Hello Nairalanders

whats the best traffic generating tips you have tried , I have tried yahoo answers , yahoo groups , article marketting and forum posting , whats have you tried??

What exactly are you generating traffic to? If it's your website, submitting your links to web directories is a fine place to start.

both a website and a blog

Hi yommys01,

Start submitting your website to web directories. Then submit your Blog site to Blog directories. There are just hundreds of them on the web. Directory submission is a great way to drive traffic to your site/Blog. Search engines will only rate your site as important if there are links on other sites pointing to your own website/Blog. By so doing, if anyone searches for any of the keywords which you used for you site's SEO, your site will also come up in the search results. My company even has a free web directory located at http://www.mexabet.biz/ already developed, which we're going to launch in coming months. The launching is being delayed because we haven't finished the ads plugin integration. However, I will post the launch date here, when we're ready.

Another thing is to make sure your website is being crawled by search engine spiders/crawlers or bots (robots). First upload robots.txt to the same directory where your website is, if you haven't done so. If you have done so, make sure the robots.txt is not restricting any crawler from accessing your web pages. A sample of robots.txt is given below:

User-agent: *
Disallow: /

That's it! Just copy the above, open your Notepad and paste it there. Save it as robots.txt . The above script is an invitation to crawlers to do their work. Do not neglect it. More help concerning robots.txt can be found at: http://www.robotstxt.org/robotstxt.html.

Another step, make sure you have the sitemap of your site uploaded to your server. Your sitemap should be in XML format. For more details, visit http://www.sitemaps.org/.

Open an account with Google Accounts and go to Webmaster Tools. It is free and that's the place you can inform Google about your site/Blog. Do not underestimate the interaction between you and google here. Yahoo has a similar one called Site Explorer and it demands you have a Yahoo account to interact with them using Site Explorer. Microsoft Live Search has their own called Webmaster Center, located at http://webmaster.live.com/.  These major search engines use those area to interact more with webmasters, thereby, learning more about their pages.

Last but not the least, start engaging in link exchange program. Exchange links with people who have sites of similar interest. E.g., if you have a site that sells rugs, exchange links with sites that sell other types of home decorations, such as beds, chairs, etc. Your site's visitors would find such links useful. But don't exchange links with sites that compete with yours.

After submitting your website to search engines, remember there is no advertising that has a bigger spread than word of mouth (lip service). But more importantly, turn out good content, that's the surest way to know that the viewers will return.
Cheers mate.
