How To Increase Your Site Traffic And Succeed With Your Affiliate Marketing Programs

Increasing your site traffic is one of the most important aspects to succeeding with your affiliate marketing programs. If you don't have a substantial number of visitors to the site, you'll never gain any traction on affiliate offers. This post will show you how to increase your site traffic right away and create an irresistible offer that will draw in those readers!

In this post, we're going to be looking at three different techniques for increasing website traffic. The first way is through attracting links from other sites, the second is by using social media platforms like Reddit or Quora, and third is by developing a community around your blog or brand online.

Increasing Traffic to your Site – The Basics

The first thing you need to do to begin increasing your traffic is to identify which keywords are going to be useful for you. You can use keyword tools like Google Adwords, Keyword Planner, or Ubersuggest.io. These tools will help you find all the different keywords that people are searching for on the internet. This is important because it determines what your blog will be about.

For example, if I was talking about how to play chess, I would only want my site to appear when someone searches "how do I play chess". Now I would want to take the keywords that are becoming more and more popular every day. For example, if you were looking at the Google Keyword planner for 2017, you would see that top searched keywords on the internet in 2017 are:

Now in order to find out what your blog could be about, run a search for ALL of these keywords on your subject. 

This will give you a great idea of what your readers are looking for. Don't forget to use variations of all these keywords so that people aren't going directly to a blog about chess or how to play chess! Here is an example of how this looks in Google Adwords:  

You'll see above I'm searching for ALL the different variations (i.e. "how do I learn chess", "how do I play chess", etc.) of the exact query I'm looking for – all in the same month. This is a good idea because if there's one key piece of information you want to share, search engine bots will only find this once but will link back to you hundreds of times.

Now that you know what keywords people are searching for, figure out how many people searches those words every month. This statistic can show you whether or not your blog is worth investing in or if it's going to be an appropriate target market for your readers. Here's how you can find this statistic:

Now that you know your target market is appropriate, it's time to get your traffic flowing! The first way we're going to do this is by attracting links from other sites.

Clickbait titles like "7 secrets of…" or "13 things you didn't know about…" are the easiest ways to attract attention on the internet and can quickly increase your traffic. Furthermore, if your content relates back to these keywords in some way then readers will naturally link back to you when they share it on social media platforms like Facebook or Twitter! 

To create these titles, simply google the keyword you want and try to think of a provocative but true statement that could be made about it.

Conclusion

This is an excellent way to increase your traffic and get people interested in your content. Everyone loves a good list or quiz so this is a great way to find out what your readers are interested in.

Here's an example of something I could write:  

"Secrets of the Mind (A Book) You Didn't Know You Didn't Know"  

When it comes to using social media platforms, you have a few options available to you: 1) Reddit, 2) Quora, 3) Facebook groups or pages. In this article we're going to be focusing on Reddit. Here's why: Reddit typically has more traffic than Quora and Facebook.
