How to Drive Traffic to Your Website

Anyone who is a writer and or is trying to make money online knows that the key to doing so is website traffic. It took me a while to figure out how to get people to visit my various websites, but now that I have I'm finding that there are several ways you can do so.

1. Take advantage of pinging when it comes to your Associated Content Producer Page, and your blogs. Pinging lets all the blog services know that you have updated your pages, and helps gets your pages listed in the search engines. My favorite pinging service is Pingoat.

2. Bookmark your articles, blogs, and websites. This is another way to get listed by the search engines and help others find your articles, blogs and websites. One very cool way to do this that I have found and which will save you loads of time is onlywire.com. This website allows you to use multiple bookmarking services at one time. It is one of the easiest websites to use and I saw my traffic go up exponentially when I used them. When you sign up with them you then have to go and sign up for whichever bookmarking services you want to. Then onlywire saves all your passwords and you place a link under your Links section in your My Favorites section that you can click on whenever you are on a website that you want bookmarked. It is then bookmarked to all the services you signed up.

3. If you have more than one website that is related, post reciprocal links on your related websites. For example, I have an author's website for my romance books, and I have a link on the front page of that website for my Associated Content Producer page. However, I do not do reciprocal linking between my Paid Online Opportunities blog and my author's website. I like to keep these two parts separate, mainly because each one really doesn't relate to the other.
