Website Newbie - Wanna Have Traffic?
By: Gina Marie Capatar
No traffic, no income, nothing. After you’ve gone through nights and days of brainstorming on what to put on your site, what to offer to your visitors, and how will your website look, now you are faced with questions like ‘What now?’, ‘How will the people know about me?’, ‘Why are there no visitors, no sales?’
As a new website owner myself, I also have gone through that tight spot. I think desperation for visitors is really the first phase of any website that has recently been launched. At the first few weeks of my site, I went through so many doubts because I relatively had zero traffic! Is my site really as useful as I think? I changed so many things, from ad placements, colors, etc. thinking that maybe people do not like the colors or that the overall production of what I have to offer is just too drab and uninteresting.
I consulted a friend who owns a website and he taught me a few points which I’m gonna share with you. This disclosure of ideas is, of course, with his permission. So, sit tight and let me share with you what I have found out.
The first thing I learned is to make my website appearance neat and orderly and to avoid colors that are hurtful to the visitor’s eyes. Also, I should try to make everything look good and harmonious. Next is to embed some kind of a traffic monitor in the code so I will know how many visitors I am getting everyday. The traffic monitor can also be used to observe from which referring link the visitors came from. In choosing a traffic monitor, be sure that it could provide the needed stats so that from the stats, a website owner can better optimize his/her site for traffic. Better choose one that is free.
