Content Rich: Writing Your Way to Wealth on the Web

There is a wide variety of strategies you can adapt to drive traffic to your website, from advertising to affiliate marketing. However, most of these techniques require some form of payment. However, there are ways to promote your website and increase your web traffic without spending anything. Writing articles is one of the best web site promotion strategies you can use, and they can be very effective. How, you may ask, can writing articles help improve your web traffic?

Here are the top six ways in which it can help explode your website traffic.

1.Larger potential audience

When you write good articles, it is a disservice to you and your website not to share them with other people. You can post your articles in your website or you can submit them to other sites such as e-zines and online publishers. By submitting your articles to these sites, you give exposure not only to your ideas but also to your website and thus increasing website traffic. Simply include a link back to your site or include your information in the resource box. With this, you get exposure and free advertising as well. Submit your articles to popular e-zines and take advantage of their popularity. Other sites who find your article relevant may also link back to you. And therefore, you increase your link popularity which in the internet world is one of the most important strategies for more website traffic and a high webpage ranking. Remember that most people are looking for information online and by filling this need with your quality article, you may reap the benefit of more exposure and thus higher web traffic.

2.Free Advertising

By submitting your articles to other websites presents an opportunity to advertise your website without paying fees and increase your website traffic. Although you should avoid marketing language in your articles and make it informative and useful to your readers, you can always include your site’s link in the resource box. In addition, by making your article relevant and helpful to your readers, you are making a good impression for your website, which could ultimately lead to a visit to your website and hopefully a purchase. Good quality content in an article is far better and more effective than a few lines of ad space. You have a very special opportunity to presell your product or service to your prospective customer.

3.Gain High Search Engine Ranking

Another easy and free method of gaining website traffic is to create a new web page for your article in your website. Make sure you optimize your newly written article to make it search engine friendly. Use top-ranked keywords and Meta tags that can give your website a high search engine ranking. As soon as you upload your new webpage to your server, search engines will spider through it and you can gain an increase in search engine ranking. Remember that search engine optimized content is a very effective strategy to gain a high ranking in search results.Relevance and quality is still the most important things to consider when writing articles and it will be doubly useful to your site if you make these articles search-engine optimized.

4.Increase Link Popularity

Instead of looking for other sites who would want to establish reciprocal links with your website, you can simply submit an article to other sites. It is essential to include a link to your website in your resource box. When these websites pick up and publishes your article, you automatically get a link partner. Try to get as many link partners as you can. Link popularity is one of the factors used by search engines in determining search engine rankings.Higher search engine rankings will most definately lead to higher website traffic for you. Make your article especially useful and appealing, so that more websites will be encouraged to publish it.

5.Establish a Good Impression and Reputation

By writing excellent, original and relevant articles, you not only give your site exposure and increase traffic, you are also creating a good impression on your prospects. Encourage more people to visit your site and do business with you by establishing an impressive reputation through your articles. Be seen as an expert in the field and your will ultimately gain more customers eager to do business with you.

6.Enhance your credibility through references and testimonies

Certainly, your articles are going to receive feedbacks and testimonies when you publish them in e-zines and free article sites. Record these positive feedbacks and comments and use them as promotional material in your website or in any of your advertising efforts. Your credibility will be greatly enhanced by these feedbacks, as it will create a good impression on your prospects as well as your existing customers. The two facets of credibilty and trust could be the two most crucial things you need to not only attract new customers but also to keep your existing customers buying from you. Original, relevant, useful and pertinent articles are important tools you should utilize to improve and explode the amount of traffic that visits your website and ultimately becomes your customers.

The hardest part of making a successful website isn’t “making” it–you can hire someone to do the design and coding.

This is not a book on how to code your website, but a book on how to determine what pages you should have on your website and how best to write them. The book is written in p… More >>

Do the Web Write: Writing for and Marketing Your Website

One of the first things to consider is the purpose of your writing. Are you trying to be informative, or is the main reason to get people to check out your link and buy a product?

The medium you are writing for will also make a big difference. In an eBook, for example, you’ve got much more space to expand on your ideas, and people will expect more detail than in, say, a blog post.

Once you’ve got that figured out you should then think about your audience. For example, do they already know a lot about the subject, or are they new to it? Are they young or old? Of course there is a good chance that your audience will vary quite widely within these ranges, but it definitely helps to think about it.

Here are some top tips for effective writing:

1. Be short and concise. Most people hate waffle, and you can really start to lose your audience. 

2. Avoid needless ‘techy’ jargon. Again, get straight to the point, and do not use a long word when a short one will do!

3. Write as you speak. People like to be entertained as they read, so avoid making your writing seem too formal. I also like to add in smilies or emoticons as these definitely lighten the mood. 

4. Break your text into short paragraphs. It’s easier to read and makes the page seem more spacious. Large chunks or blocks of text can really put people off from even reading what you’ve written.

5. Add headings. It breaks up the text and makes it easier for people to find the bits they are looking for.

6. Ask questions. This is a great way of connecting with your readers because it makes them think. Start a paragraph with a question, and then start answering it, or get people to think more about the issues around the question.

Of course, you need to adapt these to suit your medium, but the fact is that writing really doesn’t have to be difficult. Follow these top writing tips and in my opinion you won’t go far wrong.
