How To Increase Visitor Traffic Hits #1

There are some considerable ways to increase visitors to your blog/websites. In this posting, I would like to share with you some simple ways to increase unique visitors to your blog/websites. Here are the ways to increase visitor traffic hits:

1. Choose the Right Blog Software (or Custom Build)
The right blog CMS makes a big difference. If you want to set yourself apart, I recommend creating a custom blog solution – one that can be completely customized to your users. In most cases,WordPress, Blogger, MovableType or Typepad will suffice, but building from scratch allows you to be very creative with functionality and formatting. The best CMS is something that’s easy for the writer(s) to use and brings together the features that allow the blog to flourish. Think about how you want comments, archiving, sub-pages, categorization, multiple feeds and user accounts to operate in order to narrow down your choices. OpenSourceCMS is a very good tool to help you select a software if you go that route.

2. Buy your own blog domain

People will usually use free services, but as people said, free isn’t mostly good for your business. So buy your own domain. You can find cheap domain at http://www.godaddy.com

3. Optimize your site (SEO)
Win on the search engines when people search for keyword phrases related to your products or services. The more SEO you can get, the more people will come to your blog.

4. DO NOT USE ROBOTS FOR POSTING

This is important because google do not like robot that do automatically posting. You should get your own idea and write unique article instead.

5. Get List In Search Engines

Submit your article to big Search Engines, especially google, yahoo, Digg, etc. This will really boost your traffic.

6. Host Your Blog Directly on Your Domain
Hosting your blog on a different domain from your primary site is one of the worst mistakes you can make. A blog on your domain can attract links, attention, publicity, trust and search rankings – by keeping the blog on a separate domain, you shoot yourself in the foot. From worst to best, your options are – Hosted (on a solution like Blogspot or Wordpress), on a unique domain (at least you can 301 it in the future), on a subdomain (these can be treated as unique from the primary domain by the engines) and as a sub-section of the primary domain (in a subfolder or page – this is the best solution).

6. Get published
Write articles for publication on other websites. The author profile will link to your site. The article will show that you’re an expert. So, be sure to write frequently on your blog.

7. Do some blog-walking

If you are tired and do not have any idea to write article, go surfing on other people’s blog. You can post comment there and if you are lucky, you may get backlinks (but only from DO FOLLOW blogs). And you may find some inspiration by walking on other people’s blog.
