Increasing Traffic by Links Part 1

As I said in my previous articles, creating a high content-theme based website is the best thing to start your own website. However, there are some other ways to increase your website’s traffic. Today, we will be discussing one, “Linking”. Before digging into the subject, I want to make it that building a link program is just a small part of the SE war of trillions of websites. It is just a fraction of the things that you still have to learn. But it will sure help you, your visitor, and the search engines if you will have an excellent link program.

Traffic as we know is the life blood of your website. And the number one secret of traffic building is by building a high content-theme based website. The problem however is the SE ranking. We have to win and be a part of those few who makes it to the top of the SE’s ranking. One of the best things to do is by links. We must remember however, that not all links will be beneficial to you.

Inbound links. This will increase your traffic. Just a common sense, let us say for example another related website linked to your website. When a visitor to this website saw your link and clicked on it, then you’ll earn a visitor. Not only that, when a website is linked to you, the search engine will recognize it as a form of a vote for your website. This means that someone is recommending you. This is why building an affiliate program is one of the best ways to create a link program. Your affiliates will be linking to your website if you have affiliate programs.

Not all websites have that many incoming links. This is a reality that we must recognize and overcome. There are some websites however managed to create a huge link program. It is by giving away free valuable services in exchange of links. Very wise move, isn’t it? But the thing is, you can have credibility if you have a valuable content in your website. If other website owners saw your web and believe that it will be valuable, then you might gain some incoming links too.

Getting More Traffic

There are several ways to gain more traffic aside from content. Today, I will be teaching you about submitting articles. I strongly suggest that you need to be familiar with these free features on the net. This can be a high way for your traffic.

You have your articles divided into sub topics. Now what you are going to do is to add some more words maybe around 100 more words per sub topic. It is not much to add for this highly profitable strategy for a beginner like you. Then visit some of best article directories on the net. I suggest that you begin with www.ezinearticles.com where you found this article.

Article directories like “Ezine Articles” gathers content from thousands of people around the world. They will not pay you anything but they will leave your article intact including your resource box where your email address, blog site url, and web site url is written. This is where you get your traffic. When there is someone who will reprint your article, they have to include your resource box. This means, more exposures to the net. More exposures means high probability of getting clicks, more clicks means more traffic, and more traffic means more probability of income.

Again, income is what you get if your visitors turned out to be customers. To make more customers, you will have to present your product in a way that is compelling and trust building. Making great content and truths about your products and exposing it to the whole world will do that for you. This is where article submission enters. Article submission will make you more credible and reliable.

In addition to exposure, you will also gain friends in submitting articles. If people will love your articles, some will write you or ask you something it. And correspondence can build friendships. The more friends you have, the higher your credibility will be. And not only that, they might recommend you in one way or another.

For first timers, Ezine Articles only allow 10 submissions for a time. But don’t worry, if they will like your writing skills, they will give you more than you can ever imagine. For now, try to explore the net. Here are some more Article directories where you can submit your articles:

Taking Few More Steps

We tackled about a high content-theme based website. The question now is, how in the world that I am going to build a “high content-theme based website”? Maybe you are beginning to think about the tools that you are going to use now. Well, not yet. Don’t think of them as for now. We are still in the first step. I will be assisting you all through out the way, don’t worry.

For now, let’s practice. But let us make this practice a time-efficient and cost-efficient one. Meaning, we will practice with the intention of using your content that you will produce for your “real website” later on. In other words, let us use what is free on the net. By the way, you can find money with free offerings on the net. It will not be much, but there is money in it. Start a BLOG.

There are lots of websites that offers free blog account. As you can see, I am using “Blogger”. You can also use “Word Press”. I’m not so familiar how to use the Word Press. Some writers prefer Word Press for its diversity of applications. However, I believe Blogger is more “user-friendly”. So for starter, we will use blogger. But before that, let’s make first your theme so that you can start generating your content.

The best way to start writing is to start thinking about your hobbies, or about your jobs, or anything that you have been doing ever since and that you love to do. The thing is, it will be easier for you to write about something that you are an expert on. And these things can be your job, hobbies, and other recreational activities. It can be about sports, fishing, golfing, being an accountant, being a manager etc. I believe that each person has its own interest. Right? Now you are beginning to smile. Yes, why not turn your expertise into a web business?

Cling cling cling!!! See, I guess you are now thinking that you know lots of things about your hobby. Why not start listing down all those things that you can think of about your chosen expertise? Now you have a theme to start with. Focus on that idea. If it’s about basketball, talk about shooting, dribbling, strategy, passing, etc. Don’t talk about putting bait on the hook, it’s for fishing not basketball.

You have now a list of topics and ideas for your blog. The next step is to consult the search engines. There are lots of tools that you can use for free in looking for high targeted words in the net. The best that I can recommend is the Search It . It’s a one stop highly useful program that can help you in building your site. It’s a user-friendly program, so you will not have a hard time studying on how to use it. For some instructions in using this powerful tool, you can go to http://wsmuniversity.blogspot.com and download Free Affiliate Masters Course E-book.

The first thing that we will do is to generate keywords for your chosen theme. The search engines look at the keywords that you have on your page so we must hit the right keywords. Use the Search It. In the first tab, go to “Brainstorming”, then on the second tab, go to “Google Adwords”. On the third tab, type in your main theme for your blog. Since we started with “Basketball”, type basketball and follow further instructions to see the results. Take note or list the keywords generated. Your content will revolve around those keywords.

Now you have the theme and you have keywords. It will be easier for you now to write your content. Make your content revolve around the keywords you searched without taking out the main theme of your blog. Be sure that your content makes sense so that your visitors will find it helpful.

Benefits of a High Content – Theme Based Website

A high content-theme based website can give lots of benefits. First, it can probably give you a high ranking with SE’s. I say probably because again there are lots of factors involve. But your content will really make a difference in your ranking. You will learn all other ways in gaining a rank later. Let’s focus first on your content. Your content is the gold mine for visitors. Better to enrich your page with high content theme words.

Secondly, a high content – theme based website can give you a reputation and integrity. Well, obviously your visitor will love you because you deliver them the information that they need. And there could be a high probability that they will be coming back for your friendly website. You can even ask some of these visitors for a positive feedback for your website. Why not if they really love your site?

Third, a high content –theme based website can become itself an entertaining website for your visitors. If your visitors see lots of information on your website, they will love it. Not only that they will love it, they will be coming back for it, and much more, they will be recommending it. And this means… TRAFFIC!!! Your website shouldn’t be a website if it is without traffic. Traffic is the main gateway for your income in the net. Without traffic, there will be no income, no conversion rates. Just like economics, “traffic is directly proportional with the conversion rates.” The higher the conversion rate, the higher is your income.

Fourth, not only your visitor will love you, search engines will love you as well. As I said the higher the information you give, the higher the possibility that you have a higher ranking. After all, search engines were made to serve that purpose, to give you valuable information. So, every body is a winner when you have a high content –theme based website.

To narrow what I said, the first step in building a website is to think of a high content-theme based website. At the beginning of your venture in website making or even blogging, always focus on your content rather than the traffic. All the others will come next after you decide on what kind of theme or content you are going to use for your web site. Your high content-theme based website will make you a winner, will make your visitor a winner, and will make search engines a winner.

How People Use the Web

People use the web mainly for the search of information. Of course there are some who use it for gaming and recreation but still, most of them still looks for information that are related with the games they are playing. And this is the best way to start your web site, building a highly informative, high content-theme based website. A high content-based web site is always the winner in the SE ranking wars. Whoever provides the most of the information searched through the net, obviously gets, the most of the traffic. The more traffic, the more conversion rates your website can derive.

Websites doesn’t need to be too fancy with graphics. Yes, it can add to its beauty, but learn that people don’t look for fine graphics when they come to your website unless your website is all about graphics. They look for information. If your website gives the information they need especially in your home page, then they will surely explore your website. Believe me. I became a student myself and that’s how I use the net and the two giant search engines, Google and Yahoo.

Try to think of this, let’s say you have a website that talks about golfing in your home page. But some of your pages talks about fishing and basketball? Isn’t it out of topic? Yes it is… And because of that, there is a tendency that people will not find you in the net even if they will be using the search engine. The thing is, there are probably hundreds, if not thousands of other websites that talks about golfing. And why do you think that the search engine gives you a high ranking for your site where only half of it talks about golf?

Search engines works with algorithms. There are lots of factors how they rank websites. But this I can assure you, one of their main categories in ranking is the content of the website. They’ll look at your website if it contains a lot of information about a certain topic. Let’s take an example. I am looking for information about making a website. I’ll then go to Google or Yahoo and then type in their search box, “making a website”, or “how to make a web site”.

The search engine then will try to rank the most related information to my search. Ordinary people like me will only look for the top 20 - or maybe can extend to 30 if information is badly needed – and will despise all the other websites with low ranking and consider them as irrelevant to the search and then enter another keyword for another search.
