Web Traffic for the New Website or Blog Owner

So you built a new website or started a new blog on Wordpress or Blogger …

Nobody is visiting your site or blog and you’ve spent hours making it great and it seems like nobody cares !!!  A few weeks go by and still nothing… no visitors!

I know, you feel lost! You have Googled “web traffic” and got a gazzilion sites selling you traffic or SEO Services or “FREE Website Traffic” in exchange for xyz.    Everybody wants something, right?

Well hopefully this will help get your site / blog going:

There are a few things you absolutely must do:

Before we begin, if you’re not using Firefox as your browser, get it now and forget all the others: www.mozilla.com/firefox/

Ok let’s start

1) Get a Google account. If you don’t have one, get one here ->www.google.com/webmasters/tools/

2) Add your site / blog to your webmaster account and follow the steps provided by Google.

3) Create a sitemap of your site. If you don’t have a sitemap tool then here is a great free one written in Java: http://www.auditmypc.com/xml-sitemap.asp

4) Add your sitemap to your Google webmaster account for your site.

5) To get indexed quickly by Google, get yourself a SpicyPage account here: http://spicypage.com and add your site. Please vote for LinkChili.com too

6) Get yourself some backlinks. You can get your first one from Linkchili.com (this is a good starting point, especially if you do not already have any links. Be aware that generally linkfarms cannot provide quality links. By “quality links” I mean links that are contextually relevant to the content of your site and have a minimum “Page Rank” (PR) of 4)

Ok, now some stuff about your site.

Have you set your title tags?

Selecting a Title Tag

This lets the search engines know what your site/blog is all about. A title tag is the first thing a search engine will see and it will be judged upon the relevancy it has to the content of your website. It is highly recommended to ensure that your most important keywords are located in the title tag to increase the relevancy between the site and the title.

A title tag example for this Article would be: < title >Web Traffic for the New Website or Blog Owner< /title >

What do your Keywords look like?

Monitoring your Keyword Density

The keywords you select should all be relevant to the content of your site. Your choice of keywords is critical, so be sure there is a DIRECT relationship between these words and your sites purpose.

A keyword example for this Article would be: Traffic Generators. Now you should be in the position where your site is getting some traffic and your Alexa Rank is coming down – as you can see in your Alexa Sparky tool bar.

Good Luck! All the best with your site / blog may it grow and grow and grow.
