Tips to Increase Traffic to Your Website

1.      Shameless Self-Promotion- If you don’t promote your website, who will?

2.      Harness the power of social media, Link building and content aggregators- social media sites (Facebook, twitter, Etc.), content aggregators (Technorati is the best one, IMO) and basic link sharing can all drive traffic to your website.

3.      Search Engine Optimization-

4.      Forum groups-forums allow you to target a specific group of people.

5.      Opt-in email- having people give you their email addresses allows you to have a dedicated fan base.
