How to Increase Bloggger Website Visitor Traffic Very Quickly
MR JIM - For a blogger or online business, traffic is very important because all bloggers or internet marketers want their website to be famous and to become a profitable business. Actually there are many ways we can do to help increase the number of visitors [24hours] to our site. We can do some efforts to increase traffic to our site for free, but there are also traffic sources that really need capital. What kind of strategy is most suitable for your blog/website?
In this article I will try to explain several ways to increase potential traffic for our website, either for free or in a paid way. Even though there are many ways we can do it, not all methods can be suitable for the type of blog/website that we have. We must be wise in choosing traffic sources so that the results are maximized.
Increase Blog / Website Traffic in a Free Way
As I mentioned before, we can get traffic to our business site or blog for free. But it takes continuous effort and in the right way so that the traffic we get is what we expect. Here are some ways to increase blog/website visitor traffic for free:
1. Through the Walking Blog
Blog walking is the activity of visiting other people's blogs/websites that are still related to our blog, then leaving comments on the blog/website. There are many blogs that provide fields for leaving website URLs for people who leave comments on their sites, this is what we should make the best use of.
Never leave SPAM comments on other people's blogs because it will only give you a bad image as a blogger or internet marketer. Make it a habit to read articles written first before leaving comments so that you understand giving comments that are appropriate to the topic of the article.
By commenting properly and leaving our blog URL in the column provided, you will get a backlink to your site. In addition, it is very likely that other visitors to the blog will also visit your site when they see the comments you provide. From the process of blog walking, we can get quite a lot of traffic, but it takes extra effort by giving comments on other blogs first.
2. Through Social Bookmarking Sites
Social bookmarking sites were originally created to help netters save the website addresses they like, so that it will make it easier for them when they want to open the website in the future. In its development, social bookmarking sites are often used for SEO optimization and also to get traffic more and more. Well, what I write here is the direct traffic from Social bookmarking, not the effect on the SEO of a site.
We can save the URL of our blog/website or the URL of our blog article posting to social bookmarking sites, with the hope that other users will be interested in the URL that we submitted and visit our site with the social bookmarking media. In addition, social bookmarking sites also often get traffic from search engines [SEO] GOOGLE . So, in my opinion, the possibility of getting traffic from social bookmarking sites is quite potential and must be put to good use.
3. Through Social Media Sites
Many people say, now is the era of social media and that is very true. The growth of social media users in Indonesia alone has experienced a very significant increase. In addition, the development of smartphones in Indonesia has been very rapid. Most smartphone users must have accounts on social media sites, at least one of the social media sites. Well, of course, this is a big enough traffic potential for us blog/website owners.
Businesses that are popular on social media will definitely have no problem getting the attention of other social media users. That is why many businesses experience increased profits after they optimize social media for their business. Some social media that are often used to get traffic are Facebook, Twitter, Google plus, YouTube, LinkedIn and Pinterest. Actually there are still several social media that can be used, but based on my experience, the 6 sites that I mentioned are the most popular social media.
4. Via the Forum Site
Discussion forum sites are often used by internet marketers as a medium to get traffic to their business blogs/websites. There are many forum sites that allow links in threads or in the signatures of their Your BLOG members. Of course, this must be utilized as well as possible.
One thing we have to pay attention to is to maintain a good name in the forum, read the rules in the forum before going any further. Don't create useless threads or threads that can tarnish your reputation. Take advantage of the forum signature link facility as well as possible, take advantage of the link facility in forum threads fairly. There are some forums that don't allow links in threads, don't break those rules.
Some of the forums that I recommend to get traffic and backlinks are entrepreneur.co, social.com, forum.kompas.com, forum.detik.com, kaskus.co.id, and others. There are still many forums that we can use to get referral traffic, but I suggest focusing on some of the forums that have the most potential for your business.
5. Guest Posting on Other Blogs
There are many blogs that provide opportunities for other people to submit articles/content and put links on their blogs. Of course, the articles/content that we post on the blog must comply with the criteria they specify. We can put our business site link in the author section, some blogs allow their authors to put links in the article. Apart from providing an SEO effect, there is certainly quite a lot of referral traffic from these blogs, especially if we write articles on well-known blogs.
Actually there are many other free ways to get visitors to our site. But the five ways that I have mentioned above are actually very good if we can optimize them. I myself focus on these four methods because apart from providing direct traffic, the four methods I have mentioned above have proven to have a good SEO impact on my blog. Good SEO will certainly allow our site to get free traffic from search engines, such as Google.
Increase Blog / Website Traffic in Paid Ways
For those of you who don't want to wait for the optimization process in a free way, then a paid way can be done to get traffic to your business blog/website. Advertising in several media can have a very good impact in increasing traffic, but so that it's not too wasteful, it's a good idea to choose media that is truly effective and in accordance with the target business site. The following are several ways to increase blog/website visitor traffic in a paid way:
1. Placing Ads on Social Media
Facebook is the most effective social media for placing ads because ad conversions on this social media have proven to be very good. On Facebook Ads, we can choose the target audience that best fits the category we need, this will affect the effectiveness of the ads we post.
Based on my experience, placing ads on Facebook Ads is very easy to do. We can set how much budget we want to spend on an ad click, and we can also set the target audience according to our business.
2. Placing PPC Ads
Google Adwords is the most well-known PPC advertising media provider company today. This Google-owned company already has a network of advertisers and publishers with a very large number around the world, including in Indonesia. The advantage of Google Adwords is that the ads that appear on their publisher's site are ads that match the article.
I personally have never advertised on Google Adwords, but there are many testimonials from their advertisers who say they are satisfied with Google Adwords services and have had a positive impact on their business. Well, for those of you who want to get potential traffic to your business site, there's nothing wrong with trying Google Adwords.
3. Placing Ads on Online Classified Ad Sites
Another way to get traffic to your blog/business website is to use classified ad sites. Actually there are many classified ad sites that provide free classified ad space, but I prefer paid ones because usually the results are much better than free ones.
Conclusion:
We don't need to do all the marketing strategies to get traffic to our site. We have to understand about our own site first, that way we can know which strategy is more effective for increasing visitor traffic to our blog/website.
Sometimes the free method is quite effective, but in many cases, the paid method is faster and more effective in providing potential traffic for our business blog/website. Apart from that, we also have to pay attention to matters related to the quality of our website, such as content quality, navigation system, loading speed, and so on. Hope this article helps.
