Generating Traffic for your blog or site

Hi friends,

Today I will show you how to increase traffic or user page views for your blog or website which will make your blog or site famous over the internet and in turn will give you more chance to make money online...


SEO – The single best method I have found for generating highly targeted traffic is using search engine optimization.  There are already a good number of people out there somewhere who are using the internet to do research about the information, products and services you offer on your website.   If you can figure out what phrases those people are typing into search engines, then you can get your site so that it ranks high for those phrases.

The great thing about SEO is that people will then discover your website on their own.  There is a funny thing about people who discover your website on their own.  When they do that, they enter your site with a more open mind than they otherwise might.   Think about it this way.

If you see one stranger recommending another stranger’s product, you will often times have an inherent suspicion about why that one person is recommending the other one.  You will wonder if they are friends or if the one person is the other person’s affiliate or something.   There is often this aura of suspicion.

When someone finds your site ranking high in the search results naturally, they aren’t going to enter your site with that suspicious tendency.  Instead they come there with an open mind.  That increases their trust level ever so slightly which can make the difference between a conversion or not.

The other great thing about SEO is the power of the long tail.   The more you study your traffic, the more you will come to realize that organic traffic from long tail searches tends to convert very well compared to anything else.

Referrals - The second best method of generating targeted traffic for your blog is going to be focusing on getting referrals.

For my sites, I want referrals no matter where they come from so long as they are positive referrals.  I want people to recommend my sites wherever they get together with their friends and colleagues.   I don’t care if it is on social media networks, in forums, on blogs, via email, over the telephone or face to face.  I like to encourage all forms of it.   There are ways you can do that.

One of the easiest ways is to ask for them.   If you give away a free tool or free report or free guide or free whatever to your audience, then be sure to ask people and remind people to tell their friends about it.    Another way you can encourage referrals is to add social media shortcuts to the bottom of each page on your site.  Then it is relatively painless for them to just click a Twitter or Facebook icon to share it.  The other way that you get more referrals is by really trying hard to give your audience what they are really looking for.  If your website truly hits the mark, you will get plenty of referrals.

SEO and Referrals are the two methods I rely on primarily for generating traffic for my sites.

Forums –   Suppose you run some kind of health blog that focuses specifically on losing weight through low-carb dieting.   There are some forums online that are dedicated specifically to low-carb dieters.  Your target audience is already there.   You could create an account on a few of those forums.  Use a handle (account username) that people would easily identify with your website.   Talk to the people on there and be as helpful as possible.  If any of the forums allow it, you should add a link into your signature as well as a crafty offer to try to get people to visit your website.   You could advertise a free recipe eBook with your ten favorite low carb dinners as an example.  That would get a lot of those people to come to your site. - See more at:


Video Traffic – Did you know that people use YouTube just like a search engine?  Along the same lines as writing ten articles about the ten most common questions in your niche, you could do the same thing with videos on YouTube.   Record a series of short videos where each video answers one of those questions.  Then publish them all on YouTube with a link in the description pointing back to your primary authority site.

There is a ton of traffic to be siphoned from YouTube.  The great thing about this method is that your videos can keep bringing you traffic for years to come.
