Whatever the purpose of your website or blog...whether it is for fun or for profit, it stands to reason that you want as much traffic as possible. Nobody ever complains that they're frustrated because too many people visit their blog or website.

Of course, not all website visitors are equal. Ideally, a high percentage your website visitors should be folks interested in the subject of your site, not surfers who wind up there by accident.

And, it's better still if your traffic is free...if it comes as a result of good search engine rankings or free links on other websites rather than from paid advertising.

Thus, one of the big secrets of promoting websites is not a secret at all. If you do not have (very!) deep pockets, you must have high enough search engine rankings to produce a substantial volume of organic traffic for your website.

A less obvious but not wholly surprising "secret" is that while keyword selection and good content are imperative, it is impossible to achieve success online without devoting a high percentage of your time and energy to strategic link building.

Writing and submitting articles like this one is a great way to obtain quality links (look at the author's box below). If you wish, you can hire folks to write for you, very inexpensively. And, there are several good pieces of software which can automate the submission of your articles to article distribution websites, individual website owners, RSS feeds, and media outlets of various kinds.

Requesting links on individual websites can also lead to a big boost in your search engine rankings. And, there are software programs that automate the process of identifying websites on subjects related to yours and contacting their webmasters. Alternatively, you can accomplish the same things manually, but it will be far more time consuming.

In the more than five years since our organization began offering free search engine optimization tutorials, hundreds of our students have achieved dramatic gains in their search engine rankings. Consistently, most of them have told us that the single most important factor in their success has been their focus on a continuing effort to acquire high quality links.

If boosting your website traffic is important to you, there is no better way to use your time than by conducting a focused, ongoing link building campaign.
