It is easy to do SEO when you already have a developed site.
It's easy to spend money on paid advertising when you're already established and have a successful company.
But what if you are new, when you are just creating your brand and website?
How to increase site traffic?
In this text, we will go through quick and effective ways to increase visitors to your site.
In fact, it's great if you have a brand new site because you'll be able to make sure these techniques really work. Apply them, follow the analytics and you will see how the number of visitors increases.
1. Collaborate with other content creators
Have you ever thought about creating content with other creators?
Let's say, depending on the topic you are dealing with, you can create joint podcasts, webinars, texts, actions, projects with other people... You can interview each other.
With that they promote you and you promote them. It's a win-win situation.
If you may still have nothing to offer another creator (in terms of promotion), it's perfectly okay to host them, interview them, or ask them for a review. People like to be important, they feel flattered. They like that their opinion matters.
When you include them in your project or site and publish it.. What do you think they will do?
He will share it with himself, he will tease you. And that automatically means more traffic on your website. Some won't want to share, but believe me the 30-40% will, which is enough.
2. Give away
The so-called "giveaway" is a popular and effective concept for increasing followers.
You can give away a part of your service, free advice or something related to your product, but in cooperation with another creator it is even more interesting to the audience as a gift.
People share giveaways and that's how you win more visits on your website. More traffic means more regular followers that stay, which ultimately results in yours business success.
When you publish a giveaway, use the option that the condition for participation is to leave data, the most important of which is your e-mail.
Once you've created a mailing list of all the people who left their addresses, you can send them offers and news later. And don't be afraid to do that, because those people were interested as soon as they left their email so you have a relatively interested audience.
3. Notices
Once someone visits your site, even if they like it, there's little chance they'll come back.
Follow Google Analytics and you will see that even after three months of increased traffic, only 1% returns to the site.
Therefore, create a subscription option on your website. So you can send them notifications, without them even leaving their e-mail or other personal information.
It is important that you establish a more permanent relationship with them and that you send them notifications that they return to your site.
4. Paid advertisements
Even if you don't have a lot of money, you can do anything.
Did you know that Google AdWords sometimes even gives "free" budget for commercials? You can check how it works.
It's not a bad start, it can't hurt, it can only bring you new followers. Maybe those followers won't turn into clients or customers, but your story will expand and develop.
5. Recommendations
Connect with people, companies or manufacturers you respect.
Respond often to their posts, to news and let them know that you respect their work.
In time, when you need it, you can ask them for a recommendation and they will be happy to do it because you have created a relationship of trust and support. It's always good to have a recommendation from those who are already admit it.
6. Comments
Comment publicly on other sites, blogs, projects... But in detail.
Not at all: "You're great", "Very nice" or, far from it, emoticons...
If you give people the right feedback, they will appreciate it. Other readers will also appreciate it and ask how to reach you.
And the chances are high that you will comment back.
So, comment under your name and your website link, so they can to find you.
Apply these tips, track the analytics and watch the results. If you need additional advice and a more detailed elaboration of a successful strategy, contact us!
