Site traffic tips and tricks

Make Contact Page Open in a New Window

Using TARGET = “_blank” for your contact page is important there are many reasons why you should.

Firstly when you open your contact page in the same window visitors can loose track of what they wanted to contact you about. Here is an example I was visiting a site that I visit quite regularly and noticed that one of the links was giving a 500 Syntax error, command unrecognized so I tried to contact the webmaster that the script that this page required to run was not working correctly. But the contact page was opening in the same browser window and not in a new window or tab. This meant that when the contact page was open referring to the broken site script required me to click back to reference the broken url. So I did not care anymore to contact the webmaster as it was too much work and they would probably consider my email as Spam and give no thanks.

Furthermore contact pages on websites are mostly too commercial and do not offer true possibilities for visitor communication with the website owners. Contact pages seem to be only about selling more and not reading the visitors opinion even if it’s about telling them that something is very wrong and they can fix it. Companies pay 1000′s to website developers to build websites but even if these sites are compatible with all browsers at the time of their creation with new browsers and new ways to view websites with other technologies such as tablets and smartphones.

 

Companies pay a developer to build a website and think that’s it we have our domain and site setup but a few years later they are incompatible from the devices people are accessing them from, moving with technology and times is important and this also means offering visitors to contact you about more than just sales.

What People Search for on Their Mobile And Creating Content For Mobile Visitors

Mobile and Desktop search may well be very varied in what people search for from their mobile compared to what people search for using desktops and laptops. The first thing that needs to be considered when analyzing topics to get more mobile visitors is knowing what type of content to put on your site to get more mobile traffic.You can look into some Market research on mobile search queries and get some mobile marketing tips from many online sources for mobile content searches but you can also ask your friends what they search for on their smartphones. Most of them will only use their mobile to view facebook, twitter, read emails and use mobile apps like wikireader for the iphone to get basic facts for a topic they may wish to know about.If you want to create content that people will search for and get it to convert you will need to write about stuff that people read and search for on mobile devices here are some examples of the types of content people search for on mobiles.

Mobile Games and Apps Downloads.

Create content that links to the Direct Download page of a Mobile App or Download as most mobile portals are filled with redirects and misleading meta homepage descriptions which bring visitors from mobiles to the homepage and not the download page of the App or game.

Quick References

I do not have any exact proof of this but many mobile searches are because people are debating something and they want to prove themselves right. This often happens and people just want to prove something is true using their mobile.Some examples include artists real names, who sang the original, who stared in and so on.

Video

As the power of mobile connection speed increases video has become very popular to be viewed on mobile devices. People often search for funny videos on their mobile but also tutorials.

Recipies

As mobiles can be brought anywhere including the kitchen recipe content is useful for mobile traffic some examples are how much goes into how much goes into recipe “recipe name”

Your Own Mobile Search Queries

Think about what you search for on your mobile, Maybe you search for where you can get a pizza near where you are using Google Maps on your mobile or finding the Nearest ATM using a Mobile App whatever it is if you search for it 1000′s of other may also be doing likewise.

Testing Clickbank Products With Traffic Exchanges For PPC Campaings

Before you Invest any Time into Article Marketing or PPC

 

Writing a Good Text Ad or Creating a Image or even Graphical Advertisment the same applies for article marketing submissions for a clickbank marketplace product Landing Page that Does Not convert in PPC Networks can be Painstaking work and even costly both in money for the advertiser and time for the article marketer. So before writing an Advertisement or Article for a Clickbank hop link to run on a PPC network you may need to test if the Product has any conversion rate you can go by the Clickbank Gravity Scale but the Clickbank Gravity scale id just one factor to consider when picking a product to promote from the Clickbank Marketplace.

 

This is a method I have used to try out Clickbank product pages before promoting them in PPC of Using Article Marketing. First I used a Traffic Exchange and earned website views just say 100. I then picked a product from the Clickbank marketplace and created a Clickbank tracking link.Next I sent the 100 visitors to my Clickbank hop link and later checked the Tracking Url stats in my Clickbank Analytics Reports. When I seen no order form Impressions let alone order form submission Impressions in my Clickbank hop link traffic reports. I decided the product I wanted to promote was of little interest to anyone and would waste no more time trying to promote it.

 

Of course to do this you will need both Clickbank and traffic exchange accounts there are many traffic exchanges but I would use fasteasytraffic as their surf ratios and bonuses are great not to mention the delivery of traffic to your site fast and easy as the name says there are many other exchanges but fasteasytraffic is one of the better ones.
