Traffic Strategy #1: Create Amazing, Share-Worthy Content
● If you want people to come to your website, you need to give them a reason to come. You need to create awesome content that attracts people and that they feel compelled to share with others. If you simply post short, uninspired articles, you’re not giving people much reason to come to your site or share your content.
● For your best results, consider how you’re going to stand out from the crowd. How can you create content in a way that differentiates you from everyone else?
● The best way to stand out from the crowd is to create highly valuable, in-depth content. Content that answers people’s questions and speaks to their pain points. Content that addresses a subject on a much deeper level than anything else out there.
● When creating content, ask yourself these questions:
○ Would I want to read this content?
○ Does this add value to my readers?
○ Is this share-worthy?
○ Is this different from all the other content that’s being produced?
○ Does this content answer the reader’s questions?
○ Does it speak the reader’s pain points?
● If you create great content, the rest of your promotional tactics become that much easier. Your content will practically promote itself when people see how valuable it is. People want to share content that is valuable and if you create valuable content, others will promote it for you.
