1. You need to have a Blog; a Blog is a website filled with information, and it is written in an informal fashion, like a diary.  This that you are reading right now, is a perfect example of a blog.  This is talking about something that my client would benefit from, or would be interested in.  Having a blog enables you to have more traffic to your website, and also allows you to build your brand (and get more sales).  If you have a blog it is easier for people to find you on search engines and thus; more people will visit your website.
2. Have a social media presence; Instagram, Facebook, twitter, Tumblr, and Pinterest, to name a few, are some of the most popular social media sites around today.  Having a social media presence is paramount in generating more traffic to your website, as you are able to build a brand through your posts.  This also helps you in connecting with people who visit your website.  This does however, require installation of the pixel into the website code.
3. Making a Youtube channel; Youtube is currently the 3rd largest website in the world. Having a YouTube channel can help you increase your traffic to your website, simply because you can post videos that relate to your brand, while offering the link to your website below the video.  YouTube channels appeal to millennials and younger demographics, so there’s that bonus.  Plus, it’s quite easy to make YouTube videos.  All you need is good content, a decent camera, and a bright smile.  Your website will definitely get more traffic, which is why video has become one of the most popular ways to do internet marketing.
4. Starting a Podcast; if you’re shy on camera, you can start a podcast.  A podcast is your own radio show that you record, and then can list for download for your listeners and subscribers.  Most business owners that take this approach use the podcast to talk about issues that matter to their customer base, and use it to promote a brand at the same time.  You can provide a link to your website so that the listeners can access it.
5. Leveraging the Analytics; to reach a certain goal, one must plan and have a record of how he/she is going to reach that goal.  Analytics, which is the simply the analysis of data, can be done on your website.  This will show the demographics of how your visitors behave on your website, and can be used to further optimize your website to better suit your customer.  Google Analytics is a free tool that can enable you to do just that.

 
So there you have it.  If you employ these tips on your website, you are guaranteed to have more traffic.  In otherwords, you will have “MORE business, for YOUR business.”
