To grow revenues and profits faster, you must increase website traffic.\u00a0But this is not always easy to do.<\/p>\n<p>Here are seven proven strategies to drive more traffic to your website.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Optimize your website for SEO<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s hard to overstate the importance of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crowdspring.com\/blog\/seo-design\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">optimizing your website for SEO<\/a>. Marketers could see an ROI (return on investment) of over <a href=\"https:\/\/firstpagesage.com\/seo-blog\/seo-roi-statistics-fc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">1,000%<\/a>, depending on the industry.<\/p>\n<p>And although <a href=\"https:\/\/www.internetlivestats.com\/google-search-statistics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">3.5 billion<\/a> Google searches occur every day, results on the second page of Google only have a click-through rate of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchenginejournal.com\/google-first-page-clicks\/374516\/#:~:text=For%20example%2C%20a%20result%20in,than%201%25%20for%20each%20position.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">less than 1%<\/a> for each position.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few first steps to take when optimizing your site for SEO:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Make sure you have content your customers want to read. One of the most critical factors in ranking for SEO is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crowdspring.com\/blog\/content-marketing-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">quality of your content<\/a>. If Google sees people click on your site and immediately leave, it will hurt your search rankings. Monitor your bounce rate and time on site in Google Analytics to determine if people find value in your website.<\/li>\n<li>Optimize your content with keywords: Keywords are words people search for online. You may have a great blog, but if your content doesn\u2019t contain the right keywords, people may be unable to find it. Using a tool like <a href=\"https:\/\/serpstat.com\/features\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Serpstat<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/nikolaroza.com\/semrush-vs-long-tail-pro\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Long Tail Pro or Semrush<\/a>, create a list of keywords you\u2019d like to rank for. Then, sprinkle these phrases throughout your product and service pages and blog.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.crowdspring.com\/blog\/content-marketing-small-business\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Update your content regularly<\/a>: Are there pages on your website you haven\u2019t updated in years? If so, it\u2019s probably hurting your SEO \u2014 or at least it\u2019s not helping. Content freshness is considered one of Google\u2019s ranking factors, making it essential to include regular content refreshes in your content marketing strategy. Update old blog posts with new data, reframe previous article topics to make them relevant to today\u2019s users, and update product and service pages to reflect your current offerings.<\/li>\n<li>Be patient. If you&#8217;re <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crowdspring.com\/how-to-start-business\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">starting a business<\/a> and don&#8217;t yet have a content strategy, it&#8217;ll take time to build credibility and enough content to drive meaningful traffic. This won&#8217;t happen in a few weeks or months. Most new companies find that SEO efforts take at least 12 months to generate traffic.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><div class=\"subscription-hero-snippet image-on-left\" style=\"background: #161C4A\"><div class=\"title centered\">Want a free brand review?<\/div><div class=\"main-content\"><div class=\"image-wrapper\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.crowdspring.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/09131004\/brand-identity-grader-blog-cta-hero.png\" alt=\"brand identity grader hero\"\/><\/div><div class=\"form-wrapper\"><div class=\"subtitle\">Answer 5 short questions and we will send a custom report with actionable insights and specific actions you can take to build a stronger brand.<\/div><div>\n<script>\nfunction submitForm_drip_form(oFormElement) {\n  var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();\n  xhr.onload = function() { \n    if (xhr.status == 200 || xhr.status == 202) {\n      var formEl = document.getElementById(\"drip_form\");\n      var doneEl = document.getElementById(\"done_drip_form\");\n      formEl.style = \"display: none\";\n      doneEl.style = \"display: block\";\n    } else {\n      alert(xhr.responseText);\n    }\n  }\n  var formData = new FormData(oFormElement);\n  grecaptcha.execute(\"6LcyQTUpAAAAAC5ZPtCYQzRWKR732_LmqInv9YSK\", { action: \"external_bumblebee_lead\" }).then((token) => {\n    formData.set(\"recaptcha_token\", token);\n    xhr.open(oFormElement.method, oFormElement.action, true);\n    xhr.setRequestHeader(\"x-frontendurl\", window.location.href);\n    xhr.send(formData);\n  });\n\n  return false;\n  }\n<\/script>\n<div id=\"done_drip_form\" class=\"done\">\n      <div class=\"success-title\">\n        <i class=\"fa fa-check-circle\"><\/i><br\/> We just emailed the info to you.\n      <\/div><\/div><form id=\"drip_form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.crowdspring.com\/api\/v1\/bb\/external_leads\/\" method=\"post\" onsubmit=\"return submitForm_drip_form(this);\">\n      <div class=\"form-group\">\n        <input type=\"email\" name=\"email\" class=\"form-control\" id=\"mce-EMAIL\" required=\"true\"\/>\n        <label html_for=\"mce-EMAIL\" class=\"form-label\">Email Address<\/label>\n      <\/div> \n      <div style=\"position: absolute; left: -5000px\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t<input type=\"text\" value=\"brand-identity-grader-landing-page\" tabindex=\"-1\" name=\"tags\" readonly=\"true\"\/>\n        <input type=\"text\" value=\"true\" tabindex=\"-1\" name=\"add_country_tier_suffix\" readonly=\"true\"\/>\n      <\/div><input type=\"submit\" value=\"I want a stronger brand!\" class=\"btn btn-primary\" \/><p class=\"notice\"> <\/form><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n<h2>2.

Start a blog<\/h2>\n<p>Starting a blog is also one of the best ways to drive traffic to your site. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hubspot.com\/marketing-statistics?_ga=2.90348124.739307702.1624649417-1809712947.1624649417&amp;hubs_post=blog.hubspot.com%2Fmarketing%2Fstate-of-content-marketing-infographic&amp;hubs_post-cta=three%20to%20five%20pieces%20of%20content\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">56% of marketers who leverage blogging say it&#8217;s effective<\/a>, and 10% say it generates the most significant return on investment of their marketing efforts.<\/p>\n<p>Not sure what to write about? Create blog content for all sales funnel stages, from upper-funnel awareness-building articles to lower-funnel conversion and post-sale content that helps customers use your product.<\/p>\n<p>Start with topics that cover the pain points and most frequently asked questions you get from potential and existing customers. Then use a <a href=\"https:\/\/narrato.io\/blog\/15-free-keyword-research-tools-to-boost-content-seo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">keyword tool<\/a> to incorporate terms people search for online to make your content easier to find.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Start a Podcast<\/h2>\n<p>If it feels like no one is reading your content, have your audience listen to it. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crowdspring.com\/blog\/how-to-start-a-podcast\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Starting a podcast<\/a> is a great way to increase your website traffic.<\/p>\n<p>A podcast is a great way to reach new audiences and draw attention to your website. By starting a podcast, you can connect with listeners who might not otherwise find your content. And the best part is, once you&#8217;ve got a few episodes, promoting your website on your podcast is easy.<\/p>\n<p>Plus, considering the availability of online <a href=\"https:\/\/podcastle.ai\/blog\/best-free-and-paid-podcast-editing-software\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">podcast creation tools<\/a>, podcasts are fun and easy to create.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Start getting backlinks to your site<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.impactplus.com\/blog\/seo-statistics#:~:text=91%25%20of%20all%20pages%20never,backlinks%20than%20those%20below%20them.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">55.24% of all pages<\/a> on the web do not have a single backlink. However, the top results on Google\u2019s first page have an average of 3.8 more backlinks than those below. If this tells you anything, it\u2019s how vital a link-building strategy is.<\/p>\n<p>This strategy is especially critical for success in your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crowdspring.com\/blog\/local-seo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">local SEO<\/a> efforts.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re unfamiliar with them, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crowdspring.com\/blog\/backlinks-seo-small-business\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">backlinks<\/a> are links to your site from someone else\u2019s website or blog. Three of the most popular ways to get backlinks to your site include joining directories, signing up for\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.helpareporter.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HARO<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/outreachmonks.com\/guest-posting-services\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">guest blogging<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>A simple and easy first step is to join relevant directories. Start by submitting your information to general directories like\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/yelp.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Yelp<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yellowpages.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Yellowpages<\/a>. You can also contact niche directories in your industry and local organizations such as your city chamber of commerce.<\/p>\n<p>HARO (which stands for \u201cHelp A Reporter Out\u201d) is a website that connects journalists with expert sources for writing news stories. It\u2019s also an excellent way for business leaders to secure media coverage and links to their websites. To become a source on HARO, sign up and check the daily emails. When you see a good fit, respond to that request. As you get featured in more articles, your backlinks will grow.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, submit guest blog articles to other sites. Identify relevant blogs in your niche, work with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vazoola.com\/guest-posting-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">guest post service<\/a>, and email some pitches to the editors. Many blog sites allow contributors to include a link to their website in their article or bio. This is an excellent tactic for gaining backlinks, but it will also help you build your credibility and audience.<\/p>\n<h2>6. Build your email list with an enticing freebie<\/h2>\n<p>Email marketing continues to be a potent tool for driving traffic to your website \u2014 and driving conversion.<\/p>\n<p>Before the COVID-19 crisis, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/statistics\/750858\/us-consumers-preferences-brand-contact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">61%<\/a> of consumers preferred to hear from businesses and organizations by email rather than through other channels. And now, with consumers more active on their digital devices than ever, the average\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.constantcontact.com\/email-open-rates-rising-what-are-marketers-doing-differently-during-covid-19\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">email open rate has even risen<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It all starts with growing your email list. As digital marketing guru <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amyporterfield.com\/214transcript\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amy Porterfield<\/a>\u00a0explains,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Your list is such an incredibly powerful resource as an online business owner, one that surpasses social media or any other efforts that you can make online.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>According to Porterfield, having <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crowdspring.com\/blog\/lead-magnets-conversions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">an effective lead magnet<\/a> or freebie is vital for any list-building endeavor. Here are seven types of lead magnets that Porterfield recommends:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Cheatsheet:<\/strong> &#8220;It\u2019s roughly defined as a series of pages that offers steps, examples, and lots of imagery to help illustrate a strategy.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Workbook:<\/strong> \u201cWith a workbook you\u2019re providing information as well as take-action pieces for your potential clients or students to actually take some time to get the ideas out of their head and onto paper.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>Guide:<\/strong> &#8220;A guide is more of a narrative where you can lead your potential customers through a story and then stack the value throughout.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>Video training or audio training freebie:<\/strong> \u201cWith this, you are allowing visitors to hear or watch a piece of your content. \u2026 [A]t this point they could be seeing you, which makes things a whole lot more personal. &#8220;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Challenge:<\/strong> &#8220;With a challenge you are challenging your audience to do something every day for seven to ten days.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>Quiz:<\/strong> &#8220;You\u2019re going to learn who your audience is and what they\u2019re all about. That is gold right there. For your community that is taking the quiz, they will learn about themselves. If you do the quiz right they will also get marching orders, so they know what to do with the information you\u2019re sharing with them.&#8221; Consider a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.convertflow.com\/blog\/product-recommendation-quiz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">product quiz<\/a> to highlight the key features of the products you&#8217;re selling.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Free course:<\/strong> &#8220;Think in terms of a mini training.&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>7. Get more active on social media<\/h2>\n<p>In this day and age, businesses can no longer afford to ignore social media. Recent research from <a href=\"https:\/\/sproutsocial.com\/insights\/importance-of-social-media-marketing-in-business\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sprout Social<\/a>\u00a0reveals that:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>55 percent of consumers learn about brands on social platforms<\/li>\n<li>78 percent will buy from a brand after a positive social media interaction<\/li>\n<li>91 percent of business leaders plan to boost their social media marketing efforts in the next three years<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So make sure you\u2019ve claimed your social media handles and use them consistently: Promote every blog post on social media. Repurpose useful snippets from your blog content and turn them into visually compelling images or infographics. Poll your followers and ask them engaging questions. Post <a href=\"https:\/\/digitaltriggers.io\/how-to-get-video-testimonials-from-customers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">video testimonials<\/a> that will resonate emotionally. Over time, you will see your numbers grow, and your social channels will become a valuable source of traffic to your website.<\/p>\n<div class=\"related-post-snippet\"><div class=\"intro\">TELL ME MORE!<\/div><h3 class=\"title\">The Ultimate Social Media Marketing Guide<\/h3><div class=\"related-post-content\"><\/p>\n<p>It can be intimidating for small business owners to navigate this vast online space.
