VKontakte traffic statistics is an excellent tool for a person who is promoting their own page for commercial or creative purposes. It allows the account owner to find out about the target audience of the profile, their location and track how effective a particular post is in the ratio of views and likes.

1. Statistics are kept in real time, and new data can be obtained with each page refresh.
2. All information is presented in the form of diagrams and interactive graphs. By hovering over their elements, you can familiarize yourself with all the elements of interest to the user, having previously sorted them by time, location, etc.
3. At the bottom of each section (under the graphs), there are buttons with information, by clicking on which you can hide or vice versa, display the data.
4. Unlike communities, where access to statistics can be provided to all users, a separate page can only be viewed by the owner, without the possibility of opening access to third parties.

If a person has more than a hundred subscribers in their profile, they can use the statistics tool. It will allow him to find out about the current subscriptions to the page, unsubscriptions and the number of visits within a certain period of time. This can be done using a special button located either at the bottom of the profile, or under the audio and video recordings.

If a person has less than a hundred subscribers, he will not be able to see changes in statistics, coverage and attendance. Even if you use the formula https://vk.com/stats?mid=*, where instead of an asterisk, you must specify the address of your own page, the statistics will most likely show a zero result.

Terms of access to VKontakte attendance statistics

As noted above, the only condition that a user page must meet is the presence of more than a hundred subscribers. It is important to note that people who are friends do not belong to this category: if there are more than a hundred friends, and there are only 90 subscribers, the user will not be able to enter the statistics section, since he simply will not find the corresponding button in his profile.
Subscribers are people who previously sent a friend request (but the application was not approved, or approved, but the person was removed from the friends list), or who subscribed to updates.

If a user wants to see his attendance statistics in VK, but cannot because of the insufficient number of subscribers, he can easily fix the situation. The easiest way is to use third-party services for boosting subscribers on social networks. However, there are risks here. For example, in most cases, not real people will come to the VK page, but bots that will soon be removed by the administration of the social network. This cheating method can also lead to the blocking of the user's own page. The second method requires a lot of effort: you need to attract subscribers by publishing interesting content and promoting your page.

Audience analysis tools

The statistics section is represented by three tabs: reach, attendance and activity. In the first tab, the user can find out how popular his page is. In particular, it shows the number of people who saw posts in the news feed, or went to the wall itself. They can be sorted by age, geographic location, and gender.

The second tab - traffic - displays unique visitors to the page, views and transitions within the profile for a certain period of time (day or month). Sorting also allows you to select categories: gender, age, geographic location.

This tool includes everything you need to analyze your profile audience and come in handy:

• Those who are active on the social network and blog with constant content publishing.
• Those who use their own page not only as a means of communication with friends, but also for commercial purposes (in the case of advertising sales, statistics can be sent to advertisers as proof of high page traffic).
• For ordinary users who want to know what part of the audience regularly views VKontakte posts.

The minimum threshold for the number of subscribers for the ability to view statistics is one hundred people. It is believed that only popular users can view traffic data. To use this tool, you need to open your profile and click on the icon located under the photo or in the audio and video sections (at the very bottom).

Rules for reading statistics charts

If the VK page is really popular among users, there will be many different graphs and charts in the statistics sections. They display all the information a person is interested in about those people who went to his profile. At the same time, it is impossible to find out their names and page addresses. This tool is necessary, first of all, to know the contingent of your audience interested in specific records. In the future, this information can be used to adjust the posted information and increase popularity.

What are the parameters to check the attendance of the VK page

As noted above, the statistics of a VKontakte user page consists of three tabs: coverage, attendance and activity. Each section contains unique information in the form of graphs and diagrams. The graphical presentation of data with linear segments is accompanied by numbers that give a detailed report on how many people visited the page, viewed posts, left feedback, etc.

The following tools are available in the "Attendance" tab to obtain the most detailed information:

Together, these parameters give a complete picture of the status and popularity of the profile. From the data obtained, you can get an idea of ​​all categories of the audience visiting the page.

Difference between Reach tab and Attendance tab

The "Attendance" section displays the statistics of the profile itself (guests, subscribers, etc.). In the "Reach" tab, you can see how many users have viewed a specific post on the wall, be it an article, photo, audio or video. In particular, the following parameters are presented here:

1. Reach audience. It is divided into two categories: profile subscribers and all users who viewed the entry in their feed, in the "Recommendations" section, or who accidentally entered the page.
2. Age category and gender. Unlike the "Attendance" section, data is provided exclusively about those who viewed the post.
3. Location. It also takes into account only targeted views, namely: from which city or country the people who saw this or that post.
4. Devices. The tab gives a clear idea of ​​whether people are visiting the page from computers or smartphones.

How to increase traffic to the VKontakte page

Each user can increase the statistics of visits to their profile on the VKontakte social network on their own, without involving specialists for search engine optimization and cheating subscribers and targeted actions on third-party sites and exchanges. All that is needed for this is to build a competent marketing strategy and act in accordance with it. In the beginning, of course, you should think about the content that will interest the audience.

News, articles or photos must be published regularly and of high quality. It is then that he will interest subscribers, he will be evaluated and commented on.

For those who do not want to engage in content, but want people to visit their page and improve indicators only for statistics and general view (many likes, comments), you can use free cheat services. Their essence is simple: you need to complete tasks - subscribe to groups, comment on other people's posts. For this, points are awarded, for which in the future you can "buy" yourself subscribers, comments, reposts.

It is worth remembering that using such means of increasing traffic to the VKontakte page should be done with caution. Otherwise, there is a risk of being temporarily or permanently blocked by the administration of the social network.

I, of course, am not a Jew, but to your question: "How to increase the site traffic?" I will also answer with a question, even two: “Why are you interested? What do you want with this? ”.

Think I'm interested for idle curiosity? Not at all. My task is to understand what methods, methods, and possibly programs to advise so that you get the desired result.

But since we have a blog for business owners, then the advice will be appropriate.

goals of increasing

Let's still figure out what are the goals, why people increase traffic to their site.

If we remove charity and other non-commercial goals, then, as a rule, 2 goals are pursued when promoting a site. And they completely depend on the person who does it:

1. Blogger / freelancer promotes the site to make money on it;
2. The company / business promotes the site to receive orders.

However, what is the difference? As a rule, a site made by a blogger / freelancer is created from scratch and promoted with a minimal budget, most often there is none at all. This means that its promotion is completely different from the classic business.

Therefore, freelancers use such dubious methods of promotion as commenting on other people's articles or installing scripts on their website that work on the principle of a network pyramid. That is, a special code is installed on the site that displays ads from other sites.

Others do the same and drive the same users between different sites.

We, as heads of companies that create a website to receive orders, are interested in adequate, I would even say, “white” ways to increase traffic on a newly created website. After all, as a rule, old people do not have such a question in this matter.

Before moving on to the methods, let's decide which website traffic will we increase? After all, the type of site can change everything. And the sites are different, for example, it can be:

1. (one-page selling site);
2. Multi-page site;
3. Online store;
4. Blog (where you are now).

Which site should you use? It all depends on the strategy. In reality, many companies are switching to multi-page landing pages with the addition of a blog.

To understand what it looks like, go to our main page () and click on all the links.

Everything will be clear at once. In this way, there will be an increase in site traffic, and there will be much more orders than with a classic multi-page site.

seo promotion

You can promote your site using or, it's fast and not difficult.

The problem is that as soon as you run out of budget, you will also run out of visitors to the site, therefore, there will be zero clients as well.

Therefore, if you are wondering how to increase site traffic in the long term and not by a little bit, then I propose to return to the basics, and specifically to the semantic core.

Important. I'm not saying that SEO is the only way to get people to your site. We'll discuss others as well. But to gain attendance, you need to start with this. Let's call this the foundation.

What is SEO? This is the optimization of your site for a search engine.

But I like an even simpler explanation, especially people who are not very versed in Internet marketing "squeak" from it.

This is when you enter the phrase you are interested in in any search engine, like Yandex or Google, for example, “Buy water in Moscow”, and you are given a list of sites that mention this phrase.

Yandex search results

The task of the seo and seo-specialist is to make your site appear at the very top of these answers.

At least in the TOP-10, and ideally in the TOP-3, because practically more than 85% of Internet users do not go beyond the first page.

There is even a joke among SEO specialists that the sites that appear in the search results after the 20th place belong to the series “God help them!”.

Important.If you want to set up advertising efficiently and save your budget, then I recommend the service promopult.ru ... In addition, it has goodies that will help increase conversions and attract more customers.

Semantic core

But SEO is a lot of work. It is based on the semantic core - these are the key / search queries that relate to your niche, and by which you will promote your site.

Just a little explanation. Each request has such a metric as frequency.

This is the number of people looking for this request every month. You can check them on the Yandex Wordstat website.

If the numbers you see do not tell you anything, then here is a small decryption (for young sites):

1. LF (low-frequency queries) - from 0 to 100 impressions per month;
2. MF (medium-frequency queries) - from 100 to 1,000 impressions per month;
3. HF (high-frequency requests) - from 1,000 to ... impressions per month.

It is faster and easier to get to the TOP in low frequency, in medium frequency, your site should be well optimized and have some traffic already.

You can enter the HF only after 2-3 years of work. When this moment comes, you will not even remember this material.

Bad news... One-page sites can be brought to the TOP-10 for no more than 5 key queries, and then provided that the queries are MF or LF.

And then we know seo-specialists who, in order to sell their services, tell the client “fairy tales of the Vienna woods” that they will bring the landing page to the TOP for 50-100 extremely competitive key queries.

Bottom line. At the first stage, think about how your company will think when you search for what your company is selling.

The clearer you take your search queries, the better the audience will be on your site. And a little trick for that. There is such a thing as operators. These are quotation marks on both sides of the phrase. An example is to buy water in Moscow.

26 786 are looking for this phrase. The problem is that these queries include a lot of unnecessary garbage.

If you look for it in the operators - “buy water in Moscow”, then you will see the real number of people who are looking exactly in such a phrase (one to one), and their real number is 67 people.

Selection of words

This is the magic. Otherwise, everyone looks at the statistics without quotes and then hold on to their heads. We used to be like that ourselves.

We took popular queries without quotes and wrote articles for them, but in the end it turned out that in reality no one was looking for this, and we just did our work in vain.

To find out that they worked in vain ... 0oo it hurts so much ...

actions

I understand perfectly well that you are already tired of reading about preparation. But I recommend that you start with the CEO.

And only then move on to other methods and actions that need to be performed to increase traffic to your site.

There are a lot of ways, but I will try to pay attention to the most comfortable and practical for companies and business in general. If you think that others should be included in this list, then write about it in the comments. Share your experience.

WE ARE ALREADY MORE THAN 29,000 people.
TURN ON

Free traffic

If you do not have anything useful on the resource, then people will not go to you. And doing it is stupid and almost ineffectual.

Blog. This is exactly what seo is done for and the semantic core is assembled. Your task is to regularly write articles on a specific topic and post them on your blog.

You can write both useful educational articles and reviews, test drives of your products. There are a lot of ideas, the main thing is to be searched for in search engines.

Life hack. You can find a topic in your niche that will be popular over time. While not many people are looking for it, the chance of reaching the TOP is very high.

And by the time they start actively looking for her, she will already be in the TOP. It happened with our article “”. When I wrote it, there were less than 200 requests, now more than 5 thousand people a month are looking for it.

Video channel. You start to drive your youtube channel... As practice has shown, this type of content marketing can bring quite tangible results in the form of customers.

For example, when a person decides to drill a well in his area, the first thing he does is go to search / YouTube to understand what is the difference between a sand well and an artesian well.

And one of the smart companies filmed a short one in which they tell the differences in 4-5 minutes and offer the client to order the drilling of this very well from them at a bargain price.

As a rule, the majority of users who are really interested in this service will turn to this competent company.

But if you really have good and useful material, then you can agree to place it in groups on your topic.

Partners. Do you have a lot of company friends? Ask them to make a newsletter or provide a link to your site at home.

But you need to realize that you need not just attendance, but orders. And if your partners have a different target audience, then it's stupid to do it (then it's easier and cheaper to use the Bosslike service).

It will just amuse your pride from the category. How to do it correctly, see the video below:

Paid traffic

Free traffic is good. But let's be realistic, the time has passed when the Internet was free, and there you could get hundreds of traffic for a smile.

Now money is needed to promote a business, albeit small, but necessary. After all, you are doing business, so there is nothing wrong with investing.

Buying external links. This is when you buy links on other sites that link not even to your site, but to a specific article.

If you have just traffic from links, then you need to buy them directly from the owners.

Yes, you can use specialized exchanges, but, as a rule, there are sites that are more suitable for increasing "authority" in the eyes of search engines, and not for getting high-quality traffic.

Contextual advertising. This is the most popular way to increase traffic to a young site quickly. And if you take into account the fact that these are hot clients who are looking for such hot requests as “price, buy” and so on, then in general, beauty.

And yes, don't forget about. After all, it is not the number of customers that is important to you, but orders from the site.

To do this, you will need the help of a specialist named. If you don't want a specialist, act on your own, but only after reading our 3 detailed articles.

Hello dear readers of the blog site. Today will not be ordinary, but guest post from one of them, in which he will talk about his experience of achieving this attendance mark. What was done? What was effective and what was not? All of this below.

Representatives Etxt try to maintain warm relations with their clients, so it is not surprising that one of them shared the history of the development of his Internet project. True for the money - since the exchange buys customer stories with payment up to $ 200 per story. So welcome 🙂

How did I increase my website traffic to 300 people a day?

"Just like you, when creating a new site, I faced a problem like zero attendance or lack of traffic. This issue is especially acute for young projects. Therefore, many of their owners start looking for resources on the Internet about" how to promote the site. "

I felt sorry for those people who spend hours studying various articles and videos, and I decided to reveal my secrets, which helped to increase the traffic on my site to 300 people per day. However, it so happened that when I was finishing writing this article, the attendance of my brainchild had already exceeded 500 unique visitors per day. Therefore, I ask you to read this article, and in the future, wait for the continuation, in which I will tell you how to increase site traffic to 500 visitors.

The first steps

The first thing I started with the promotion was to add the site to the most popular search engines - Yandex, Google. You can immediately forget about other search engines, because only Yandex and Google are in 90% of cases the sources of Russian-language traffic.

Then I added a link to my project to various site directories. The purpose of the links is to help the resource get indexed (many people think that this is not effective - well, this is my experience and my result). Thus, he will have a great chance that Yandex or Google will find and use your link. But this step did not bring results. All my counters and indicators remained unchanged. In addition, some of the custom registrations in the catalogs were dummies.

The next thing I took advantage of were thematic forums. After I found the forums I needed, I registered on them, filled out a profile and started posting. Then, having chosen the necessary topic, I left there a link to my site. I believe that it is enough to visit 15 forums. The main thing is that they are "live" and that external links are not closed to them by the nofollow tag. All these steps will bring you your first traffic.

Many people think that creating a website is the only thing that has to be done. But I assure you that the first six months will have to be given to the project entirely and free of charge. Almost all efforts will be in vain, due to the fact that the young resource will be blocked by the search engine by the sandbox filter, which immediately filters out empty and useless projects.

Site directories

A little later, I tried it myself, and when it didn't work out very well for me, I ordered a run through the site catalogs from the specialists. As a result, I got nothing, except that I wasted my time, and I threw money away. It turned out that almost all links (99%) were never indexed. And experts of this kind assured me that all sorts of indicators would increase for my resource and indexation would accelerate, although they themselves have projects with an attendance of only 15 people per day.

Social bookmarks

Then I decided to use the social bookmarking run. But as it turned out, about 80% of all social bookmarks were useless, empty. The rest of the bookmarks still gave links, but only Google accepts them, but Yandex for some reason does not index them.

Twitter

The first surprise for me was that from some Twitter accounts, links to my site began to seep into Yandex. Therefore, I advise you to take advantage of the capabilities of Twitter.

Article directories

I kept experimenting and decided to try using article directories. Overall, I was satisfied, but it took me a long time. Therefore, in order to save time and effort, I advise you to use a paid service that will allow you to publish your article on almost any site.

Links in profiles on trust forums

At one point, I learned that it is possible to promote a site using links in user profiles on trust forums. I immediately ordered a run. The result was not long in coming: after two weeks I already felt it, and just 1 month later, the Yandex search engine recorded popularity of 1,000 mentions. However, after some time, Yandex begins to clean up its index system, as a result of which your mention rates stabilize and acquire their own range. For example, after a month, my popularity metrics stably ranged from 200 to 250 mentions. Therefore, I advise everyone to this method of increasing site traffic.

Answer services

A little later, I also stumbled upon another way to promote the site on the Internet - a response service in Google, Mail.ru, etc. As a result, I was disappointed in it. After killing a lot of time, I received penalty points from the moderators, and my responses turned out to be "spam" and were removed from the system. I still did not understand what the problem was, because I answered only after the fact, and all the answers were written by me personally without using templates.

What is the secret of traffic growth? Internal linking and regularly updated content

After I created my site on my own, I had no idea how to promote it and what filters mean. Therefore, in the first year of the life of my resource, its popularity grew very slowly (70-100 people per day). As it turned out, it's all about filters that block new projects and throw them out of search engines.

But I found one way for you to get around them. Since my domain was young and without history, I advise you to purchase a domain with history at any of the auctions. Then your site will gain traffic much faster.

rice. Shown a slow growth in traffic with a small site update

Such a domain will cost you about 10-15 dollars.

But then I got tired of it, and I decided to radically change the situation. I started writing about 15 articles a month (about 4 articles a week). Then I ordered articles on low-frequency queries (from 100 to 300 queries per month). I ordered texts from the gods of content, as they specialize in texts to increase traffic. And only from them I found stories of clients, who also received 300-500 people per day in 4-5 months.

A little later, when there were 50 published articles on my site, I started using internal linking. I started using Wikipedia, as it is what I think is the best at using internal linking.

My Iron Formula of Website Traffic Growth

If we combine everything into one and derive some kind of efficiency formula, then it will look like this:

1. High quality and good content. Helped me with this Etxt .
2. Constant updating and replenishment of content.
3. Analyze and identify the correct (i.e. low-frequency) queries for writing articles.
4. I advise beginners to read this book: "15 tips on how to order texts for a significant increase in website traffic."
5. I advise the text size to be 2500-3500 characters - they will collect more users and lower numbers for you.

How to allocate time to increase traffic?

1. It takes 30% of the time to choose the right keywords and topics for articles. As a rule, this takes from half an hour to 2 hours. Over time, I started ordering this service from Etxt... For a small fee, you can contact them via Skype, and they will help you find keywords and suggest a topic if you are lazy.
2. 30% of the time is spent writing articles. One article is 1 or 2 hours. This is, of course, if you write yourself. There is another way: spend 2 minutes ordering, and the article will be ready. Your site is profitable, since you have good traffic, and the traffic is increased by just such articles 🙂
3. 30% of the time is spent on the publication and design of articles. About an hour to two hours if you do it yourself.
4. 10% is all sorts of little things that follow you during the process.

So now about the costs.

300 people / day = 3 hours * 70 articles (average time to create one article multiplied by the number of articles required) = 210 hours (2-4 months of work). For about three months, you will need to acquire 50 articles. For each month you will spend from 60 to 90 dollars on texts, as a result the traffic to your site will grow very rapidly.

Do not think that this is a lot, because the income from it will exceed many times the costs that go to maintain it. Only a little time will pass, and you will see for yourself. This investment of money becomes a good additional income for many people, because the site can generate income for years.

rice. Dependence of the number of users on the frequency of site updates

Once you get this system in place, results will come very quickly. On my personal example, you can follow how the traffic to my site grew: texts to increase traffic from God’s content + internal linking + good keywords + regular resource update.

rice. Active growth began after frequent site updates.

rice. General information about the site

I also recommend the laziness killer program from Etxt - it helped me achieve a good result, especially with my strong webmaster laziness.

It is possible that this bourgeois vision of successful blog promotion will be useful to you (the author of the most popular blog on SEO in the bourgeoisie):

If you or you have created a website, this does not mean that a stream of potential customers will immediately rush to you. In order for this to happen, you need to work hard. Below you will learn how to increase website traffic with your own hands in the most popular ways, even if you just created it and do not understand at all which side to approach.

But first, you will understand the goals and objectives that the site can perform, and for what reasons people do not come to your site.

You will learn how to lay the foundation of the foundations - the foundation of the site, without which there is no point in moving on.

And get free and paid ways to increase your visitor numbers.

Goals and objectives of the site

Recently I was approached by a girl - a young specialist in setting up advertising in Yandex. I suggested setting up advertising on the site. Previously, I offered to analyze my site for readiness to set up advertising.

I was a little surprised, and now you will understand why.

Two days later, she sent a website analysis report with recommendations for correcting errors in her opinion, as a specialist.

I read the report and was already surprised, as they say in an adult way.

And such "specialists" are now a dime a dozen.

So that you do not get into a mess with your site, first decide on the goals for which you created the site, unless, of course, you set them before creating the site.

Popular site goals

1. Company / enterprise / business website
   • receiving applications
   • advertising your products
2. Freelancer - for making money
   • sale of partner products
   • earnings on advertising
   • selling your goods or services
3. Non-profit organization
   • charity
   • attracting people to your ranks
   • advertising of its activities

I repeat - before increasing the site traffic - decide on the goal.

The next question is tasks which the site should perform. Which type of site is right for you depends on the tasks you perform.

• one-page website (landing page)- great for sales, collecting applications and building a client base;
• multi-page company website- shaping the company's image, attracting visitors, advertising products, collecting applications;
• online store- sale of goods;
• blog- attracting visitors with the subsequent sale and collection of applications;
• universal forms- multi-page landing page with a blog, etc.

The promotion strategy (increasing site traffic) will directly depend on what goals and objectives you set for your site.

Reasons for low traffic to your site

A website has been created for you or you have created a website using the article.

We filled it with important, at least it seems to you, information, registered contacts, even made a call to action - call someone by phone and ...

Remember, as in the song - "and in response there is silence ...", there is nothing, no calls, no visitors.

Where are they all? Let's look at the reasons why this is possible.

Internal reasons

• Design- so repulsive that the visitor, upon seeing, immediately closes;
• Lack of mobile version- people are switching to smartphones en masse, so the mobile version is not only what it should be. It also needs to be user-friendly;
• Outside advertising- and this, in my opinion, is the disease of the century. Have you noticed - you go to the site and ... because of various banners, pop-up windows, self-replicating advertising videos, it is impossible to read / view information and this scares off not only you, but also your visitors;
• Inconvenience of using the site- presence and location of buttons, links and pages;
• Various technical errors;

External causes

• Nobody knows about your site- many entrepreneurs who start their activities on the Internet think that the main thing is to create a website and ... that's all - success is guaranteed. Unfortunately, this is far from the case. In order for the site to be seen by your potential customers, you need to get it on the first lines in search engines for key queries. How to do it - read on.
• Your site does not have a short page description (snippet) in search results- or is it a disgusting description; (Snippet picture)
• Your site is loading slowly- now is the age of speeds and the visitor will not sit and wait for your site to load, close the window and go to another;
• Antivirus- warns of a potential threat or virus attack on the site.

Until you fix these errors, it is not worth promoting the site, it will not work.

Lay the Foundation - Prepare Your Site to Receive Visitors

If you are a fan of youth business trainings or similar companies, then you can skip this part of the article. But if you have come to the Internet for a long time and get your share of the money, read carefully and lay the foundation for increasing site traffic.

This foundation is SEO marketing and the semantic core of your website.

What is this seo? - you ask - and why do we need it at all?

In simple words, when you need to find important information, you write in Yandex search what you need to find and get a list of tens of thousands of pages - this list is called seo results.

As in building a house, you need to start with the foundation, so in recruiting visitors to your site, you need to start with seo.

The basis of the site begins with the compilation of the semantic core.

Semantic core

You know, when I first heard about the semantic core, I thought it was some kind of ball filled with the necessary information. Its specially trained people - seo-specialists, somehow put it inside the site and voila ... you don't need to do anything else, your site is in the TOP-10 of search.

It's good that I didn't tell anyone about this, I can imagine how they would laugh at me.

But now I am already a little more literate, so I know that the semantic core is a set of all search key queries by which the site will be promoted.

How to start building a semantic core?

And you need to start by studying your target audience.

How to increase website traffic with your own hands - the most popular ways

Let's move on to the main thing, which is why you started reading this article popular ways to promote your site.

Free ways

I'll start with the free ones.

The first place is deservedly content marketing, especially since you have already prepared the ground for this - you have laid the foundation in the form of a semantic core.

Now you need to do blog and regularly write, yourself or hire a copywriter, articles on those key queries that you picked up earlier.

You can write articles:

• information
• teaching
• reviews
• test drives
• adventures of your products in the vast
• the main thing is to follow one rule - 1 request - 1 article.

Affiliate Marketing (Cross Marketing)

Attract partners with a similar target audience for mutual PR.

Another free way to attract visitors from social networks, you don't even need to create groups for this, use strangers.

• Build a list of outgroups with similar target audiences.
• Write a great useful material - a post, an article in which there must be a link to your site.
• Offer to publish news in each group - there is such a button "suggest news".
• The rule of large numbers will work here, the more you offer, the more likely your news will be posted and visitors will come to you.

Create your own YouTube channel and post videos with interesting information. Of course, it is better that this is unique content, but in principle you can duplicate your articles in a video format, the main thing is that it is interesting to your target audience.

By the way, YouTube search is no less popular than Yandex or Google. And according to some indicators, your videos can significantly outrun the readability of articles on the site in terms of views.

Email Marketing

Some people say that email marketing is dead, that it has been supplanted by social media and instant messengers, but it works and will still be useful. With proper setup of the mailing list, this tool brings its 15-25% of visitors to the site.

Webinars and Seminars

If you already host webinars and / or seminars, take a couple of minutes to advertise your site. If you haven't done it yet, it's time to think about it and start.

Well, as an addition, when you have a website - information about it should be on all your advertising and information media.

Paid ways to increase website traffic with your own hands

In addition to the free ones, there are also paid methods.

It makes it possible to increase traffic in a short time, but for money. Works in the same plane as search queries.

You may have noticed that the first 3 - maximum 4 lines on the search page are advertising.

A very popular method for increasing website traffic.

• time - works almost instantly and you immediately see what works and what doesn't.
• you can select the target audience for narrow indicators
• pay per clicks - follow the link to the site
• statistics - you can evaluate the work of both the entire advertising company and an individual ad.

• confusion - if you are not an expert, then either you will not be able to set up yourself or you will waste money, but you will not get the result;
• cost per click - it can be expensive and your competitor can always pay more than you, in which case visitors will go to his site, and not to you;
• works as long as you pay, as soon as the money on the account of the advertising company has run out, the flow of visitors immediately disappears.

In terms of its characteristics, it is akin to the contextual one, it only attracts visitors from social networks.

Has almost the same pros and cons. The only thing is easier to configure, or maybe it seemed to me so - you can try to configure it yourself.

The main thing is that your target audience is on this social network and responds.

It works better during various promotions - a day of discounts, a night of sales, etc. The pros and cons are almost the same as for contextual and targeted. But for customization it is better to hire a specialist.

Purchase and placement of external links

There are special exchanges for buying and selling links, but it is better to buy directly from the site owner.

For a fee, a popular person posts a post on his page or in a group for a certain period, usually a day.

Instagram and YouTube channels are especially popular, but you can negotiate on any social network.

Black and gray methods of increasing website traffic

Above, I looked at how to increase website traffic with your own hands using the right methods, but there are also so-called black and gray methods. You will find out anyway, let it be better from me and them you do not need to apply at any time, whatever you and whoever speaks to you.

Adding a site to various directories

Attendance boost programs

Your site will be listed as unscrupulous, and it disappears from the search. Getting it back is pretty difficult.

Something that is visible only to search engines, but not visible to ordinary visitors. These can be links or text that is hidden behind pictures or written in color that blends with the background.

Considered spam.

Spamming keywords

There are careless seo specialists who senselessly insert a lot of keywords into the text. As a result, the text is unreadable.

Using attractive titles that are not relevant to the topic of the article

The headline attracts visitors, they go to your site, and there is a completely different text written there.

From this article, you can learn how to increase your traffic!

If you have a site and you understand that it does not have as much traffic as you would like, then first of all it is worth checking the site for filters from search engines.

As you know, search engines filter search results, and do not admit (or rank low) in the results of sites that in their opinion are of low quality.

It is reasonable…

Your site may be of high quality, but even quality sites are not immune to filtering.

Unfortunately, not all filters from PS can be diagnosed.

First, take a look at the statistics - see which traffic bandwidth is less - perhaps it was that traffic network that applied the filter to your site. A clear sign of filters is a significant difference in traffic.

That is, the traffic from Yandex and Google should be approximately the same.
Remember, maybe you did some runs, maybe there are over-optimized articles on the site, etc. Actually, all this needs to be compared and try to exclude the cause.

If we consider other reasons for low traffic, then there may be a problem in insufficient optimization of articles, insufficient information content, in incorrect formatting of articles.

If you think that at the moment you are doing everything right, and your goal is to increase traffic, then there are several rules that must be followed.

1. Regular and frequent publication of articles
2. Informative, optimized articles

If you regularly publish optimized and interesting articles, then your traffic will grow rapidly.

So how do you get more traffic?

Options for increasing traffic

The information is addressed to those Internet workers who do not constantly work on their blog, write, try, spending literally every free minute on it, and count visitors on one hand.

The reason here, as a rule, is not at all that what you have done is not interesting to the readers.

Everything is simpler and much worse: they simply do not know about your blog.

When, after several months of silence, you can no longer physically see the numbers from the top ten on your counter, the thought of how to increase traffic becomes an obsession.

You analyze blogs with high traffic, read articles exclusively on this topic, but all this, taking a lot of time and effort, does not bring the desired results. What to do?

Ways to Increase Traffic - Pay or Not Pay?

There are several ways to get off the ground and somehow increase traffic and, at first glance, they all have quite optimistic prospects.

First, let's just mark the main ones - paid and free.

Of the free ones, these are:

1. Placing post announcements on various services such as Subscribe or PostPR
2. Commenting on other people's blogs, forums
3. Active participation in the life of social networks
4. Link exchange with blogs of similar topics.

In fact, the traffic from these events is not so large and very unstable, but since publishing articles daily is simply an impossible task for a blogger (especially in summer), and it makes sense to post announcements only after the article is indexed by search engines, it turns out - every 3 For 4 days you have some kind of stirring on your blog, after which - a quiet hour of the day for three.

To be honest, for a long time I suspected that something was wrong with me: I was announcing incorrectly, commenting in the wrong way, writing, in the end, not so.

But, if you pay attention to the attendance counters on other resources, the picture is clear: on excellent blogs, where the design and content are more than worthy, daily traffic fluctuates somewhere around 40 people, or even less.

Paid ways to increase traffic are mostly purchased links and directory runs.

Once, having weighed my financial capabilities, I decided to finally delve into this topic, but from the numerous publications I understood only one thing: to go to services for selling links, just holding a certain amount of money in my fist is a meaningless option.

You can easily run into a dishonest "salesperson" who can easily fool around, and it’s good if you don’t appear before the menacing eyes of Yandex.

They write a lot about this, but, as a rule, experienced people do not skimp on warnings, but there are not many such recommendations on the Internet to explain clearly how to avoid these annoying mistakes.

And then, finally, the day comes when you clearly understand: it can't go on like this - the silence on the blog got it! And slowly you start looking for bypass routes, all sorts of services and communities for recruiting visitors to the blog. Moreover, perfectly understanding all the stupidity of what is happening, you still climb and hope, once again confirming the simple idea that your soul is also darkness. To be honest, I have already tried several of these options for increasing traffic, and today I will try to show you the wrong side of everything that happens in them.

The article was written solely so that you do not indulge yourself in vain hopes, at least in general terms, presenting possible prospects.

Community of like-minded people - running in a circle

So my first experience of this kind is just a spontaneous community. Here I contracted to a company of newcomers who were not spoiled by traffic, who made a solemn vow to visit each other every day, leave comments and likes, and thus increase traffic, of course, only by the number of participants in the experiment.

This idea is not new, from the category of "do not wash, so by rolling", and the compelled comments left from the very beginning began to seem to me a frank mockery.

If I myself somehow analyzed what I had read and gave a completely meaningful comment, then in response I received something like “Excellent article! Interesting!

Great!". And it became to me, to be honest, disgusting to the point.

Blog traffic has increased by exactly the number of "accomplices" - that's a reason for joy!

So I left this hastily put together team quickly enough, although the result of the first week, according to its organizer, exceeded all expectations: as the saying goes, “it’s hard to bear the four of us.” I don’t know, I had nothing to carry.

Now you know how to increase traffic with the help of a community of like-minded people. In short - it doesn't make any sense!

Timur and his team - HelpMyBlog (Project closed)

The second way I tried to increase traffic is to register on the HelpMyBlog service, which no longer exists. Actually, the fact that it is no longer there, and another site is already on this domain, speaks of itself!

Again, this was the idea of ​​a second hend, but it was implemented competently, if only because it did not involve the opening and immediate closure of someone else's resource, but rather close communication with it, analysis of published articles with the subsequent recommendation of them to their audience.

It was a very real help in promotion, but, as they say, nobody canceled the fly in the ointment even in the most hopeful project.

And the point is this.

Since the need for support is mainly experienced by young blogs, and there was absolutely nothing for the promoted and proven ones to do there, the level of participants in this project is approximately the same.

Of course, if your blog topic is fairly neutral, you will have something to read on similar newbie blogs.

Well, if the topic of the resource is the blogosphere, will your interest in publications of a counterpart of a similar level be so sincere?

After all, in order to blog about a blog, you need to constantly learn, and such a heavy waste of time very soon begins to strain.

By the way, literally a week after my registration, the creators of HelpMyBlog made significant adjustments to it: from the interface to the very principle of providing support.

It turned out to be not so easy to delve into the updated version, as evidenced by the numerous questions asked by the service members in the comments.

And since all these "go there - I don't know where" are not my strong point at all, I postponed participation in it for an indefinite time.

And it turned out that the time has come when the project simply closed. Now it has become 100% obvious that such a promotion model is no good.

Did you order an avalanche? (Project not available)

Unfortunately (or fortunately) the project is not available at the moment, but there will always be many copies that you should be aware of.

Now about the FreeAvalanche project, in the Russian version, as they say, modestly and without pretensions - an avalanche of free traffic.

The attendance at it was more than 3 thousand people. Participation in the project is free, although no, there were two paid services to which, if you want, subscribe, but if you don't want to - no one will be forced.

The whole system was built according to the MLM principle, i.e. on inviting new members, with the only difference that you don’t invest and you don’t sell anything.

The constant increase in the number of people wishing to get caught in an avalanche was necessary in order for the traffic they generate to really be tangible enough, since the more nudges, the faster you move.

So, at this stage, everything is fine. After registering for FreeAvalanche, I went to bed in anticipation of a tremendous change. However, the first thought that came to my mind in the morning - why do I need such visitors?

The fact is that the proposed scenario of the necessary actions of the participants causes some bewilderment. When you follow a link to someone else's site, you must wait until the system generates a code to confirm your presence on it and insert it into a specific form, and this process takes only ... 15 seconds.

If we consider that a visitor is considered to have been on the site for at least a minute, then I can’t make ends meet here.

Well, let it take another 5 seconds to copy the code and close the site - it's still only 20 seconds on the blog. And what is a visitor in the eyes of a search engine?

Refusal, which will turn the indicator of your behavioral factor into a trash heap. I really wanted to ask the founder of the service, Mr. Tatarkin - does he not know about this?

Or is there some trick that is simply not spoken about, transforming those 15 seconds into something more weighty?

If you ever find yourself on such services, then you will know all the ins and outs, and understand that you should not use them!

Since visitors to your blog will be targeted (when registering, you will indicate the category your blog belongs to), it may well seem that this is the solution to the problem of increasing traffic.

But, it's one thing when a person comes to you in search of specific information. In this case, having got to the main page, he already estimates how interesting this resource is to him and then either closes it or delves into the details.

Here, a person is initially aimed at one simple action - to copy the code, and the hope that he will go somewhere there is practically zero.

I myself have been on the proposed blogs for exactly as long as it took to generate the code, and only then I realized how I punished these absolutely innocent resources (except for stupidity).

The promised indicators, with rare exceptions, will remain just numbers on your counter, the hope that they will turn into regular visitors and subscribers is negligible.

So the difference between such projects and participation in the community described above in the article is not large: in the first case, uninterested visitors came to your blog (20 souls), and after a given time they left.

In the case of FreeAvalanche and other similar services, it is even better: they came, "slandered" you in the eyes of search engines, and left too. And what, excuse me, is the point?

Looking at the counter, amuse your vanity?

This was an example! Such services will always be on the network, as there will always be newbies who do not know how to increase traffic. I do not want to search for such services now, but you should have got the essence. Don't fall for the bait - search robots, although they are robots, understand everything.

So, the conclusion suggests itself: "be afraid of the Danes who bring gifts."

Having even a little experience of participating in such projects, I was absolutely convinced of one thing: all of them are created for the purpose of personal promotion of the "benefactor", and good fellows if they manage to arrange it not as frankly as the creator of the aforementioned project with his 15 seconds.

By the way, regarding the previously existing support service HelpMyBlog, I don't want to be so categorical, since here the emphasis was on the analysis of the supported resource, and such frank schemes were not used: entered - left.

By the way, not all bloggers are so sensitive to the topic of increasing traffic.

There are those for whom the problem of low attendance seems to be far-fetched. The lack of activity on the blog does not bother them in any way, the impossibility of earning money does not inspire despondency, and ambition does not push them in the back, forcing them to periodically do outright stupid things.

"It's very difficult to lead us astray, we don't give a fuck where to go." Well, if not for ... not all the same?

After all, this is not only and not so much about making money - the repeatedly repeated slogan Site for People (SDL) already presupposes the presence of visitors on it, otherwise it will be an SDSL website - a Site for yourself, your beloved, and you will get tired of running it quickly enough.

And even if your friends and relatives add to the number of people who have appreciated the result of your work, does it change anything?

Well, if, in which I am almost sure, most of the recommendations converge on buying links, and you are not new to this business - tell me how not to become another Pinocchio by simply burying a certain amount of money on the exchange?

How to increase traffic: the right approach

A couple more tips on increasing the number of visitors to your sites, I think, will not be superfluous, although I am not chasing traffic, I just make good sites for people, but I have accumulated a few thoughts on this issue on how to increase traffic.

First, you need to figure out a little what kind of traffic exists.

The traffic should be divided immediately into:

• Poor quality (these are visitors from various ATS of affiliate programs, various traffic cheaters and just visitors who hang out on the network in search of entertainment).
• High-quality (traffic from search engines, just interested visitors).

Of course, we strive to get quality visitors, and this is a rather difficult task. If you just need to increase traffic, then for ten rubles on the seosprint website you can buy a lot of people.

Once I sinned with this, but I realized that this was a dead-end path.

So, to get high-quality traffic, the first thing you need to write or order from a professional is excellent texts that are written according to the laws of SEO-optimization.

Do not under any circumstances steal materials from other sites, all this will end very badly, and getting awesome traffic will be delayed for a long time.

Nobody knows exactly what the optimal size of the article should be, but they start from the figure of 4-6 thousand characters, although if you logically approach this issue, then it is clear that the main thing is a well-disclosed topic and not the length of the article.

Do not forget that the initial promotion is based on low-frequency requests, so to speak, this is the first step in attracting traffic.

Traffic can also be received simply by buying it

That is, to buy thematic visitors, it is better to do this when you sell some kind of product, it can be even more effective than website promotion, since the process is fast and you almost immediately start making a profit.

That is, a competent text that will convince you to make a purchase.

All the rest are either resellers or are already selling second-rate traffic.

Of course, such traffic costs VERY good money, but as already mentioned, if you sell a product, then these investments quickly pay off.

The third way to get traffic is to buy perpetual links.

There is such a cool article exchange like MIRALINKS. With its help, we do two things at once. And we write an article with links to our site placed in it, which has a positive effect on promotion, and we get traffic.

But to get traffic, the article must be placed on a good thematic, visited site, then you can expect traffic from it and, as a bonus, an increase in the TIC.

Articles in the Miralinks exchange are called "eternal", which means that the links are also eternal.

Social networks

The next method of getting traffic, and we can say the last of those that I know, is the use of promotion on social networks.

Almost 90 percent of webmasters use it. Social networks have a very significant impact on hit counters, with the right approach.

By the way, there are special services that help with this. If you have a Twitter account with a large number of subscribers, then you will have a lot of visitors, otherwise you need to write at least one article a day, and an interesting article, and post announcements of these articles wherever possible. Article announcements will also have a positive effect on the indexing of the site by search engines.

However, each announcement must be unique.

How to increase traffic to your website with new content

Anyone, even a non-professional SEO, knows that high traffic to a site is guaranteed only if it is filled with high-quality content.

If you know how to get more traffic without it, then that's great! 🙂 Perhaps you can tell us about it in the comments?

Uniqueness, relevance and constant updating of information - these are the "three pillars" on which the success of any site rests, no matter how commonplace it may seem.

The most convenient way to search for new material for the site is on article exchanges.

But we must remember that your site is no exception, and sooner or later the article you post will cease to be relevant, it will appear on dozens of other Internet resources.

What needs to be done to make your site come to the fore, how to ensure its traffic and information uniqueness?

Of course, the guarantee of the uniqueness of the resource will be articles written by yourself.

Search engines show such articles in the first place, which guarantees traffic to your site, as well as attracting a new audience.

What can you do to ensure that writing your own articles does not become an insoluble problem for you?

• Naturally, the easiest way is to write about a topic that interests you personally.
• Getting started, you should have a good idea of ​​what the future article will be about.
• Even better, if you have information that can really surprise the reader.
• Well, if the subject of the article is your "strong point", then it will be successful.

It's better to start with a draft article, at this stage you shouldn't worry too much about how its final version will look.

This is a blank, and the main thing in it is the material presented.

It makes sense to start editing an article only when the draft is complete.

After writing and publishing several articles, you will understand the mechanisms of work on creating and promoting content, and you can easily make sites useful for users and in demand for search engines.
