Attracting More People To Your Web Site
1. Give people a free subscription to your e-zine. Almost
everyone is publishing a e-zine nowadays so it's important to
give something extra with the free subscription. You could offer
a free gift or advertising when people subscribe. 2. Provide
your visitors with free content. Your content will be more
attractive to your visitors if it's up-to-date or original. You
could also offer people the option to reprint the content in
their e-zine or web site.
3. Offer a free online directory. The directory could be full of
interesting ebooks, e-zines, web sites etc. If people find your
directory to be a valuable resource they will visit it over and
over. 4. Give your visitors a free ebook. You could also include
your own ad in the ebook and allow other people to give it away.
If you don't want to take the time to write one, you could ask
other writers permission to use their articles. 5. Hold free
online classes or seminars. They could be held in your web
site's chat room. The idea of "live" information will definitely
entice people to visit your web site. You will become known as
an expert on the topic. 6. Give visitors a free entry into your
contest or sweepstakes. The prizes should be something of
interest or value to your visitors. Most people who enter will
continually revisit your web site to get the results. 7. Let
visitors download free software. It could be freeware,
shareware, demos etc. You could even turn part of your site into
a free software directory. If you created the software, include
your ad inside and let other people give it away. 8. Offer free
online services or utilities from your web site. They could be
search engine submitting, copy writing proofreading etc. The
service or utility should be helpful to your target audience. 9.
Give free consulting to people who visit your web site. You
could offer your knowledge via e-mail or by telephone. People
will consider this a huge value because consulting fees can be
very expensive. 10. Give your visitors a free membership to your
online club. People want to belong to something, why not your
online club. You could also give away a free e-zine for club
members only.
