I have two travel sites plz tell me how increase traffic on my website and plz tell me Is the diretory submission helpful to increase keyword rank on Google??
Yes, directories submission can help, but you have to look for quality directories submission sites and not just anyone.
You can just add your link to some social bookmarking sites and just focus on offpage optimization more than on page. Directory Submisson is an another way to boost traffic but focus on Social Networking Sites and Offpage Optimization.
advertise with adwords, build backlinks with directories, social bookmarking, etc. Traveling is a competitive niche, good luck
Video Marketing is an often ignored strategy for bringing in traffic to a website. If done correctly, it can bring in a lot of traffic and sales to your website.
sign up with different travel portal, try with ppc with relevant niche keywords, use directory submission only in relevant category for your category
Directory submission may be useful, but your backlinking strategy needs to have many channels to it also consider; 1. Do follow blogging, 2. Do follow forum posting (create a signature link here at DP and also Sitepoint forums and warriror forum) 3. Reciprocal links to sites in the same niche as your own 4. Writing and posting articles on article directory sites
Directory submission won't give any results. There are only several directories that are considered to be of high quality. Other directories are nothing more than just a crap. Try to do linkbuilding to get traffic from search engines.
I love to see moderator patient how they are tolerating useless stuff like this the whole thread is moving around effective less advices expect one or two posts. For traffic on the site you really need to develop a killer content and you need to also create a strong strategy that how you can market your unique content what every you do publish on SB sites SN sites forum posting or blog posting. SEO and traffic is very closy things to generate business from your website, and really need to inculcation on strong strategical work.
To increase traffic, you need a long-term approach unless you're buying adwords. You need to build up quality content on your sites. You should have Facebook pages, Twitter accounts, and build up followers in relevant niches. You also need backlinks and writing guest posts is the best way to get quality backlinks.
I would definitely recommend improving content and do more backlinks (quality backlinks from NON-spam sites)
Advertise your presence. Besides using links, you must make use of numerous other ways to increase web traffic. Sit down and write a list of all the ways you can think of to get your web address noticed and clicked on
For my experience, I can say that directory submission really have a bunch of help if the site have this "single" directory traffic which I'm talking about travel directories. Of course if you want traffic to your site, what I suggest is dealing with .social media sites, I'm not in particular with social networking sites only, it's more on a combination of social bookmarking and networking sites. Of course for travel sites, it's better to try check-in sites like Foursquare, Gowalla, and Facebook Places.
