Getting Traffic For Your Website

Getting traffic for your website is hard. In this article I'm going to reveal one little secret that will get tons of traffic for your website.

It's not going to happen overnight with this method, it'll take a few weeks. But once the traffic starts coming in it won't stop.

This is not a system that will bring traffic to affiliate links or to sales pages. This is about getting traffic to a website with content.

Traffic for your website with content

The content on your website doesn't have to be amazing or even great, it just has to inform people. It has to be able to give the readers what they're looking for.

If you can give people the information they're seeking they will consider you a reliable source and the traffic to your website will be continuous.

So what's the secret already! It's using Google News.

Google News is an incredibly effective way to get more traffic to websites. Here's how it works.

Increase traffic to website using Google News

Website Traffic & Google

This is going to require a few hours of your time every week. But that's what we do isn't it? We spend time building our website which in turn builds our income.

The key word in work at home is 'work'.

What you want to do is create a category on your website or blog and call it 'your industry news'.

Spend time putting together a news article every day on topics related to your website.

For example, if your website is about chickens, you'll want to create a category called chicken news.

In that category you'll have to post news related to chickens on a daily basis.

It doesn't have to be a long winded article, most news articles aren't incredibly lengthy. After reading this blog post do some research on news about your topic and you'll see what I mean.

The easiest way to stay informed about your topic is to create a Google Alert.

Once that's set-up every time something new related to your alert is published on the Internet you'll receive an email about it giving you the opportunity to be one of the first people to be informed.

Will Write For Traffic

Your news articles should be packed with the keywords related to your industry.

And ideally, they should have pictures and videos.

You can go to YouTube and find videos on every topic on the planet.

When you find one that you like embed the video into your post.

This step isn't necessary but it'll help get you more traffic for your website as Google tends to rank web pages with pictures and videos a little higher.

After a couple of weeks of creating these news articles and posting them on your website contact Google News and tell them you'd like to be included in Google News as a news source.

Google works with individual publishers as well as with the big time news sources. And if you have Google AdSense ads on your news articles you'll be accepted faster.

Not that it's necessary to have ads but it's something you should do anyway as almost everyone is placing the ads on their sites.

How is this going to help you get traffic for your website?

Traffic Light

Google News is used by people searching for news more than any other news search engine.

And if you publish news on a daily basis related to your industry people will find your web pages when they search Google News for your keywords.

Most Internet marketers aren't doing this because they fear they're not good news sources or news writers. But think about this for a few seconds.

What constitutes news?

A news article is nothing more than someone writing about something that happened.

If you can read a few articles related to your niche and then write about what's going on and who's doing what in your industry then you can write a good news article.

Of course it has to be in your own words. You don't want to plagiarize other people's work. There's a way around that though.

At least once a week I'll publish an article on this blog that was written by someone else. I just give them the credit and include a link back to their website.

You can do the same thing.  Just don't do it every day.

Get in the habit of writing your own stuff. It's not as hard as it seems and once you get used to writing news articles it'll get easier and easier.

How to Get Traffic to Your Blog Quickly

Traffic Headed Your Way

How to Get Traffic

One of the key factors in getting traffic to your blog is to get out there and let people know you exist.

In this article I will discuss some of the ways that I've been able to generate traffic to this blog.

I will talk about the top five websites that send traffic to this blog and what you can do to generate traffic to yours.

If you look at the screen shot below you will see the traffic stats for this blog over the last two months.

Traffic Statistics for How To Internet Marketing and Video Training

Let's talk about the top five traffic generating websites for this blog one at a time.

1. Facebook
2. HubPages
3. YouSayToo
4. Google
5. Pingy

Facebook Traffic

Facebook Traffic

As you can see, Facebook is at the top of the chart with 318 visitors.

Keep in mind that this blog is about two months old and from what I've been reading online these traffic statistics are very good for a new blog.

I just read about a blog that's two years old and he gets about 800 visitors a month.

If you've been struggling to get traffic to your blog begin using some of the strategies listed here.

Every time you create a new post make sure to share it on your Facebook
page.  Join Networked Blogs, which is integrated into Facebook and allows you to easily join with a few clicks.

Once you join Networked Blogs go to the discussion boards and begin interacting with other bloggers in your niche.

HubPages Traffic

The second highest traffic referring site to this blog is HubPages with 146 visitors. I've posted articles and video tutorials on HubPages since I created this blog.

HubPages is a very good way to get targeted traffic to your blog.  And it's free to join.

HubPages Traffic Stats

The way to get traffic from HubPages is to insert your RSS feed into every article you create.

When people finish reading your article they will click on one of the links on your RSS feed to go to your blog.

Of course, you have to have quality content.

No one is going to click on your links if you have a spun article that is hard to read or doesn't make sense.

It's also possible to make money with HubPages because it is a revenue sharing website.

I haven't made any money yet with the site because I don't have enough articles. I use it mainly as a traffic generating mechanism.

And it's working.

HubPages allows you to post videos as well.  One of the things that I've been doing lately is going to YouTube and collecting videos on a certain topic and creating a HubPage about it and calling it a video series or video tutorial.

I've seen my traffic increase about 30% from HubPages since I started doing this
kind of posting.

A word of caution about HubPages - they will not let you use duplicate content. You cannot have an article on HubPages and have the same article on your blog. I've tried it, it doesn't work.

YouSayToo Visitors

YouSayToo has a lot of traffic.  I joined about three weeks ago and it's already

YouSayToo Visitors

generated 110 visitors to this blog.

The great thing about YouSayToo is that you don't have to create new content.

The site uses the same content on your blog and posts it on their site.   It uses the same technology as RSS feeds so that as soon as you create a new blog post it shows up on YouSayToo.

It is also a revenue sharing website. If you have an AdSense account it is easy to integrate it into your YouSayToo account.

The good thing about YouSayToo?

The traffic from that site loves clicking on the AdSense links.  Since I've started using the site I've noticed an increase of revenue in my AdSense account.

Google Organic Traffic

The quickest way to get organic traffic from Google is to begin using H1 and H2 tags in every post.

It's pain in the butt and takes more time but it is worth the effort for the long term.

Google Traffic

Also use the title tag.  Since I started doing that a few weeks ago I've noticed an increase in organic traffic.

To put it into perspective, before I began using the tags my organic search results were less than 5% of the traffic to this blog.

That number is now more than 7%.

 

Pingy Visitors

The last item on the list is Pingywebedition.somee.com.  That's just a pinging service that I use and it is very effective.

Pingy has a spot on top of its web page that lists the latest blog to use the service.

So when someone goes to the site to ping their blog they'll see your URL listed.

What you want to do is ping every blog post.  You only need to do it once.  I don't recommend using more than one pinging service as it will be considered spamming by the search engines.

Most of the pinging services ping to the same sources anyway so you only need to ping your post with one service.
