It’s Not Called The Information “Super”Highway For No Reason

That’s because there is a lot of traffic to be had out there.  Some estimates put the estimate that there are 250 million people out there every day.  That’s MILLION.  Many people use it to find information about different topics.  Twenty-five years ago, you would have to go to the library, use the card catalog, search up and down shelve, and, if you were lucky, find the answer to a pressing question.  Thank God times have changed.  Usually the answer (with the help of an Internet-connected computer) can be found in a matter of seconds. People will often be willing to pay for the information, especially if looking for a song, a book, an image.

 

That’s where you would come in.  Often people use Google to find what they need, but sometimes will just use the phrase with a www. in front and a .com at the end.  For example, if you were looking for sneakers, you could go to Google and put it into the search box, or you might open a browser and type in www.sneakers.com. You will find results both ways.  The key to having high traffic (and high $) is to have a good name.  You can find availability of names at GoDaddy and it might even produce a few tips for names.  Premium names may cost more, but there are plenty of names available for around $10 a year. 

 

Here are some ideas for creating traffic to your website (once a great name has been chosen and a hosting company selected)

• Create a blog – there are some great free tools available at WordPress. Blogging and posting on a regular basis helps also to have you ranked higher in the Google search engine.  Because so many use Google, it is important to be ranked high.
• PPC, or pay-per-click -  many of the search engines have the service available to advertise (you have seen them, the “ads by Google” or sponsored ads).  It works like this: You have an advertisement and you only pay when that ad is clicked.  The key is to create traffic.
• Let others know about it – This could be as easy as mentioning to your friends that you have a website.  Viral marketing is an exciting way to advertise and create traffic for very little investment.
• Read – there is a plethora of examples to be found on the Web, it just takes some investment of time.  The great thing is that you can do it on your time, you don’t have to go when the library is open. 

 

The library now is always open!  More traffic ideas to come in a few days!
