Great Website Traffic is Free and Easy With the Right Keywords

 

Great Website Traffic is Easy and Free   To get great website traffic, many people will pay big bucks to Google, social media sites and other online resources. This will all work; but the truth is that getting free traffic to your website is much easier than you might think. Success can come down to something as simple as using accurate keywords.  

 

  • Choose relevant keywords that best describe your content. For example, this post is all about website traffic. Choosing "website traffic" as one of my keywords tells search engines what my post is about. In turn, Google will give my post better placement.

 

  • Restate Your Keywords - Your keywords should be used several times throughout your post or page. However, don't stuff or overuse your post or page with your keywords thinking it will give you better website traffic. Google will see right through you and give you a thumbs down. It should always sound like a natural conversation.

 

  • If You Have WordPress - Self-hosted WordPress is my all time favorite platform. They have tons of useful plugins that help with website traffic. My favorite is Yoast SEO. It tutors and analyzes your content during the optimization process, helping you to get the best title, focus keyword, meta words and description for website traffic (search engine optimization). You will get a red, yellow or green light depending upon how well your post or page is optimized. When you get a green light, you know it's highly optimized.

Translation = More Free Traffic to Your Website

 

 Paying for placement has its place and can be a valuable option. Thankfully, it's not the only option. Optimization can be tricky but by following a few simple rules, your posts and pages can rank very high and garner the traffic you need.

Hello Pamela, these are great tips.  Thanks for sharing them with us.  Is it also true that if you "italicize" and "bold face" the key words and phrases, it also helps with search engine visibility?  Just curious.

Amy Palian - From everything I've read, bolding and italicizing text does not make a difference in SEO.  Here's an article that might be interesting to you.  http://webmasters.stackexchange.com/questions/76606/does-bold-text-really-improve-your-search-engine-rankings

Thank you for your post.  I need to spend more time interacting on my social media pages.  I finally have a calendar in place so that I can post something every day.

Hi Diana L Faulkner - Another way to interact is to set up a social media hub like HootSuite and set aside some time each week to create automatic postings to your social media.  Personal interaction is also important.  Sounds like you're on the right track.
