How do you raise the number of visitors? |
How can i raise the number of people that come to my site for free or little money. Please help me because im getting almost no visitors. If you could help me or even give me a review on my site i will be really happy. my site is http://offygames.com Hi Dave, Your site concept is great, and the reason you are not getting traffic is not terminal. Essentially your site is not keyword optimized. By this I mean (taking your homepage as an example), very few people will be searching for 'offygames' when they are searching Google or Yahoo for games to play. So you end up being 1000+ in the rankings and your site never sees the light of day. The way to fix this is to find out what keywords people are searching for on the SE's when they are looking for games. To do this go to http://freekeywords.wordtracker.com/... and type in the word games. The results are the daily search demand for the keyword 'games" and all it's variants. For each keyword go to Google and type in intitle:"your-keyword" including the inverted commas, but with spaces between your keyword phrase. When Google returns the results, at the top of the page it will say something like Results 1 - 10 of 2,000,000 for free games. If the number of results is less than wordtrackers demand, then you you should consider writing a page for that keyword, and then use on-page SEO techniques to make sure the SE's fall in love with your site. That will take between 1 - 6 months depending on how competitive the keyword is. You also need at least 30 pages for the SE's to take you seriously, and you need to add or update a page at least once a week. I can write on this for hours, however I have done so already, and all the info you need to make your site a screaming success is in the source box below. Best of luck, I'm going to show my kids the site when they get home tonight. That's viral marketing, so I'll leave that to another time. Source(s): http://www.diy-website-marketing-strateg... Hello, your web site page rank is 0 other games web sites have page rank 5 and 6 you can start by using PPC Pay per click (PPC) Pay per click (PPC) is an advertising model used on websites, advertising networks, and search engines where advertisers only pay when a user actually clicks on an ad to visit the advertiser's website. When a user types a keyword query matching the advertiser's keyword list, the advertiser's ad may appear on the search results page. These ads are called "sponsored links" or "sponsored ads" and appear next to, and sometimes, above the natural or organic results on the page. The advertiser pays only when the user clicks on the ad. Pay per click advertising is a search engine marketing technique. To make the most of this medium the advertiser needs to "steal eye balls". The advertiser needs to refer traffic to his/her web site. The best way to do this is by assigning the Pay per click (PPC) to another web site. For example, The Google ads on this web site http://www.drivingschools-a-to-z.com/... are "stealing" the quality traffic that this web site is getting. Every click they get is a quality click, since the "eye balls" are already focused on "Driving Schools". Find a web site that has quality traffic, and place your ads there. http://cmsbuffet.com/pay-per-click.php... Getting traffic is a combination of a lot of things. The key to success is to create great content that visitors want to use, search engines will love and other websites will naturally link to. Of course, it's easier said than done. You can use pay per click advertising in the search engines to reach audiences looking for your products. You can use Google Adwords http://www.google.com/adwords or Yahoo http://searchmarketing.yahoo.com... Here are some shoestring marketing ideas that can help you get the visitors you need at the least cost possible: 1. Create the best content you can with the best products you can possibly offer. Your content is your best advertisement - if visitors love your content, then they will go back and spread the word to others. 2. Make it easy for users to recommend your site. Viral marketing is very important -- and easy to tap on the Web. But give your users the tools. Get a Recommend this Site script from websites such as cgiscripts.com and similar directories of scripts. Some even go as far as giving incentives to those who recommend the site to their friends. If only 10 people go to your site, but these 10 people invite 10 more - that's additional traffic that you get for FREE! Recommend Site Scripts (various) http://php.resourceindex.com/complete_sc...

Rank well in the search engines (organic search results, not the pay per click). SEs can be a big source of traffic. The key is to create the best content in your niche. If you have good content, other websites will gladly link to you and offer your site as a resource to their audience. Check the on-page factors and be sure to get linked from authority sites in your topic area. If you are going to read only one piece on search engine optimization, I suggest you read Brett Tabke of WebmasterWorld.com's "Successful Site in 12 Months with Google Alone: 26 steps to 15k a day." http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum3/201... 4. Send out press releases. While outfits charge as much as $650 per release, there are free press release submission places on the Web. Press releases allow you to (a) attract media attention; (b) get more back links to your website without sending each website an email request; and (c) get more visibility especially if your press release gets in Google News or Yahoo News. http://www.prleap.com/sign_up.html... http://i-newswire.com/ http://www.24-7pressrelease.com/... http://www.pressbox.co.uk/cgi-bin/links/... http://www.pr.com/press-releases... http://www.prfree.com/ http://www.clickpress.com/releases/index... http://www.theopenpress.com/ http://www.przoom.com/ http://www.prweb.com http://www.newswiretoday.com/ http://www.free-press-release.com/... 5. Submit articles. Write articles and submit them to websites accepting author submissions. You get exposure for your business; establishes you as an authority in your field, and allows you to get backlinks for your website. If 50 websites publish your article and it contains a link back to your website, then you easily get 50 links from a single article. The more links you have, the greater your chances for increasing your search engine rankings. Here is a comprehensive list of where to submit your articles http://answers.yahoo.com/question/;_ylt=... 6. Post a link to your site for free where it is allowed (always read the Terms of Use). Examples are: Craigslist http://www.craigslist.com Google Base http://base.google.com Classifieds for Free http://www.classifiedsforfree.com/......
