(2) Have A BLOG Linked To Your Website.

Ever heard the saying “content is king?”, in this age where the modern day customer is knowledgeable more than ever, businesses and websites that spend time creating valuable blogposts and articles are more likely to outperform those who just have websites with little or no engaging and valuable content. I have made purchases from websites solely because I landed on their blog and with the content and helpful information found on the blog, I perceived them to be a thought leader in that field and it was easy for me to be converted into a customer. Because search engines loves valuable content, articles and blogposts are easily picked up by Google. Every time your blog is updated with new information, various search engines are alerted about this and this post will be indexed almost immediately. Putting your main keywords as part of your fresh content will help you rank higher in search engines. Blogging adds dynamic pages to your website and this one thing search engines love. The good thing is – Blogging is free and requires little technical knowledge or skill. [ad name=”HTML”]

(3) Submit Content to Various Article Directories.

By writing then submitting articles to directories, you are guaranteed long term traffic. When your article gets posted in these directories, you get exposure. In the resource box provided by most article submission websites, you’ll get to write your website address and more information about your website and article. This becomes a link which points back to your website. And this is counted as a vote by search engines. There are literally hundreds of article directories out there waiting for your submission. While your article stays in the directories, they get picked up by other sites hungry for fresh content and articles. What happens if thousands of other websites takes your article from these submission sites and reuse it on their websites?
