Post by Scott BrycePost by rajesh kumarHow to increase unique visitor ? And whats the different sources ?
Write content that is so compelling that your visitors will want to tell
their friends about it.
*** He should also be willing to update and change that content on a
regular basis.
In addition:
* Keep the opening page short and fast loading with no proprietary html,
and with no plug-ins or add-ons required. If any of this is needed or
becomes used elsewhere at the site, supply comprehensive "Alt" and "No
Script / No Frames" alternatives.
* Make the site easy to navigate with Tables of Contents (ToC) pages for
each subsection as opposed to one large, links-bloated main page.
* Keep links selection on each ToC page short. As suggested above, too
many links can be overwhelming.
* Be sure that your site can be seen and navigated with a text browser.
That ensures traffic from users of all platforms.
* If the site is, or becomes, very large, do place a "Search" feature
specific to the site.
I even incorporate a Search field into each major subsection of my
websites. These focus a visitor's requests into ever more-narrowing
areas and increases the likelihood of him finding what he wants, while
keeping the search results simple and non over-whelming.
This last point is important. Finding what one wants quickly by
presenting fewer, more focused choices makes for longer stays. There is
little worse than losing a visitor from his frustration or he being
unable to find what he wants even though the site actually has the desired
content. )-:
Hopefully all this will equate into the visitor telling his friends, as
Scott has pointed out.
...and finally:
* Advertise the site in relevant newsgroups and forums
(within the guidelines of those groups, of course.)
* If appropriate for the site, make up business cards to hand out
at in-person meetings.
* Place the URL in your signature for e-mails and posts to newsgroups and
forums.
* Participate in shows, seminars, fleamarkets, and so on that are relevant
to the website and have advertisements in the forms of banners,
business cards, flyers, etc.
* Contact sitemasters of websites with similar content and announce your
website to see if they will link to yours. (You should, in turn, be
willing to post their links.)
--------
Above all, the content must make visitors want to return to one's site
and hopefully recommend it to others seeking that same type of content.
