Increase Page Views And Keep Targeted Traffic Longer
Copyright © Leon Bowes
http://www.HonestlyFreeHomeBiz.comIf you have a website, it will only be successful if you can get targeted traffic to it and keep them there long enough to get your message across.
The level of success for a website is usually related to the number of page views it gets each day. Page views are generated when unique visitors find your site while surfing the Internet to find the answers to questions or information about a certain topic.
The more time a visitor spends on your site, the more likely it is they will get your message and take action. Enticing visitors to click through the pages of your website is a good way to keep them on your site.
You can increase page views with four easy steps:
Fill your site with relevant, unique, well written contentPeople are hungry for quality and relevant information. That is one of their key reasons for surfing the Internet. It has been said many times that content is king, but content
really is king when it comes to the Internet.
If your site provides the information they need, they will be more than willing to check it out and even bookmark it so they can return to it and possibly recommend it to others. Your content will also get picked up by the search engines, ranking you higher so people will find you easier and keep visiting your site.
Keep your copy short and simpleSome people find it difficult to string a single sentence together; others never know when to stop! When it comes to website copy, remember the good old acronym, K. I. S. S. - keep it short and simple!
Provide the information in concise and easy-to-read sentences. Keep your paragraphs short as people have short attention spans on the Internet. Do not expect them to read a thousand word article.
While on the Internet, people tend to just scan articles for the information they need. They will only read an article from start to finish if the style and content are so good that they can not help but read everything.
Use proper highlighting and formattingThe style and appearance is very important. If your website looks dull, with great chunks of hard-to-digest text, people will surf out as quickly as they surfed in.
You can increase the time they spend on your site by highlighting all the keywords and key phrases. Do not be afraid of white space, either. Generally speaking, highlighted text that is laid out with plenty of white space around it is attractive to the eye and helps the visitor to scan the page, which will be appreciated.
Break up longer articles into pages that deal with different sections of your theme and invite the visitor to
view more or
go to next page by posting a link at the bottom of each section.
Put article teasers and a site map on your main pageAnother way to increase page views is to place excerpts or teasers from your other pages on your homepage. Link each teaser to the respective webpage to encourage click-throughs.
It is also an excellent idea to provide a site map to make it easier for people as well as search engine spiders to navigate your site.
These are the four easy steps you need to implement to increase page views and get targeted website traffic to stick around your site long enough to get your message.
