A Simple Guide To Gaining Web Traffic-Chispa MagazineBehind every great business is a great business website. But, how do you tell if a website is good or not? The simplest way to distinguish between good or bad is by the web traffic count. A site that reels in loads of visitors is an excellent website. Bearing that in mind, here’s a simple guide to gaining web traffic.

Social Media Marketing
One great way to gain web traffic is by using social media marketing. Get on sites like Twitter and start directing people to your company website. You can do this using many different methods; I’ll run through a couple of the easiest. The first couldn’t be simpler; you just put a link to your site in your Twitter bio. This way, whenever someone clicks on your profile, they’ll see the link. If a certain amount of people visit your profile a day, there’s a big chance some of them will click the link and go to your website. It puts you in a better position than if you didn’t have it there. The second thing you can do is post tweets directing people to your site. Use hashtags that are relevant to your business so people will find the tweet. Of course, don’t forget to post the link to your site in the tweet too. You can write blog posts on your site and share them via Twitter to get more traffic. I find this method highly effective and simple.

Responsive Web Design
Having responsive web design can put your business in a very strong place. As noted by SiteWired Web Solutions, Inc. it boosts your search ranking. Plus, it enables your site to be viewed on multiple devices, be it desktop or mobile. With Google’s new mobile search engine algorithm, you must have a mobile friendly website. If you don’t, you’ll appear low down on the search rankings. All of the sites that are mobile friendly would appear before yours. With responsive web design, you can have a website optimized for mobile devices. So, you don’t have to worry about being pushed further down the mobile search rankings. Plus, it makes your site look a lot better than it was before. When your website looks good, people are more inclined to stay on it for a longer time. They’re also more likely to keep going back to it, this increasing your web traffic.

PPC Marketing
Pay per click (PPC) marketing is a fine way of increasing web traffic. In simple terms, PPC can get you to the top of the search engine rankings. Use Google Adwords to bid on keywords and search terms. Win the auction and your site will appear in the sponsored links section at the top of the page. If you want to spend money to get your web traffic up, this is a great investment. Many companies have had big success using PPC marketing.
