    Offer Traffic-Driving Incentives


    (Page 1 of 4 )

    You’ve got a great-looking site that’s well-designed and filled with bright graphics. You’ve got pages that are rich in quality content, highly optimized words meant to tempt the major search engines and major traffic. You have comments and forums, easy navigation and even a search bar. You’ve got so much on your site…what more could you possibly need? …How about more visitors?

    You do a lot of work and commit a lot of time to the task of pulling more traffic to your pages. You wrack your mind for good ideas and stretch the limit of your creativity to invent them, spend money to buy entertaining content, search high and low for attractive graphics and images to include on your site. There’s no question that you’re doing your part to tempt plenty of traffic to your site.

    Is there a way you can start to share this burden with some of your traffic, instead of shouldering it all alone? Learn how to offer traffic-driving incentives that put your visitors to work for you, because you shouldn’t have to do all the work.

    Get Them Involved

    Traffic is the all-important goal of every single site on the Web, even those sites (like search engines) which seem to be highly dedicated to driving traffic in other directions. You put a lot of effort into attracting visitors, so you know how it works. When you have visitors, they help bring in more visitors. Word gets around, and people talk about their favorite sites. A time-honored marketing tradition, word-of-mouth is strongly compelling even on the Web. Through traffic-driving incentives, you can take the idea of word-of-mouth advertising even further.


    You do your part by giving them quality content and fun features, items you hope they’ll talk about so that more traffic will follow the visitors who enjoy your pages. But when you offer traffic-driving incentives specifically to increase your numbers, you’re taking a much more active approach to getting your visitors involved.
