When you are new to the internet and how it works, it is easy to miss this very important key to driving traffic to your website or blog.  Most internet newbies will build a website or blog and think that if they just submit the site to the search engines that it will automatically attract traffic.  ZUnfortunately this is not the case.  And it is a hard lesson to learn when you are dissappointed by the lack of traffic. 

One way to increase the popularity of your website or blog is to have inbound links.  The more inbound links that you have from the millions of websites online the more popular you are and therefore the more traffice you will attract.  Some search engines will drop your website if there are no inbound links.  So how do you attract inbound links to your website?

You can write articles which is one of the easiest and more effective ways to get inbound links.  When you write articles on your keyword and put your web address in the resource box, you become more visible and attract more inbound links to your site.  Two article directories you can use are ezinearticles.com and goarticles.com.  there are several to choose from but these are two to get you started.

You can also get your website linked to other websites preferably with a higher ranking than you have.  If you have a blog macke sure you comment on other blogs especially in your niche and your website will get noticed.  If you have a website, it is advisable to to link any and all your pages to the home page so that link popularity is assigned to the subpages as well.

Getting Your Looker To Stay A Little Longer

I was doing some research and I found a very interesting article on suggestions for getting people who are lookers to stick when they go to your website.  In the article Only 15 Seconds To Get Your Website Seen there are several tips that I was not aware of while building my current sites. It is true that unless someone goes specifically to your site for a reason or purpose, they usually will jump and run.  In those few seconds before the click if you have not caught the attention of your looker, they are gone and may not return.  It is also interesting that Jaya brings to our attention that there are three types of internet lookers. When you combine a little for all of them it is amazing how much stickier your website becomes.  This then makes your website more profitable. Isn't that what we are all looking for?

Quality Content Not Price Oriented

I was reading in Seth Godin's blog today and saw a profound statement that made me stop and think.  Many times as we build our blogs and businesses we forget to give something worth paying for and worry about what people might pay.  If you have a quality product or information that is of value to a person then price is not always a factor.  Of course you don't want to over or under price what you are offering.  Just make sure the the value is there and everything else will take care of itself and the purchase will be there.
