How to drive traffic to your website and build a successful business
Introduction
In the world of online network marketing you have to survive, think of yourself as a small fish in a big ocean.
Don’t trust search engines too much, just because it sounds too easy, remember that the big ones will have the advantage that they have a lot of money, therefore they will use big media.
Financially you cannot compete with them, so you have to find a solution to survive.
You need a good strategy to get noticed online and believe me, it doesn’t happen by sheer luck.
I’ve read on various forums where people are saying oh this guy is very lucky, I have to disagree here, because luck has nothing to do with it.
Maybe in some cases someone is lucky in the sense that they used a good technique without even knowing that they are using it, we can call that luck YES!
But technically speaking it’s not luck.
Let’s look at the strategy in the order in which it should be applied.

good domain name
Good website content
good optimization
Use of search engines
good titles
good blog content
automatic responses
good articles

good domain names
Many people have their sites up and running but have little or no traffic, sometimes it’s lack of knowledge and experience.
The reason is that some conditions have not been met, there are many things to do to activate the traffic, but we all have to keep in mind that the traffic accumulates and does not happen overnight.
The first and foremost thing that some people don’t seem to pay much attention to is the “domain name” and it is relevant to your business.
I must admit that when I started I did the exact same thing, but I have learned over the years that domain name relevancy is crucial when it comes to search engines.
I’ll give you some examples, say if you are selling DVDs and would like to drive traffic to your website, you need something in cheap DVD regions, home DVD, online DVD, online DVD store, etc. ..
That way search engines are more likely to notice your website, but this is not the only thing, some other things need to be added and synced.
Good website content
What is good web content? Well it means that you need to fill your website with content that is relevant to your business, and what your customers would like to know and what they are most likely to be looking for, the more information you can give them the better it is, even the search engines will crawl and they will crawl good original content.
good optimization
Search engine optimization, also known as SEO, is a very important and significant technique, the keywords, meta tags and titles of your web pages are crucial.
You need to do some research, what keywords your competitors are using, to rank and index their websites in search engines like Google, Yahoo, MSN etc.
But you shouldn’t use the most popular keywords, because the more people use the same keywords, the higher the competition.
You don’t want that, you have to search for the keywords that are used less to get some traffic directed towards you, try and use tools like this, this is a great free tool, it will suggest you which keywords you should and shouldn’t use.
Remember the more used keywords, the more competition you will face.

Use of search engines
Most of the marketers use PPC pay per click which is a very powerful technology to drive traffic and can be expensive at the same time, you need to understand how it works first.
If you open an account with a search engine like Google, you will use a PPC called AdWord, but there is no guarantee that your ad will show at all.
As I mentioned earlier, the big boys have an advantage here: they pay a lot of money to get their ads indexed and rank their websites on the first 3-4 pages of Google.
So what chance do you have when you pay $100 for your ads or campaign?
You can use other popular and cheaper search engines like 7search where you have more chance to get noticed.

One thing to remember and very important, you are a small fish in a big ocean and you have to find a way to survive.
You should also know that there are two types of online sellers
- The ones that will try to sell you their product at any cost, and they couldn’t care less if you succeed or not, all they care about is taking your money and moving on.
- The other guy is the one who would go out of his way for you, help you as much as he could, why? He’s a good guy and he’s been there, he loves to help people, or he just wants to keep a good image and knows that word of mouth is a very powerful tool.
So by keeping him happy and helping him, you’ll eventually get the word out for him.
good titles
Good titles are a known fact that they attract visitors and search engines love them.
If you put a good title, people will be interested in reading more and learning more because the title looks attractive, of course it must be followed by good content.
No matter what you’re writing about, as long as you provide good information to your readers, an article, a web page, a newsletter, an email, the headline is the first thing your prospect will see.
So it’s always good practice to keep that in mind, and the more you do it, the better you’ll get at it.
good blog content
Blogging is the most effective way to spread your articles and ideas, and to link to as many websites and directories as possible.
On the net today the more blogs you frequent the better, always remember that quality content is essential.
You can even have your own blog if you have a hosting account or server you can download and use your own blog instead. You can use the forums, all mediums are good to get noticed and basically sell your knowledge and experience.
You will be amazed at how hungry people are for information, no matter what niche or topic you provide information on, there is always someone who needs your information or who would benefit from your own expertise.
auto responders
Whether you know what an autoresponder is or not, one thing is for sure: the best way to generate what we call quality leads, leads.
I’m going to explain why autoresponders are vital to your success. One of the main autoresponders that I will mention here is the following.
Please see the link below
And just click on the link mentioned above, you will be redirected to the website of the autoresponder.
Autoresponders will allow you to build your opt-in list and generate leads and prospects.
You really need to sign up for an autoresponder, you don’t have to use this, but you must have an autoresponder account.
That way you can create your own team, your own system, program, stay in touch with your prospects, etc. They are a great tool.
Automated responses are really essential. With some autoresponders, you can even purchase what we call joint signup, which means potential customers will be contacted on your behalf to sign up for your newsletter or subscription list.
good items
A good article is primarily an article that people need, it is an article that is full of information that people can use and reuse, it should provide your readers with links, resources, ideas on how to save money on building their businesses. We all know that when you start building a business, it requires spending a substantial amount of money, especially if you don’t know where to shop.
Sometimes we can get things that are free and in some places and end up paying a lot of money for them in others!
And that is why it is so important to write good articles, that you can draw from your own experience, that can help people make good decisions.
By providing good links, free resources, etc., and doing this, your articles will eventually become popular, and for the most part readers will read them over and over again, especially
A good word spreads quickly.
So the bottom line is to be truthful and honest with your readers, otherwise sooner or later it will come back and bite you.
relationship
Relationship is probably one of the most important aspects, if not the most important, of all the things I’ve mentioned so far, because building a good relationship with your readers, prospects, or customers is vital to the survival of your business.
Do not treat people like numbers or statistics, show them that you really care and that you are here to help them in whatever may arise.
Keep in touch with them, find out if they need help, how they are doing, etc…
Finding out what your needs are will allow you to better shape your business.
And a good business always takes time to take off, don’t believe all these supposed “gurus” selling you the real secret that will make you rich in a few days or hours, there is no such thing.
Always try to make some improvement, because remember the golden rule, there is always room for improvement, no matter how perfect the system seems to you.
And by building a good relationship with your prospects, you will help spread the word, and that is a priceless tool, recommendation is the best tool there is! Because people tend to trust people they know.
Personally, I believe that if you follow these steps in the correct order, you will be successful, and please avoid all the so-called “gurus” who claim to have the miracle solution to get rich in a few clicks of the mouse. It is not true. !
As I said before, it takes time to build a good business, and if you are prepared to put in the effort and make some investment, you will be successful, it is only a matter of time before you have to be patient and move on.
Remember one thing you can learn from some people, but you must develop your own system.
For example, my system is not guaranteed to work for everyone, it might work for some and not others.
So you will invent your own way of doing things, your own originality will be your trademark.
I know that sometimes you may think that it is almost impossible, but believe me, in the end you will achieve it!
I wish all readers great success.
