TDC Day 15 – About Traffic

Starting to look at how to get traffic:

• You want your site to be indexed in Google, because 50% of search traffic goes through Google.
• Black hat strategies do not provide real value to the searcher – better to use white hat strategies.
• A new web site has no reputation or trust, so a new ‘money site’ will not be attractive to Google

To start getting traffic to a new web site you need association with:

1) a site that is liked by Google, has user generated content, tagging, and will link to you (sounds like a Web 2.0 site to me!) – postnote: looks like its Tumblr – see TDC Day 16

2) A site with high Google Page Rank. – postnote – doing social bookmarking, using Social Poster, plus article marketing using Ezine Articles for this – see TDC Day 17

And you want to start by being a big fish in a small pond.
