3 Tips To Attracting Visitors To Your Site

When you are in affiliate marketing, it is crucial that you can bring visitors to your site. However, many affiliate marketers are struggling to get visitors to their affiliate marketing platforms. If you are one of them, below are 3 tips which you will want to take a look at,

1. Search engine optimization

Did you notice the blue title bar at the top left corner of your window whenever you visit a site? That is the title tag where search engines' spiders will crawl to rank your site (In order for your website or blog to rank high in the search engines, the spiders will crawl more than the title tag. But for now, let's deal with that first). So, when you are deciding on a title, remember to put in the keywords that resonate with your business.

Now, you can easily change the title if you own the site. But how about those who are using free blogging platform? Once you have agreed on the title, you are basically stuck with it. Although you can create a new blog but how many blogs are you going to create to build your affiliate marketing business? So, think it through before you settle on the title.

2. List members

Who are better prospects if not your list members? One of the reasons you build your list is to update them about the products that you think can solve their problem. So, remember to end your every email with your website to remind your list members about your business.

And if you are running any promotion or discount, remember to send the exciting news to your members. The discount might be the incentive your members need to buy from you. By the way, don't just send your emails when you have something exciting to share, you can email your members once in a while and tell them about your business. Most of the members won't mind the advertisement as long as you do it diligently.

So, if you are still thinking about building your list and getting your own autoresponder service, I urge you not to. Because the longer you think about getting the service, the more money you are leaving on the table for other people to take.

I strongly recommend you to get started today.

3. Social networking sites

I personally think that social networking sites have brought new changes to how you can bring visitors to your site. Not just that you can advertise your affiliate marketing business like Google Adwords (you can even have pictures to help attract visitors) on social networking sites, you can also create group and fan page to promote your business.

You can then create interesting content and slip your affiliate link in the content and publish it in the group and fan page. And looking at the high popularity of the social networking sites nowadays, you can see the visits to your site almost immediately.

Now, I know how important visitors are to your affiliate marketing business but whatever you do, please avoid from paying visitors to your site (that means buying traffic). Why?

Think about it, you want your visitors to buy your things when they visit your site. But in this case, your visitors make money by going to site. Do you think anyone of them is going to buy your stuffs? You might get one or two of them to respond but I can tell you that the money your make from them will certainly be unparallel with the money you spend on them.

Create your success,
