Getting Website Traffic – Know Where Your Clients Come From

If you are thinking about starting an online business, the best way of getting website traffic is to make sure that all your marketing articles and your website are optimized with the correct keywords that searchers are using to look for what they want. You will have a head start over your competition if you know how to use keywords to your advantage. The first step of course is to use a really, really good keyword tool. As soon as you learn to use keywords effectively, you will be able to get your website ranked high on the search engine results page, increase on line traffic and make lots of money.

If you are new to all this then you may get a little confused with all the jargon. But in learning how to find good keywords does not mean that search engine results will bring in millions of traffic. All this means is that the keyword selected is used a lot and there is a lot of competition for it. This keyword will not get you the traffic you need because everyone and their brother is using it. You need to find keywords with a low competition.

You need targeted keywords that are specific to your product or service. Search engines like this and will rank you higher on the page if you find these keywords. A higher ranking means more people see your website and that means more business. The internet has become increasingly more competitive and every advantage you can find is worth its weight in gold.

The next thing to find is a keyword with low competition is the search number. A higher search number is good. This means that people are using this keyword in their searches. There are numbers to go by to help you in your keyword hunt. Look for keywords that have 1500 searches per month or more and below 20,000 competition. If you find a keyword that falls under these parameters hold on tight to it because you may have just found yourself the golden egg.

Save them to your computer by opening up a Notepad file. The ones you find will then be at the ready for you to use when you plug them into your website.

Your search may take you far and wide and it may take some time to locate that perfect keyword that no one else is using but when you find it, it is like finding a golden nugget and you are the only on that knows about it. Just think what this kind of a keyword can do for your business.

Remember when I said that the keywords you find should be targeted to your product or service? Well, we can go one step further with that and start talking about long-tailed keywords. Long tailed keywords are keywords that describe exactly what searchers are looking for. They are called long-tailed keywords because they are more than one or two words in length and will help you increase on line traffic to your website.

Re: Who Did You Learn Most From and Why? - Hi Martin, You missed out on the most essential community that helps you grow - Your Clients. Well, I believe that my Initial Clients have been the ones who have given me the moments of 'aha' in my business. They have stood by me even when I was a starter and that has helped me shape and build my stand. They have helped me grow as an entrepreneur, learn to have loads of patience and make the most of what comes across. They have also helped me to strengthen me as a person. btw, personally speaking, my Grandfather always kept me on track and lent me emotional support when I was down in any matter - be it business or otherwise.
Re: What are your May Goals? - Thanks Evan! I just changed one of my business goals from setting up a video site on Traffic-Geyser to: "Set up a newsletter email series (let's say 10 messages) on Get Response..." I reviewed Traffic Geyser in the latest episode of "David's Den" on my blog (see sig file), included an excellent video review of Traffic Geyser by John Detlif and decided against taking that particular project any further. Still lots to get done!
