How to increase web traffic

I'm really excited to have you here with me sharing in these e-courses (How to increase web traffic). But, I owe you an apology, I asked you to trust me and that's not fair, I have to earn your trust, and I think I will get it.

Before we start, let me ask you:

• Do you thought if you built a website... Visitors would come?
• You thought if you built more content they would come back?
• You thought if you worked hard on that newsletter/ezine/e-course they would sign up?
• You thought if they came and read your stuff... they would buy?

Sorry, this is not true!!

You know what's really frustrating? I thought actions produce results! They do.

So how do you like your results? I think you are not happy with your website right now.

I know that cause I was like you, a small business owner, owns a website, manages my own business by myself (1-10 employees) and I have been in business for 3+ years.

I have a dream to grow up my business, creating my brand, having customers call my office to make orders, sales increase every year, and so on….

But, this was not the case, I have been struggling found new customers, sales take too long to close..... Etc.

I tried to use my website as a sales tool, I built my website.. But!!!

• There are not enough visitors.
• Even visitors who come to my website don’t convert into customers.
• I tried to use yahoo groups, AdSense, forums posting, blogs, search engine optimization, articles marketing ………etc.
• I found these methods are very time consuming and not giving the required results.

So, I paid for a company that claim they will increase my site traffic and conversion rate.

But still suffer low traffic /conversion rate!!

I was almost giving up, until I read an article about

The Right Way

How to Legally Steal Your Competitors Success

It is very simple idea saying that:. If you want to succeed , do like successful do….

If we take the previous statement to apply in website marketing: If you want your website to be in the 1st page of Google and get more traffic, make your website like websites ALERADY in the 1st page of Google… Sound simple… right?

NO

It is not that simple, you have to :

1- Determine WHO is your competitors 1st, and in the online world, you may consider a lot of websites as competitors.

2- Analyze your competitors website .

3- Optimize your website in the same way as your competitors .

What I did

After I read that article, I started to apply this strategy, I spent several hours every week analyzing my competitors websites, check what keywords they use, how they use it, website structure, how many pages/ website, how they promote it, do they use adsense or not, how they get back-links…..

I studied my competitors websites….and I was really amazed… you will not believe how valuable information you can get by doing this, and how it can help you focus your effort in the right direction to promote your website.. Right and fast.

What I Learned

During my learning curve, my website start to get more traffic, from 80 visitors/ day up to 1100 visitors/day in 2 years (just from search engine).

My conversion rate have been raised up to 28%. I was really happy , and also learn a lot about online marketing and how it is a marathon , you don’t need to jump start at 1st, but if you keep doing the right activity, you will succeed.

During these 2 years, I got a lot of emails from my visitors asking me help them promoting their websites, although my website in that time was about management, but they keep asking me .

I was busy, so I apologized for them as I didn’t have time to develop a good product/service to help them. After I sold my old website to one of my partners, I thought that I can develop a new website who teach people how they can promote their websites as I did.
