3 Ideas To Drive Traffic To Your Website Today<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

There are many ways in which you can improve the amount of traffic that you\u2019re getting to your website. Having a decent amount of traffic directed to you each day will dramatically improve your business sales, or simply how much money you make from the adverts you\u2019ve placed within your website. In this article, is going to be some ideas on how you can begin to drive more traffic to your website today, and start reaping the benefits as soon as possible.<\/p>\n

Social media<\/h2>\n

If used correctly, social media can be an extremely powerful tool to use to drive traffic to your website. Thousands, if not millions of companies around the world have had success simply due to the fact that they have used their social media accounts effectively enough to drive traffic to their website <\/a>.<\/p>\n

The first thing you need to do if you haven\u2019t already, is to make accounts on each of the social media platforms. The main successful platforms are:<\/p>\n

Facebook<\/b><\/p>\n

The majority of all social media users around the world have at least tried Facebook before. This is because it\u2019s so easy to use. With billions of users each day, it\u2019s easy to generate interest in posts that you create. Be sure to make any posts relevant to your target audience, and your website and you\u2019re sure to get people wanting to see what you\u2019re about.<\/p>\n

Twitter<\/b><\/p>\n

This is another very successful platform to use because of the use of hashtags, and the ability to connect with many more people through retweeting and mentions. If you manage to get the attention of a celebrity, who then retweets your content you can expect a rise in views immediately.<\/p>\n

Instagram<\/b><\/p>\n

With Instagram you have the ability to share interesting content through uploading eye catching photos and using relevant hashtags. The great thing about Instagram, is that you can use up to thirty hashtags per photo which will attract followers and clicks by itself. When it comes to your current followers, if the photo is relevant to the content you\u2019re uploading then you\u2019ll be able to generate traffic here too.<\/p>\n

Pinterest<\/b><\/p>\n

This is one of the best platforms for bloggers and website owners to use to advertise their content. You\u2019re now able to register for a business account totally free of charge. If you do this, you can enable rich pins which are bolder than regular pins; therefore attracting people to click on it. The magical part of Pinterest is that if someone \u2018repins\u2019 your content, they are then sharing it with all of their followers which gives you more of a chance of generating views.<\/p>\n

StumbleUpon<\/b><\/p>\n

This is a very underrated social media platform. Although at first it\u2019s not as clear to use as other platforms are, once you get the knack of it, it can generate hundreds, if not thousands of views per day for you. Much alike Pinterest, if someone \u2018stumbles\u2019 the content that you\u2019ve uploaded, then they are then showing off your content to other stumblers which in turn, increases the chance of your website getting traffic.<\/p>\n

There are of course, many other platforms that you could be using to generate traffic to your website, but those five tend to be the highest sources to drive traffic. If you\u2019ve not already, make accounts for at least these five platforms to ensure you\u2019re giving your website a chance of being recognised.<\/p>\n

Statistics<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s a common known fact that if a company can display good statistics on their website and work, then it will make them seem more trustworthy; therefore people will be more likely to come to your website. Using a service like simplesat.io <\/a> would be perfect to display just that for your potential customers because it\u2019s a service that allows users to rate your services, and even give you as the website owner feedback on your site so that if needed, you can make improvements.<\/p>\n

Also, displaying any impressive statistics that you\u2019ve built over the years like highest month of sales, how many followers you have on social media, and also any recommendations you\u2019ve had from customers will also help show potential clients that you\u2019re the company they should be going with. If you\u2019re using a hosting platform like WordPress, you should be able to display website views using an widget that\u2019s available. If you\u2019re particularly proud of your growing statistics and views, then put this on show so that people can see how rapidly you\u2019ve improved. This will make them want to view so that they can make sure they\u2019re not missing out on anything.<\/p>\n

Content<\/h2>\n

To make sure that people are coming to your website, you need to be offering them content that they can gain something from. If you have a particular skill set, you could be showing them how they can do it at home.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re not offering your potential visitors anything to take away with them after visiting your website, then you can expect to not receive many views. People love anything for free, so if you\u2019re able to offer a freebie like a free downloadable item, then they are more likely to want to visit your website.<\/p>\n

Giveaways and competitions are also another great way of driving traffic to your website because of the fact that your viewers are essentially getting something for nothing. All they have to do is enter, share your content, and possibly follow a few of your social media accounts. Make sure that whichever platform you\u2019re using to host your giveaway from that you abide by their terms of use. Some of them do not allow you to ask for your viewers to share the content, so be wary of that. A great platform to use is Rafflecopter <\/a> because there is a completely free version too if you\u2019re not willing to spend any money on it. There\u2019s even a special tool that you can use to announce your winner. It\u2019s wise to run your competition for at least a month to ensure that you\u2019re getting enough attention to that post and getting in as many views as possible.<\/p>\n

As you can see, using these three simple ways of driving traffic to your website will make sure that you\u2019re current views per day will rise. Implement these today to notice an immediate difference!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
