Using Free Content to Keep Visitors Interested!
If you don't want people to loose interest in your website
quickly then you will have to spend some time focusing on your
content. Unless you offer a service(such as web design or
webhosting ect...) your audience will demand that there be new
content updated every day for them or they will stop returning
to your website. The truth is that to offer your visitors an
abundance of great material is actually very easy and best yet
it is free. Your site will double in value and usability when
you start updating your content each day. Trust me when I say
"your visitors will thank you for it".
By searching online you can easily find a wide range of websites
that offer free information you can include on your website. The
best yet is that the topics range from A-Z, so you never have to
worry about not being able to find content for your website.
Another great resource that you can find out there are free
ecourses as well as free ebooks. The great thing is that you can
use these free ecourses/ebooks(make sure to email each site to
gain permission just to be safe) as an incentive to visitors to
use your website. This will not only increase your websites
content base but will give a real value to your website as it
will become a known source of useful information.
As you add free content to your website keep in mind who will
view it and who will use it. Make sure to cover a broad range of
subjects but also direct the content according to what your
website is about. Try to make your content as meaningful as you
can and you will have visitors coming back each day to view what
is new on your website. Best yet they will start to tell their
friends and their friends will tell their friends ect.... Before
you know it, by adding free content sections to your site you
will have more and more people visiting your website. It is
simple as that. We have all done it before where we've found a
useful website and emailed the link to our friend. Why did we
email the link you might ask? We've emailed the link because we
found the content on the website to be useful/worth while. You
can have people doing the same with your website.
Just remember to watch the content you put on your site and to
make sure it is of use to your visitors. Your content will truly
determined if your visitors are being entertained/interested and
if they will come back for more.
