Before I dive right into the steps you can use to increase your website traffic, I want to highlight two traffic sources for you.

There are two ways which any one can use in getting traffic on the internet and they include paid traffic and organic traffic.

When we talk of paid traffic, this involves you spending money to get people to your website.

This can be inform of running advertisement on Google, Bing, social media platforms such as Facebook, twitter, instagram etc.

Moving over to organic traffic, it involves you getting traffic to your website without having to spend a dime. This kind of traffic can be gotten from search engines.

For example “If someone searches for a particular topic and you have written about that topic and search engine finds your content relevant it shows your content to the person which when he/she clicks on the link, it will take them straight to your page.

This way you can get tons of traffic to your website without spending money.

With this said lets jump into the steps you can use to increase your website traffic.

This would involve you using keywords that you can rank for easily on search engines. There are tools out there that can help you when it comes to picking the right keywords to use in your content.
