Site Traffic Increase

[midwestkel]

We need to make a list of good ways to increase traffic. Not only to our RSP sites but to other sites we make.

This is what I have found to be helpful:

1) Good meta tags
2) ALT tags, TITLE tags, etc.
3) SEO
4) I post in guestbooks too

One thing that has always worked for me is press releases. Use them religiously! The primary bulk of my traffic has always been the result of press releases. Not only are they fairly easy to put together, but they also do not cost you anything.

We generate the majority of our traffic through hosting directories, our offline "Service Guide" and good old word of mouth. We also run a number of articles in the local paper to promote deals we are doing for the local community. We also leave business cards "lying around" when we go out.

What do you mean by press releases?

[Guest]

Anytime something newsworthy happens, we always send out a press release. Whether it's introducing a new plan, brand, pricing scheme, or what have you. It keeps you in the public eye, and shows that you're not just a has-been (like some hosts, such as Timehost, are).

[midwestkel]

Oh where do you submit these things to?

[Guest]

Here are a few of the sites we use now, and have used in the past:

PRWeb.com
HostReview.com
TheHostingNews.com
WebHostMagazine.com
TheWHIR.com
Ping!Zine

For a few of them, you may have to dig a little bit to find submission info (such as TheWHIR and Ping!Zine), but it's on their site. As long as your release is news-worthy, any/all of these sites will usually run it.

Awesome,

Thanks for the info I will have to look into those site.

Well done Dan
