Traffice Secrets

[dis0wned]

Hi all,

I know traffic secrets are the holy grail in this business, but is anyone out there willing to share some traffic and seo secrets? I recently submitted my sites to digg and got a nice return but then it got burried. I spend hours daily trying to find the right place to submit my site to, do link exchanges, and social networking but so far it seems to be in vain. I know it can take some time, but any true tips would be greatly appreciated. I am not looking to pay for traffic either,

I think there are no secrets. You need only to work hard and with constance to find the right way.

You learn SEO by doing it, trial and error. And stay away from get rich quick with seo e-books or scams. Getting everything right and growing websites takes a lot of work, time and patience.

coolanddrew....4pleasure ... both of them have really good points. I've benn in the business several years now and have learned that just working hard and getting the name out there is the best thing. The seo secrets? Well, there really isn't a secret to it. Just make sure to use your writing to make sure that is filling the niche that you are selling. Don't overuse the words, but also make sure to use <i></i> ...and the <b></b> for certain key words that will help on your page somewhat.

Again I would agree with the other comments above about the need to learn for yourself and constantly "tweak" what you are doing but I can give you a few things that might help you:-
1. Make sure your pages are all set up correctly (Meta tags, titles, descriptions, keywords, etc . .).
2. Select which keywords you want to target carefully. This tool is very useful:-
https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal
It allows you to type in certain keywords and phrases and see how many times a month they are searched in Google globally and also locally to your Geo-targetted area. This allows you to see if the keywords you are aiming your site at are actually being searched on heavily or not. Don't necessarily go for the number one search term in your niche - others with better knowledge than you may already be hitting that hard. Look slightly further down the list at keywords and phrases that get large numbers of searches but aren't necessarily the top of the list and then try to get your site ranking highly for those keywords.
3. Try to get as many content-related backlinks as possible. The verdict is still out on whether "any old" link is constructive, but links to your site from other sites with similar content are DEFINITELY constructive to helping your Google ranking. If you can do an A-B-C type link with these sites that's even better but even an old-fashioned reciprocal link is beneficial.
Good luck!

The way I learned about SEO and traffic is this:

1- Trial and error

Each site is different, only after observing what ranks high and what not you can tweak it.

seo can only bring in so much traffic, doesn't one needs to be creative in finding bigger ways of getting more traffic?
