When it comes to blogging traffic is the most important goal one can achieve. Without traffic you won't have an audience you're trying to pass information to and you won't be able to earn money either via ads or sponsored post. So you see how traffic is vital in the blogging industry.
If you are a successful Blogger right now you no doubt might have had difficulty driving traffic to your blog when you started initially. First traffic isn't always easy to be honest and it requires hard work and patience otherwise you might just give up trying. If you're new to blogging and currently struggling to improve your traffic just know that you're not alone. Every Website today that generates millions of traffic per month once had none! So don't be ashamed of your low or no visitors to your blog.
There are two main ways you can improve your traffic today, either organic or inorganic. Well, organic is simply the natural way of driving traffic to your blog while inorganic is the artificial or manual way of driving traffic. We are going to talk about these two ways today and how to drive in huge traffic to your blog on daily basis.
How To Drive Huge Traffic To Your Blog (Organic Way)
SEO. A lot of times you probably have heard this response when you ask some experienced Blogger how he gets traffic. What really is SEO. The full meaning of SEO means search engine optimization. This has everything to do with optimizing your search appearances on search engines. In other words, appearing more often on search engines and thus driving huge traffic to your blog. SEO is not a one-way strategy but consists of many which we will talk about in this article.
1. Optimized Contents Check
Your contents are sure ways you could easily rank on search engines like Google. Optimizing your contents could refer to placing keywords accurately. Knowing how you organize your keywords will help bring your points out. When search engines like Google sees how valuable your contents are they'll be eager to rank it to the top.2. Domain Authority Check
Your website's domain authority also plays an important role in helping your website rank on search engines. Domain authority doesn't matter wether you are using a free host or domain extension like blogspot. For the fact that it's a domain then you can get a backlink from a website that has higher domain authority and thus increase your DA. I talked about earlier in one of the articles in this blog on how backlink is achieved. You can either achieve it manually or you hire a professional SEO expert to get it done for you. There's no standard charges but you'll rather negotiate with him/her.3. Social Media
Social media like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram are one of those great ways of driving traffic to your blog. No matter the niche that you find yourself in you can generate traffic from these media if you have a good targeted audience. You could create a Facebook page for your business and run ads to target good audience in the Facebook community. You could do the same on Twitter and Instagram i mentioned earlier.Even without promotion you could still get enough clicks from your Facebook friends/followers, that's if your contents relates to them.
4. Forums
You could get traffic from discussion forums. An example such forum is Nairaland. Nairaland happens to be the most popular forums in Nigeria. In this forum thousands of discussions take place daily. There are more than two million members from all over the world who take part in several discussions on Nairaland. That means that you could simply find a section there that relates to your niche and thus drive traffic to your blog.There are three ways you could get traffic from Nairaland discussion forum, namely: General posting, Offering solutions and Advertisment. Note that before you could participate as a member on Nairaland you must first of all register for an account using your preferred username, email address and password. So now let's talk about how you can implement three ways Nairaland traffic i already mentioned.
General Posting : As a member you are free to post articles on the forum. But you must be follow their rules for posting otherwise your contents could be removed at anytime for violation. So how do you drive traffic from general posting? You first create a topic, write the title, write the contents, add photos if applicable and then publish your content. You must write your content in a very strategic way, how? Instead of giving out full details of your contents simply pause halfway and leave a link (your website link for traffic) for those reading your articles to read more via your website. Assuming it was a viral content then majority of those reading won't hesitate to click your website to read the full content. After all they have nothing to loose.
Offering Solutions : What online solutions could you offer to people? If you love offering solutions when needed imagine doing so in return for traffics. As long as a forum discussion is concerned there would always be people asking questions and thus seeking for answers. You could search for topics in forums that you are conversant with and see how you could offer help to those asking questions based on that subject or topic. In turn your answer could generate traffic to your blog. But how?
When you supply answers to questions being asked give a short and simple answer, you don't necessarily need to spill out everything at once. After the short answer follows link to your website that gives further explanations to your supplied answers. If the person that asked the question is satisfied with your short, simple and easy to understand answer in the forum discussion then he'll be more eager to learn more by clicking through your website.
Advertisement : In forums like Nairaland mentioned earlier you could place ads too. But this method isn't free. But if you can afford it then it's one of the best ways to call people attention to your blog. Set up an email subscribe form so they could constantly receive notifications each time you make a new blog post. Otherwise some may forget your website address having come to know it through advertisment.
Conclusions
As you can see there are several ways you could increase traffic on your website. You might you some of these strategy we discussed or all of it - it depends on what you want.
