    You need to create and post great content that will attract your social networks. For example, create infographics that will help them and host the infographic on your site. That is one example. Also, is your website a business website? Why do you want them to come to your site? When you answer those questions and provide your followers something of value that makes them visit your website then you will solve your traffic issue.

    Actually attracting traffic via social media can be a challenge. You might want to analyze the approach that your competitors take. You'll need to find a way to connect with your target audience. Get active on those networks sharing good content and instigating conversation. In addition to connecting with your target audience, try connecting with users who are best able to spread your message. If you can leverage their followers/friends, you can get much wider exposure.

    Follow the advice of the last two posts.

    Make some ads (think about what kind of traffic you want), and make a whole lot of different ones, then start testing. Rotate those ads. Test, test, test. Soon you'll start to notice what is really working.

    Get in there and be relevant. Find some passions to stir.

    STEPS to GET MASSIVE TRAFFIC FROM SOCIAL MEDIA
    1. create a keyword filter in
    twitter and facebook for
    A. your direct competitors'
    urls
    names
    B. your keywords
    -- you will find everybody who is resharing, liking, and RTing urls in your niche.

    2. Contact everyone directly.
    -- ask them a question instead of commanding them to do something like "hey check out my blah blah"

    3. Change your social media username to IMMEDIATELY suggest what you blog about
    -- this way, you don't have to talk about yourself. If someone is interested in following or friending another blogger in your niche, they will find out more on their own and chose to follow you or not. just give people the opportunity. don't pressure them.

    4. Know your limits.
    A. Twitter has a 250 tweet per hour limit
    B. Twitter has an unlimited subscribe
    C. Facebook as a 3-7 friend limit per day (based on your current friend count)
    etc..

    5. there are 27 more stats from this youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuajT8uCyks

    Its important for every website to participate in social media sites like twitter, facebook, linkedin to get some more traffic other than search engines like google, yahoo, bing. Its good to create profile in the name of your website and upload your logo in your profile image and other necessary details about your website contacts so that users can easily cantact you through there.
    Now a days search engines giving more priority for the websites which is participated in Socail media sites so its good to join in social media sites. Not only simply create profile you need to research on that how we can promote there then only we can get some more extra traffic from social media sites.

    1. Ask your visitors and fans what they think about your page
    2. Try not to direct updates from your blog or Twitter profile to your brand page automatically

    I`ll be surprised if anyone can read all these advices. But, heres my take on social media which I wrote an article about and if you want I can provide the link.

    If you already have a targeted audience, ask yourself this, "have I asked the person who's huge in that area" a simple shout out. Think about what he/she can benefit from you, then exchanging for that shout out, you`ll receive peoples comments on your page or post.

    It depends on how you handle it and what social media site you will use. If you want to concentrate on Facebook, you can advertise your site through facebook ads.The good thing about this is that you are able to target a market and know their demographics, interest. and likes. In this way, you can determine whether a specific market is interested in your product or service or not.

    Before venturing into something, you should conduct research first pertaining to your market. Analyze the situation and weigh your options. In this way, you are able to avoid the hit and miss game that a lot of marketers do.

    Make your account in different social media channels and consecutively update these. Also, send their invitations to more and more people.
