Looking to improve the traffic to your website?

In this post we will be looking at ways that you can attract more visitors to your site and improve your page ranking.

Keyword Research

The content on your website should always contain relevant keywords. The keywords should be used naturally, and you should avoid “keyword stuffing” as this will result in your site listing poorly in search results.

There are many tools available to help you with keyword research, such as Moz and Ahrefs.

These sites can reveal :

  • Which keywords your competitors use
  • How often people search for those keywords
  • How much these words cost in pay-per-click ads
  • Related keywords

Use Advertising

There are a number of ways to use paid advertising on the web, including pay-per-click (PPC), social media and display ads.
