can reach to many people even millions and billions of people but first you
need to create a user friendly website so that each and every person that will
visit to your website will certainly face a good experience. But remember this
essential thing that you need to create it simple. If your website is a bit
crafty you will never attain people's attention. For keeping things here are
some worthy points you need to keep it in your mind:
- Firstly choose two plain fonts
- Build a clear and simple navigation bar, and keep the same on every page (this will
- help your visitors to re-visit the product page which they want to without pressing
- back).
- Include an offer so that you can grab e-mail addresses.

But I am going to go through the process of three easiest and the most adoptable ways to drive traffic in your website. Here we go:
- Become active in social media. Millions/billions of people are using social media channels and I must tell you that you think that you are creating a top class content and you just wait for the people to automatically come to your content then you are certainly very wrong in your approach. You can use your social media channels to drive traffic to your website by promoting your content. In this current scenario Facebook and Instagram are one of the most used social media channels over the globe so you have a greater chance to boost traffic in your website
- As in the previous step we just covered collecting emails. Email marketing plays a vital role in driving traffic to your website. There are so many businesses which are using email marketing as their primary source of driving traffic to their website by providing them offers with some valuable content. Email marketing can be a really powerful tool and with this i mean that your one email that attracts the users worldwide can significantly result in a greater traffic to your website.
- Pay per click popularly known as PPC is the easiest way to drive traffic to your website. PPc ads are those ads that shows up at the top of the search engine and these ads also allow you to add diverse keywords or a headline etc. If driving traffic to your website is not solely what you are looking for you want to know that which keyword is your highest converting keywords then also you can use PPC ads.
4. Build up a reputation of expert for yourself
As you all know that internet is the hub of information and most of the
time people scrolls internet to find some sort of information. You can also act
as an expert in giving solution to the people in what they are looking for.
What i mean is that you can give information for free to diverse sites where
people ask a question and after a certain time you will see a magic that your
site has more traffic and its search engine rankings are also increased and became
better. Now the most important thing is that you have to attach a link to your
site after the information ends or if it is related to your niche you can
implement the link anywhere but not everywhere.
5. Follow up
Now you have done all the
essential things of putting an online business but without this last step all
your work will result in waste because follow up is the second last step in the
sales process and the most important one. Now you have collected the emails of
different people by putting an offer. Now you are about to create the most
important asses of your online business. Your subscribers have given you
permission to send them an email (while collecting emails from the subscribers
and customers you have also enabled permission of sending emails). This means
that:
- You are providing something for what they have asked for
- You are building a lifelong connection with them.
- Respond is 100% measurable.
- Email marketing is affordable rather than print or TV because it is mostly targeted.
Anybody who comes to
your website and choose a list is certainly very hot lead. And to remind you
that there is no other better tool than Email marketing.
6. Increase
your Income.
One of the most important
marketing strategies is to build every consumer's lifelong values. According to
the surveys, it has resulted that at least 35% of the people who had purchased something
form you once will ought to buy form you again if you do the most important
step in sales process that means if you follow up with them. Closing your first
sale is one of the difficult part -- not to forget one of the most expensive
one.
But you have overcome this step now you need to use back-end and up
selling to get them buy once again:
· 1. Provide offers like 50%
discount limited time period etc. this sort of.
2. Once they purchase
don't forget to greet them with a warm "Thank You " .
3. Forward them loyalty
coupons once they purchase an item from your store which they can redeem on
their subsequent visit in their next purchase.
These are some of the
tricks that you can apply to increase your income. Here is a catch that consumer’s
wants empathy and also if you reward your customer for the loyalty they have
shown then they will become even more loyal.
