You have created your own product that has been proven to have great
demand, you have a salesletter that has a sky-high conversion rate, but
all that would be futile and you will earn nothing if you don't have a
single soul passing by your website since you will have no one to sell
to! You might be a total beginner and therefore do not have a massive
mailing list to sell to, and your website is on the 103th page of
search engine results pages. We can change all that with a few
tried-and-tested traffic generation techniques.
First and foremost, let me make it clear to you that search engine
optimization is not the only way to gain massive amounts of traffic!
You see, search engine result pages are in a sense just web pages -
similar to regular websites around the web. It is only so lucrative to
have your website listed on the top of search engine results because
many people use the search engine to search for information and arrive
on the search engine results page. Hence, loads of people see your
site's link and you attract loads of traffic.
The effect would have been exactly the same if your website is
mentioned in a website with very high traffic. For example, imagine
what would happen if your website was mentioned on the front page of
Yahoo's website! Your website will receive so much visitors your
bandwidth might go over the limit. So, the trick is to get other
high-traffic websites in your niche to link to your website. To do
this, you must give them very strong reasons to link to you - maybe
it's this very thought-provoking article you've posted on your site,
maybe it's the ingenious solution to this lifelong problem everyone has
had for all their lives. In short, give people amazing reasons or value
to earn a link from them.
Alternatively, you may link to a certain high-traffic website that's
related to yours and ask for a link back. This technique is called
reciprocal linking and is a very common technique for gaining links.
However, before you even ask for the link, check your own website and
ask yourself if you would be proud to recommend such a site to your
readers, and whether it will provide useful information to your
readers. In short, make sure your website has its own value and not
just an empty shell devised to attract traffic!
