It's easy to do SEO when you got an old site that already has a ton of backlinks. It's easy to spend money on paid advertising when you're already rich and you're an established company. But what happens when you're a new website? How to Increase Organic Traffic on your Blog? Hey everyone, welcome to PieTune, and today I'm telling you to break down the fastest ways to bring traffic to a brand new site.
How many of you have a new website?
I'm curious because if you have a new website, I want to see if you implement these tactics. And don't just tell me if you have a new website. List out the URL. I'm going to see if you implement these tactics so we can see your traffic change once you implement them one by one because I bet you it will work. And if you use these tactics and you don't see them again, you can hit me up personally and I will personally help you out for free. That's how confident I am that these tactics will work.
The Fastest Ways to Bring Traffic to a New Website
Step 1 partner with other content creators.
Have you thought about hosting blog content? So all the things where I'll go and I'll create content with other people and we'll do it on a similar topic. For example,
- joint webinar,
- joint podcast.
- Roundup posts.
- Interviews with other people.
By partnering with other content creators, you'll find that they'll promote the content and you'll promote the content as well.
But you may be like, PieTune, I don't have any traffic to my site. That's okay. That's why I also gave you options to interview people and do roundup posts because people are always flattered to be interviewed. People are always flattered to be included in a roundup post. And you know what, when you include X person in these posts, what are they going to do when it gets published?
They're going to share it. When they share it on their favorite social site, what happens, you get more traffic. And yeah, you may find that all of the experts may not share the content, but if you email asking them to, a large portion will.
I'm talking about 30%, 40% plus. I found that when people interview me and they ask me to share the content, almost always I share it.
Step 2 Giveaways, contests, or promotions
Look, reach out to other websites in your niche, offer them something that's valuable to their audience, and they'll spread the word. When they do, you'll get extra traffic. Giveaways have been so effective. You guys are all familiar with the guy named Tai Lopez. Here in my garage is this Lamborghini, right? He's famous or known for that video as well as a lot of other things. What does Tai do that is extremely effective and smart? He does a ton of giveaways. He's given away money, he's given away cars, he's given away shoes, he gives away whatever he wants to giveaway that he can think of. And it's super effective, because
when you do giveaways, people love it, they spread the word, you get a ton of traffic, you get a ton of followers, a ton of engagement, and you can keep leveraging that audience to keep coming back. When you get those people during those giveaways, make sure you collect their email addresses, because by collecting their email addresses and then you release blog posts or new features or content, you can always email them to get them back to your site.
Step 3 Push notifications
It's the simplest way to keep getting more and more traffic. Just think of it this way. Look, someone comes to your site, are they going to come back? Chances are no. If you're not sure about this, check out Google Analytics. There's a cohort report in there, it shows you how often people come back. You're lucky if three months down the road even 1% of your audience comes back.
By doing those push notifications with one click, someone subscribed to your site, they don't have to Putin an email or anything, they don't have to give you any of their personal information, and then any time you release more content, any new features, promotions, you can message them all out and quickly get them back to your site. And you can use Subscribers to do this, subscribers.com.
STEP 4 paid ads
Did you know in many cases Google AdWords will give you $50 or $100 in free ad spend? Don't believe me, google for it. You'll find a ton of offers and coupons like that. You can use it to get started, it'll give you a quick boost in traffic.
Yes, those visitors may not convert into customers because you may not have enough time to run the optimal campaigns, but it's a great start. Just try that out, you'll get a quick boost of traffic. And you know what?
If you get some sales, you can keep doing more and more of it over time.
Step 5 comment on other blogs in your industry
Now, when you comment on these blogs, I'm not just saying leave stuff like, "Nice content!" "Good job!" I'm talking about leaving detailed comments that provide readers with feedback. Now when you leave a comment, right, and people are getting all this advice and feedback from you, when you leave that comment, you'll find that it's asking for your name and URL and comment. You already know what to do in the comment box.
Your name is your name. Your URL should be your website URL. Then, eventually, as people like your comments, they will click on those comments, people will go to your site, and you'll be getting more visitors.
Do you know about a site called Mashable? Pete Cashmore, the founder of Mashable, that's what he did when he first started off, that's how he grew that site in popularity.
