Everyone wants traffic. Everyone needs traffic. It’s a major building block of every website’s success. But how can you get it?

I’ll tell you how NOT to get it! You should never ever buy “targeted traffic” unless you are with AdWords. You see, when you purchase traffic from someone, they redirect visitors from one place to your site. This causes them to be suprised very inexpectedly. Nine times out of ten, they will leave your site without seeing what you have to offer.

On the other hand, if you have traffic from people that had the intention of visiting your website, they’ll be more likey to come back later.

Search engine optimization (SEO) is when you format your site so that search engines can navigate through it very easily. You may notice that sometimes when you get a website template, it says “Search Engine Friendly” or ” Search Engine Optimized”- they are very helpful with getting traffic! Also, you want to do some keyword research so you know what phrases to use often.

For example, instead of using the phrase “tickets that you can buy at Airtran are not extremely expensive” you should write “cheap Airtran airlines tickets” because that is more searched. It’ll show up more often and will get more clicks to your blog!
