Reading e-books and courses on how to get more traffic to your website never helped anybody. The reason lies in the fact that every author has a unique way to explain his or her methods. A lot of authors use a simplified version of the method that they teach, which makes the readers believe as if getting traffic to their website was the simplest thing in the world.

That being said, I hope you now understand why ebooks and courses make the user even more confused then they were before reading it. I personally prefer to keep things simple. Here are 3 tested and tried ways in order to get traffic to your website:

1. Optimize for long-tail keywords: Do not start by optimizing for generic 2 word keywords at the start. If your website is new, try to ease into the search engine rankings by optimizing for long-tail keywords. Make sure your keyword phrase is mentioned at the start of your title tag, in the heading of your main content and in the title tags.

It should also be mentioned that long-tail keywords bring in more targeted traffic, which is easier to convert. Generic keywords take a lot more time to rank high for and provide relatively un-targeted traffic.

2. Build links to your inner pages: People seem to think that it is the homepage that they should build links to. I think that at times it is more rewarding to build links to your inner pages using the same keyword phrase used in the title tag. This will increase your relevance in the search engines and consequently your rankings. This technique is especially recommended when you are selling separate products or services on your inner pages.

It is always a good idea to keep up to 40%50% of your incoming links distributed among your inner pages. This makes your link building look more natural and also allows your inner pages to rank high for specific keywords.

3. Make use of Public Relations: If you have a unique product or service to offer, make sure you send out a paid press release. Doing this might get the media to start talking about you. You are also guaranteed a good quality backlink from a high PR website. Needless to say, your press release is shown to millions of people on news websites. This single method of getting traffic can be more than enough to make tons of money with your online business.

Press releases are one of the main methods used by some companies to get more continual business. These companies send out a paid press release every week, which adds to their traffic. The press release is focused on a new product or service that they have started offering or anything related to the company which is considered news-worthy. Press releases can add a lot of value to your business if they are done correctly.
