Blogging
For any company that owns a website, or for any webmaster owning an ecommerce store or a service website, blogging is the key to traffic as well as link baiting and keyword targeting.
Blogging shouldn’t be missed if you are in the online industry. Blogging will give any website the opportunity to present itself to immediate audience, not to mention the fact that blog posts can become viral and attract many links. But for immediate purposes they are far better and faster at attaining targeted traffic.
Forums
Most people think that forums are dying. Well, this is not true. The fact is that forums were ones social networks we used to hang at, now, forums are mostly niche specific and are visited only by highly interested parties.
So in other words, forums are a great place to promote yourself and your website and come off as a specialist in your niche and get that targeted traffic and those topic hungry visitors.
Social sites
Of course we mentioned social media sites and social networks. From the moment they were created, they were one of the best ways to get immediate traffic. But in order to get that traffic you need to participate in the community.
Surround yourself with people from your niche and communicate with them on a regular basis, in return your word will get out and as soon as you publish something new, people will know and they will spread it around.
Press releases
Although press releases are not good for creating links, they are still one of the best ways to create a hot buzz and get some hot and targeted traffic.
In order to use the press releases the right way, you need to have something newsworthy to offer, so that often intertwines with link bait and new services or products that people will want to know about.
You can also use the other side of news, and that is to post hot news on your own blog or website. The best course of action is to create a news section on your website and regularly post news regarding your niche and your topic. That can be a great way to get some traffic as well as links.
