Why isn’t anyone coming to my website?

Far too often someone will have a website created for themselves or their business and automatically think they are about to make a lot of money. Unfortunately they may end up disappointed and questioning why their website isn’t making the sales quota they wanted to achieve. Very rarely can someone build a website and immediately see a traffic flow coming in without first building the site's background. What we mean by this is taking care of some essential components that will get your site in front of your customers and attain a higher ranking on Google.

Search Engine Optimization
Search Engine Optimization, also known as SEO is the backbone to how your site is shown when someone searches for like services, products, etc. The keywords and phrases being used throughout your site can be optimized to help improve your rank on the search engines. Most people searching the web will not go past the first page of search results. By optimizing your website you increase the chance of your site appearing on the first page if not the very top. This will in turn bring more traffic to your site.

PPC
Are you using pay-per-click campaigns? If you are not, you should. PPC ads are a great way to get your site advertised on popular platforms such as Facebook and Twitter. This kind of advertising can be set up fairly easily and become a fantastic way to invest in your website and it's traffic. Pay-per-click ads can even help you get your site listed on the first page of search engines results by having the option of paying your way to the top spot. Many large companies invest in buying clicks to a landing page through using social media. Landing pages can be helpful by providing the opportunity to market a specific product or service in the exchange of attaining information about these viewers, such as an email or phone number. Later this information becomes a great tool to further market to these prospects and encourage them to view the website.

Social Media
Integrating social media links and share buttons on your website can be another way to increase the amount of users visiting your site. Almost everyone uses social media in one way or another. Building your social media audience can be a great way to add extra interactions of people going to and from what you post on the website. Social media can also be a great outlet for more traffic without costing a penny.

Blogging
If you are the owner of a company who has a website, but feels like it is lacking interesting content a blog might be the way to go. This can turn your informational and mundane content into significant pieces of writing that compliments what your company is all about. Blogs also add more content to your site which can boost your SEO score when Google checks out your site. Posting about related and interesting subjects to go along with your brand can be a great way to draw people back to your website. These blog postings can easily be shared onto your social media, further grabbing the user's attention.

Street Advertising
No matter the category of business you are under, whether you are web based or not street advertising can be yet another way to get your brand out their and familiarised among the public. The more someone sees your name the more comfortable they will feel about discussing an inquiry they may have. This type of conventional advertising can be added to everything from business cards to promotional t-shirts to large billboards.
