. On the Internet there is a bunch of people looking for quick tips and short answers. Those are not your customers. Let them cut the leaf to the dogs. Let them use Google. Focus on the 5% who want detailed, well-structured and personalized items. That's your golden source
- Make a list of subscribers (newsletter)
It is very important to keep in touch with your potential customers. When a connection is established between two people, some barriers are removed and trust is gained. Who do you think she will buy the person? From a guy he just knows, or from a friend?
How do you maintain a good relationship between you and your subscribers?
a. Send them mail for a set period
Set a period of time to send messages to your readers. Respect it! It is not good to disappoint the world. Trust is lost.
b. Give them free stuff, and among them, launch products
Write a free PDF, search for interesting sites in the same domain, and share them with your subscribers. It offers things that people would normally be willing to pay for money, and when you launch a product, you will have more success than if you simply launched it.
c. Have them interact (organize contests, promote their opinion)
People want to be listening. Even if we do not realize, unconsciously, we're doing things for the sake of competition. For the sake of showing us or others that we are better. That's why you can organize prize competitions. Offer a product of yours for free. And the winner will most likely advertise you. Not to mention the whole contest. Is there someone in your blog who has interesting ideas? Very good. Ask them. Develop them together. Maybe a new project comes out.
