5 Quick Tips To Get Website Traffic Fast!

Online, one of the most significant keys to success is getting website traffic. The more visitors you have, the better your sales and profits.

Presumably you have a niche and you know your keywords, and regularly conduct keyword research to stay on top of what’s popular. Based on those assumptions here are five quick and easy tips to get website traffic fast!

Tip #1 Make sure you’re actually tagging your keywords.

Do you spend a lot of time optimizing your content and then neglect to tag them on your webpage? 

Tags are where search engines look and if there are no tags they’ll pass right by your web pages. 

Here’s a quick brief on tags.

There are a number of tag types including,

* Title tags. Title tags are quite possibly the most important place to situate your keywords. Here’s what they look like - <title>Primary keyword phrase here. </title>

Your title tag is where you place your primary keyword or keyword phrase. The sentence will describe your business in less than 90 characters.

* Header Tags. Header tags are next in order of importance to search engines. They’re ranked in order of importance and look like this - <h1>Primary and/or Secondary keywords here</h1>

The “1” designates this header as the most important header on the page.

* Meta Tags. Meta tags provide the small descriptive text found underneath the title tag on the search engine results page. Like title tags these should be kept brief, informative and up to date.

* Alt Tags. Alt tags are used to provide a text description of a graphic. Each graphic on your site should have a description and an alt tag.

Tip #2 Add content to your site daily

Content is essential for traffic and a top search engine ranking. Content is what search engine spiders look for and index - without it there’s nothing to index or rank. Give visitors and search engines a reason to visit and index your site. Make a commitment to provide daily, optimized content and your traffic will soar.

Tip #3 Procure valuable and relevant incoming links

The more websites which link to your webpages the more valuable search engines perceive you to be, though not all links are created equal.

Search engines give more leverage to links from sites which are popular and credible and from sites which are relevant to your website topic.

There are different types of links.

- A direct link looks like a basic website address, for example, www.yourwebsite.com

- A text link occurs when the webpage address is embedded in the text. Readers simply click on the link and are redirected to a new website page.

- If the link is to an internal web page, for example an article published on a website, rather than the home page, it is called a “deep link.”

You can encourage linking to your website by:

* Adding content to your site. 

* Submitting to article directories. 

* Publishing press releases. 

* Blogging and participating in social networking forums, chat rooms and social networking sites.

Tip #4 Be Social!

Now more than ever before, internet marketing is about building a community. Whether you offer a forum on your website or you participate in social networking sites, social networking is a valuable traffic generating tactic. Sites like Facebook and Twitter can be powerful tools for generating links and traffic to your site – create a profile and then post comments, links to your site and ideas which generate conversation.

Get involved - many chat rooms and forums are industry specific, find those which cater to your industry, and begin participating. Speak to and connect with a highly targeted audience.

Tip #5 Advertise for more exposure and traffic

Advertising, when handled strategically, can be used to promote your content and products or services. PPC advertising is often the tool of choice because you control the advertising budget on a daily basis and have the tools to test and track your advertising efforts. Once you’ve honed your PPC ads the return on investment can be phenomenal in terms of traffic and purchases.

For maximum results, create a traffic and SEO strategy. Outline your plan and your goals and then take the necessary action. Take advantage of these five traffic and search engine tips to boost your business.

How to Make More Money with Aweber by Selling Advertising

When it comes to your mailing list and the names of those people that have signed up, you need to protect it. It’s not always easy to get someone on your list so once you do you want to make sure you provide them with valuable content and promotions that fit the topic of what your list is about.  Because your list is so important, if you’re going to sell advertising in your Aweber newsletter you need to be very choosy about what advertisements you promote. So, let’s talk about some ways that you can make money selling ads in your newsletter. 

How to Sell Newsletter Ads 

Send Your First Email Newsletter Today - AWeber Communications

It’s already been mentioned, but it’s worth mentioning again – make sure you only sell and promote relevant ads that are related to your newsletter audience and their interests. You worked hard to get those subscribers; you don’t want to lose them by selling ad space to promote something irrelevant. 

So, how do you sell newsletter ads? One of the ‘easiest’ ways is to make a list of those people in your niche who have products or services relevant to your list. Once you’ve created a list of potential advertisers you can reach out to them and explain what running an advertisement in your newsletter means. Let them know that their ad will be seen by X  (how many ever people are on your list) number of people, it will help get their brand/products/services seen in a new market they haven’t targeted yet, how responsive your list is, etc.

There are also services available that make it easy to arrange this type of transaction. One that has a good reputation is SafeSwap.com. List owners can buy and sell “solo-mailings” with a guarantee of a certain number of clicks. Buyers choose the list owner to buy from based on the type of list they have, and their reputation (SafeSwap uses a rating system for both buyers and sellers) for providing good results. As a seller, you have the right to refuse any ads that don’t match your market or list.

Another thing to keep in mind when you’re trying to sell newsletter ad space is that potential customers are going to probably check out your newsletter first. You’ll want to make sure that you’re providing high quality content so that the potential buyer sees that and realizes your newsletter is the perfect opportunity to represent them and their business. 

What to do once You’ve Sold Ad Space 

It’s always a good idea that once you’ve sold newsletter ad space to have a conversation (via the phone or Skype or email – whatever works best for you and your customer) with the customer so that you can find out what their goal is for the ad. Are they looking to get more subscribers to their list? Do they want to sell 10 of their $97 product?  

You and your customer need to have realistic expectations of what will come out of the newsletter ad. If your list is only 300 subscribers but they want to get 500 new people to sign up for their list that obviously isn’t a realistic expectation. 

Once you and your customer have all the details figured out and the ad is ready to go it’s a good idea to set up the newsletter (with their ad) and send a test email to you and them before it gets sent to the entire list. This gives not only your customer but also you a chance to look over the newsletter ad and make sure it looks okay. If it’s just a text ad make sure there are no spelling or grammar errors. If there’s a link in the text ad, make sure the link works. If it’s a banner ad, make sure it’s the right size and that the image links to the correct site.

While running Aweber newsletter ads won’t make you rich overnight it’s a fairly simple way to make more money with your newsletter.    

Increase Your Sales Up To 500% by Tracking Visitors' Footsteps

When you think of tracking, you probably think of tracking the response to your various ads and promotions to determine which of them are profitable and which are just a big waste of time and money. This is all very important -- in fact it is one of the most important keys to your success.

But there's a lot more to tracking than that. You see, your tracking efforts should not stop once a visitor responds to one of your ads or promotions. In fact, no matter how a person stumbles across your site it's just as important to track their footsteps as it is to track how they found you.

==> Tracking - How It's REALLY Done!

That's right, I'm talking about tracking what people do once they arrive at your website. Here's a simple example ... Say a person arrives at your homepage, reads a paragraph or two, and then leaves. A few minutes later another visitor arrives and does the same thing. Ten minutes later another visitor shows up, he or she pokes around for a few minutes but they too ultimately leave without exploring much.

You probably don't realize it, but chances are this is going on lots more than you think. For one reason or another, the majority of people visiting your site are probably leaving without doing whatever it is that you want them to do.

As Internet marketers we tend to think that everyone who arrives at our website is going to read every word on every page. Then they will download our free e-book, subscribe to our e-zine, purchase our product, or do whatever else it is we want them to do. After all, who in their right mind is not going to be interested in what we're offering. Right?

Unfortunately that's just not the case ... some people just won't be interested in what you are offering at your site. And there's nothing you can do about that. Even if you are attracting "targeted" visitors to your website, not every dog owner is going to buy your book on dog training.

==> Why You're REALLY Losing Money...

The real problem however, is when people who ARE interested in what you're doing don't take the action you want them to take once they arrive at your website. Maybe they got lost, maybe they got confused, maybe they were about to order your product but bailed out at the last minute when they saw your order form, or maybe there was some other problem.

Trust me, you are losing money right now for no reason other than the fact that your website is not as good as it could be. And this applies to every single site on the web. Even ours, and yes, even sites like Microsoft.com and Yahoo.com.

A website is never "finished" and that's why savvy marketers are constantly tweaking their websites to try to increase the response to their various offerings. Tweaking headlines, re-writing sales copy, removing graphics, adding graphics, changing the navigational system, etc. ... these are all things that most webmasters are doing practically every single day in order to convert visitors into more revenue.

==> Don't Do It Blindly, Let Me Give You The Secret...

But the problem is that most people do this blindly, basing changes on their opinions of how it may affect the behavior of visitors once they arrive at their website. And let me tell you right now, this is NOT how to do it.

Just because you think one headline is better than another doesn't mean that your visitors will respond better to it. In fact, it usually works out exactly the opposite -- the headline you think is best will probably generate LESS of a response than the one you were using before!

Say you have a simple three-page direct sales website. On the homepage you have a headline, some introductory sales copy, and a link to the next page which contains your main salesletter. Your main salesletter really "sells" your product or service, and then links to your order form.

After awhile you notice that you are not getting nearly as many orders as you think you should be getting based on the amount of targeted traffic your site receives. The problem could be with your homepage, your salesletter, your order form, or a combination of any of these. How in the world are you going to figure out where the problem lies?

==> No Guess Work Needed...

You could do what most people do -- take a guess -- and base your changes on that. But chances are you will not guess the right answer, and your sales and profits will still be slim. What's worse is that you may end up making things worse, in which case your sales and profits would actually decrease!

Guessing is no way to run a business. It's what most people do, and it's one of the big reasons that most people are not making much money. Basing your marketing decisions on your own opinions, or guesswork, is a sure-fire way to go broke.

Now, on the other hand, if you had a proper tracking system in place it would be relatively easy to solve your problem. Starting with the homepage, you could focus on tweaking one page at a time until your sales were where they ought to be.

Perhaps your tracking system tells you that for every 100 visitors to your homepage, only 5 of them are clicking the link that takes them to your main salesletter. That is a serious problem! But since you have an exact baseline figure to work with, it wouldn't be too hard to improve upon.

Simply tweak your headline, copy, etc. and then reset your tracking system to see what the new results are. If after your changes more than 5 out of every 100 visitors is going to your salesletter, then your changes helped and you can repeat the process again. What if this time only 1 out of 100 visitors clicks to your salesletter? Simple! Undo the changes and start over at square one.

Maybe after doing this for a week you're now seeing that for every 100 visitors, 42 are now clicking to your salesletter. That's much better, and you are probably happy with that. Great! Move on to the salesletter and repeat the process.

If only 5 out of 100 people that reads your salesletter actually clicks to the order form, you need to tweak your salesletter. It may take a little while, but as long as you are tracking everything you will know what is working and what is not. Finally, work on your order form the same way.

==> How To Increase Your Profits By At Least 100%-500%!

When all is said and done, the average site will probably be able to increase their overall profits by at least 100-500%. Just think what it would do to your bottom line if you could increase your profits 100-500% with your existing traffic!

The above example is really just the tip of the iceberg. With a good tracking system you can track and improve the response to almost anything this way -- downloads of your ebook, ezine subscriptions, software downloads, a general lead generation system, surveys, etc. etc.

==> Here's The Bottom Line

Listen, we made all of the usual mistakes until finally we learned the hard way. We decided to do a large advertising campaign that cost us a lot money. In the end, we still made a small profit, but we sure did lose A LOT of customers and potential sales ... not to mention we wasted valuable time.

So, we hired an expensive programmer to create AdMinder ... and now you can use it too. For as little as 67 cents a day AdMinder will track all your various ads and promotions, as well as allow you to track visitors' footsteps and actions once they reach your website. No more guessing!

The bottom line is that it's pretty silly to spend a lot of time, effort, and money advertising your commercial website if it does not do a good job of converting visitors into revenue in one way or another ... wouldn't you agree?

Obviously I'm a little biased, but the absolute truth of the matter is that no other tracking system can do everything that AdMinder does at such a low cost.

Using Facebook Integration to Grow Your Aweber List and Make More Money

According to a recent Yahoo Finance article, Facebook has over one billion people using the site every month. That’s a lot of people and a great place to network and find people in your niche, etc. Even if you’re not a fan of Facebook you can see that integrating it with Aweber can be a great way to make more money.

Before we start talking about integrating Aweber and Facebook, it might be a good idea to use Facebook to find out who is really interested in you and your business. The easiest way to do this by making some status updates about your newsletter and see who signs up. You can also purchase sidebar advertisements very inexpensively to test responses to different offers.

Okay, let’s move on and talk about three different ways you can integrate Facebook with Aweber and make more money.

1. Autoshare – this is by far the quickest and easiest way to integrate Facebook into your email marketing. You do this right in Aweber and it’s as simple as checking ‘enable social media’ when you set up a new newsletter in your Aweber account. When you set up social media sharing you can add your Facebook account and then Aweber will automatically post any new emails you send out to your timeline.

The reason this is a good idea is because you want to continually be building your list. As mentioned above, there are so many people on Facebook that you should be networking with new people all the time. If you’re automatically posting newsletters to your Facebook page the new people will see those and be encouraged to sign up if the content interests them.  

2. Adding a Web Form to Facebook – another way you can integrate Facebook and Aweber is by adding a web form from Aweber directly to your page. Even if you choose to use autoshare,  it’s still a good idea to do this, too. What’s going to happen is that it’s actually going to add a special tab to your page where the form will be so people can sign up right there. Giving people the option to sign up for your newsletter right on your page makes it easier for them and they’re more than likely to do it because they don’t have to click here or click there and do this and do that – it’s all right there with easy access.

3. Facebook Connect – this option is a bit different than the two mentioned above in that this is done on your own website with an app, not on your Facebook page or within Aweber. Using this app (Facebook Connect) once again makes signing up for your newsletter easy for people. And let’s face it, with today’s short attention spans, you want to make things easy and fast! This app  automatically fills in a reader’s name and email if he or she is logged in to Facebook. All they have to do is click the “submit” button.

These three ways to integrate Facebook with Aweber will help you make more money in the long run because you’re building your list and that’s how you not only connect and show your expertise to your subscribers, but it’s how you make sales on affiliate products or your own products and services.

Using Follow up Autoresponder Messages to Keep the Money Rolling in

Did you know that it takes approximately 7 interactions with a person before they buy from you? Because of this, it’s important that you capture every name and email address you can when they visit your site and follow up with them quickly. In order to capture this information you need to have something enticing (a free report, eBook, etc) they want and for which they’re willing to give you their name and/or email address.

But just capturing names and emails is not enough. You need to stay in contact with them, and that’s where your autoresponder comes in. An autoresponder is a series of emails that go out at specified intervals. For example, your first email generally goes out immediately, then you might send one the following day, and again in three days, and again in a week. This keeps readers interested and “trains” them to watch for and read your emails.

That’s important, because unless they’re actually consuming your content, you aren’t likely to make any sales, and that’s why you have an Aweber or GetResponse account in the first place, right?

So how can your autoresponder help pay for itself? There are lots of ways, including:

1. Provide a useful, but incomplete ecourse. For example, if you own a membership site that teaches knitting through video and how-to articles, your autoresponder might include 7 simple cast on techniques. In each lesson, make sure you let them know that other, more detailed information can be found in your membership. This gets new knitters started, but if they want to really learn to knit, they’ll need to join your site.

2. Affiliate Promotions – while you don’t want every single message you send out to be a promotion to buy something, several of your follow up emails will probably include an affiliate promotion of some sort. It’s only natural, if you use and love product or service that will make the lives of your customers easier, to want to tell them about it. If you can promote something like webhosting or a monthly membership these are great because you’ll earn a recurring income off just one follow up email.

3. Write Reviews – this goes along with affiliate promotions but is another great way to utilize autoresponder follow up messages to keep the money rolling in. More than likely you’re already using software or web hosting or purchased a product or service so these would be the easiest ways to write a review. Once you write the review (and make sure to give your honest opinion about the product/service), set it up in your autoresponder and make sure to include your affiliate link.

4. Promote Your Own Products or Services – of course one of the main reasons you want people on your list is so you can show them that you’re the expert in your niche so don’t forget to also promote yourself and your own products or services!

5. Advertising – be careful with this one. To sell advertising space in your newsletter it’s really important that you make sure the ad is relevant to your niche. For example if your list is about dog training it wouldn’t make sense to run an ad about knitting. You’ll also want to periodically check on the advertising you use. Remember, your autoresponder will continue to go out whenever someone new signs up for your list, so you need to make sure any advertisements are still relevant (and current) from time to time.

What you’re doing when you follow these tips for using autoresponder follow up messages is setting up a passive income stream. You do the work once and passively bring in income for as long as people continue to subscribe to your list.
