6. Do link exchanges

Link building is an extremely important part of SEO. The search engines will look at the amount of links that come into your site as well as the status of the sites that link to you (the amount of traffic those sites get). Although the search engines look more favorably on links that are not reciprocal, exchanging links is a great place to start!
  • Find other websites that have the same topic as your site and send an email to the webmaster asking if he or she would like to do a link exchange.
  • Ask local organizations such as your Chamber of Commerce or Visitor's Bureau if a link exchange could be done. Ask your friends, family members and social networking contacts if they would like to exchange links.
 

7. Write a blog

Blogging is an exceptional way to consistently add new content to your site! We recommend taking a look at Tumblr. It's a great way to get started and once you've set up your blog you can add it to your site using the Tumblr Widget in the SiteBuilder.

 

8. Submitting articles to article directories

There are many article directories on the Internet that accept unpaid submissions of articles for inclusion in their article database. What you can do is write informative articles about your niche area, submit them to these article directories and place an Author Bio at the end with a link back to your website. When you submit your articles to an article directory you give other people permission to reprint your article in their Internet publications such as websites, newsletters, blogs, etc. as long as the Author Bio is included along with the links back to your website. As people begin to read your articles and reprint them, you will begin to not only get links back to your site, but visitors as well. Here are a few good article directories to get you started: ideamarketers.com, ezinearticles.com and articlealley.com.

 

9. Offline marketing

Don't forget to add your website to your business cards, brochures and print media advertising.

Strategies which will increase traffic to your website will also play into your ranking in the search engines; it's a great cycle to get your website into because more traffic = better rankings and better rankings = more traffic!
