Is anyone book marking
your website?
By Diane Leonte
How many articles have you read in the past few months which
revealed the most effective ways for you to drive more
traffic to your web site?
How many hours have you spent....
-tweaking your meta tag's keywords and webpage descriptions?
-creating doorway and hallway pages?
-analyzing keyword density on your webpages?
-resubmitting your webpages to the major search engines?
-monitoring your positioning on Alta Vista?
How much money have you spent on software tools, courses
and ebooks to help you learn how to drive more targeted
traffic to your website?
How many Classified Ads have you placed to attract more
targeted traffic to your web site?
How about banner impressions?
Did you bid for the keywords on GOTO.com that would bring
more targeted traffic to your web site?
And so on......
Am I implying this money and time was not well spent. NO,
absolutely not. We need to drive targeted traffic to our web
sites.
However, what I am wondering is that given you succeed with
driving more targeted traffic to your website ... is your
website's content compelling enough to keep your visitors
interested in staying around for awhile, purchasing your
products, and bookmarking your site for future visits?
Did you spend half the amount of time and money creating a
"Destination" website, one that visitors bookmark and come
back to over and over again? Or is your website one more
disappointing dead end for visitors?
For instance......
Does your website provide compelling benefit rich content?
Is your content original and hard to find elsewhere?
Do you offer something free to your visitor that is useful
to them?
Is this the same giveaway they can get at many of your
competitors websites?
Do you offer your visitors a free ezine, or a free
autoresponder, or a free email account, or free search
engine submission?
Can your visitors join an online community by participating
in your discussion board?
Do you lose your visitors to outside links you imbed in your
content? Or do you use the HTML "target" feature to keep the
windows for the outside links opening up without leaving
your webpage?(see http://wealthinmind.com/htmltarget.html
for an example)
Is your content fresh, timely, and germane to your website's
theme?
Can a visitor navigate your website with ease? Do they reach
any link on any of your webpages with no way to get back, or
not knowing why they arrived there?
Do you give away much more then you expect to receive in
return on your website?
Do your visitors find what they expect when they arrive at
your website?
Is there benefit rich content on the subject they were
looking for when they clicked on your link?
Are your visitors bombarded with gyrating banners screaming
at them to buy products that are totally unrelated to what
they came looking for?
You get my point.....
Simply stated.... if you succeed in driving massive amounts
of visitors to your website, most of them will not buy what
you are selling if you do not capture their attention with
the "Content" you offer them.
Nothing else will compel your visitors to buy except the way
in which you use content on your website.
Free Content is still "KING" on the Internet. Information
is still the main reason people get on the Internet. Load
your website with free compelling, timely, quality content
which is easy to access and offers immediate benefits, and
your visitors will hang around and look forward to
returning.
By all means I would encourage you to continue your efforts
to drive more targeted traffic to your website, but first
design a welcoming website that invites your visitor to come
in, reach for their cup of starbucks coffee and stay awhile.
If your visitors find something of value when they arrive at
your website, they will surely add your website to their
bookmarks or favorites.
Your visitors are more likely to buy something you are
selling on their return visit, so give them a good reason to
come back.
Good luck Online!
