 You can build a website but unless you know how to bring traffic to that site, you will fail. In fact, it’s the number one reason why those that are website beginners fail. You don’t need tricks to get the traffic; you just need proven techniques that will ensure you not only get tons of traffic, but that you get traffic that’s targeted. After all, it doesn’t help you if you have thousands of visitors a day that are looking to buy hammers and you are selling dresses. So, here are 3 Ways to Build Up a Website of Targeted Traffic:
#1 Create Content That’s Valuable If you place content on your website that is interesting, engaging, and worthy of the time it takes for your visitor to read it, you’ll get traffic. You need to provide value and when you do this in a manner that is genuine, that traffic will flow, and you will get what your site needs to be a success. The content you place on your site should be relevant to the products or services you are offering. Think about what it is you want to share with people and what type of an effect do you want to have on them. Your goal might be to change the way people think about a particular product or it might be to get them to take action about a particular service. When you take the time to focus on providing real value you’ll be rewarded with relevant traffic that grows and builds. #2 Make Sure Your Content is Original You do not want to borrow content from other sites, even with their permission, because that’s just the same information going around and around. There’s nothing there to entice surfers to visit your site as they likely already saw that same content. You also don’t want content that’s been “spun,” which means it's been taken from somewhere on the web, ran through some software, and produced what appears to be new content because of a few changes, but really is still the same old information going around and around again. What you want is fresh, new content that’s written from scratch by a quality writer. If that person isn’t you, then hire a writer. You can do this for a very affordable price. You want to make sure that even if you are presenting the same basic information that you do it in a manner that leaves your visitor feeling like they learned something new. #3 Create Content That’s Timeless What this means is the content you write today should be relevant a month from now, a year from now, even a number of years from now. When you do this, you create the greatest value for your website and you also reduce the amount of work your site needs because the content doesn’t have to be constantly replaced because it has become old. These three main points will help you get your website on track right from the beginning.

I think that no matter what you use to build your website, if you don't have good content, you won't be able to grow it. It's a mistake a lot of people make, thinking that they can be bloggers and earn money from it, not knowing how much work creating valuable content involves. 7/6/2018 09:48:51 am
I never thought about the last one, thank you for reminding me that! I think everything that you mentioned is totally true. Especially the part being original. :D 7/6/2018 02:01:03 pm

I was on a thread and read where someone wanted to know how much content was ok to copy. I wanted to crawl out of the computer. NONE! Ugh. 7/6/2018 08:29:11 pm
Great post! It's so important to have original content. I notice this on social media as well. You can post a lot of content that's been done before and get a few hits, or you can occasionally post great original stuff and get a lot more hits. 7/6/2018 08:55:38 pm
Great tips & especially liked how you called evergreen content "timeless" as that's more descriptive about what it really means ... 7/7/2018 01:11:49 am

These are really great tips for people who are just starting out their business or blog. 7/7/2018 05:01:38 pm
Creating timeless content is key to being in it for the long haul. To this day, some of my most popular pieces are not ones that went viral and then faded out of the spot light. 7/8/2018 03:27:26 am
These three points are excellent. Creating original content that fits yout niche is the way forward. A good engagement with the audience and clear writing skills, punctuation and grammer are of equal importance. 7/8/2018 10:32:08 am
Valuable and original are essential things if you want to get the kind of traffic that will keep coming back to your site. Some of the content should be timeless for sure. But others can be more current. A good mix helps.
