What are your ways to get more traffic through online marketing ?

I want to know what are you guys doing to get more traffic ? are you focusing on content and inbound marketing or doing some paid marketing ?

Thanks

 

It's a matter of thinking also difficult if not impossible to find out a better way to increase more traffic. The strategies vary from person to person though these have changed dramatically in the past few years. I know a friend of mine he uses mixed strategies which all are ethical and most impotent method he thinks website contents should be SEO friendly where your contents' title related with popular search terms so that anyone can find your contents easily and for that he emphasis to off-side link backs.

 

In my opinion, as this niche is getting too competitive, I don't think you can survive solely on just ONE method. I think it is about finding the methods that you are comfortable with and formulate all into a strategy.

For myself:
- YouTube
- Facebook
- Google+
- Giving away freebies/Free Lead System
- Website & SEO
- Solo Ads

 

I recently had a Patch Cable App developed for Android and put it up on the Google Play Store. Part of the intent was to make is easier for my current customers to buy cables, be sure they are picking the right type, etc. However, it is my hope that the Google Play Store finds me new prospects and sends them to my website. Not sure if that will work, but it is a new way to generate traffic that I am trying.

 

That's a good idea. Mobile traffic is hot and going into the Play store is definitely wise.

 

Ya, it's also a hot strategy to get more traffic easily.To generate more traffic update your new blog posts and link someone.

 

Blog commenting and forum marketing on blogs and forums in your niche.

 

There are many ways to get traffic. For beginners, a blog aka money site is a great start. This is your audiences portal for your current and future mediums.

Of course traffic will only be good if you can rank your contents on Serps(Search engines). You can have the most epic content that can save all of humanity, but if you dont know how to network it for the world's eyes to see, all is in vain.

The best, fastest and safest way to rank on Google is to have a mindset like a farmer.

Every content you create are seeds that in the future will become your harvest.

You can use different types of "seeds" like youtube seeds since its the second to Google as a search engine and you can rank pretty quickly on youtube even without any backlinks.

You just have to optimize your youtube videos step by step:

Step 1: keyword must be in title. Having a researched keyword on your title that you are trying to rank for. Same thing applies with your blog post title.

Step 2: have a good description with your link to your blog post and blog site. Eg.
http://www.yourname.com - visit my site to learn more about how to increase google ranking - http://www.yourname.com/rank-google-tips

Step 3:Next create a mini blog on description with jeywords and lsi keyword.

Step 4: put time stamps on key points on your vids at the beginning of your paragraph
00:10 - i discuss about video marketing
01:20 - i discuss about email marketing

Step 5: create a bright image for your video

Step 6: transcript. I know its hard work but to be on top you must do captions on your videos.

Step 7: embed your youtube video on your blog.

Step 8: optimize your blog post On page by using seopressor plugin

Step 9: publish

Step 10: create pyramid backlinks
Low tier backlinks like comments ==> high tier links like web 2.0 ==> to your blog Aka money site.

Step 11: post your blog link to your social mediums like facebook and youtube.

While you wait for your content to rank on Google(may take a few weeks even Optimized), this is where you can invest on paid ads like, solo ads, ppv or ppc.

This is by far the best way to scale your business and exposure. Your ATM is in your targeted responsive hungry list whatever niche it is so do your research on good solo ads and ppv providers.

Once you get profit from sales, keep 30% for yourself and 70% reinvest back for your business and paid traffic to keep scaling and building your list.

Finally, you must take care of your list like flowers. Watering them with inspirational and motivational stories of your own or others.

Never shove your affiliate products down your list's throat all the time. There is time and place for everything.

You should really build your relationship first by asking them what they need help with, what problems they may have or ask them for their opinion on topics.

This is the best way I find to get people to convert. Making sales is important and without it your business dies but people never join business affiliates or buy products. People join people.

People will join and buy from people they can trust because its a natural human reaction from relations.

Hope this helps you out to get ranking on top, building your list and have converting traffic!
