The information that is needed is
1. Average traffic per day
2. Conversion rate
3. How long does a customer stay on the site?
4. How much time is spent on the sales page?
5. From where are your customers coming?
Before jumping into SEO or anything analyse this data.
You may want to promote the site in places similar to those from which your customes are coming.

I recommend that you study Google's webmaster tools with particular attention to link building.
You need also to pay attention to key word content and your location - when I do a Google search for "porch lights las vegas" I don't find you on page one. IF that is an important key word search for you do a page source study on the people on page one and figure out why they are there. BOB

17. Re: how can I bring traffic to my website - A:Web marketing Apr 22, 2009 5:09 PM

Hi Carilaz, that is a broad, yet important question. There are a number of proven methods to market your website on the Internet to create an increase in traffic. I have taken small sites getting 10 hits a month to over 10,000 a month. It took about a year of focused effort.

Here are some basic channels and their estimated costs:

  1. Google AdWords "Pay Per Click" - You set the budget $200-300+.
  2. Ebay - A percentage of goods sold.
  3. Blog - Talk about the products in detail. Free
  4. Craigslist.org - Free
  5. "Organic" search engine optimization - For your site $2000+
  6. Viral Marketing - a crazy attention getting video (1-2 minutes long) - $2000+

Many new website owners think traffic will just start to roll in once the wonderful site you've build is launched. Unfortuntely, there are so many competitors now, that you must market it just as if it were a brick and mortar store. There in lies the new business model of the Internet...connecting with the people who are looking for solar products.


You will have to do research on any one of these methods to move forward as they cannot be fully explained in a forum post. However, this should give a good base to start your research.

Take any one of the suggestions above and search for it in Google or Yahoo and you will find many companies willing to share there expertise.

By the way, I think solar is a great industry to be in. Stay progressive.

Good luck,
SEMWarrior

You have some good ideas here, let me encourage you with this thought. Do things that are good for long term results. Right now, trading links may seem like a good idea but it is not. I get tons of requests to trade links from sites that have no relevance whatsoever with my sites topic, theme or products. Google hates that and discounts it, these people are trying to take the easy way out. Easy sucks. Someone mentioned article marketing, that is excellent. I would also embark on a solid social marketing campaign and add bookmarking to your list. But the best technique is one no one mentioned and that would be to start a blog. I use blogs that are directly relevant to your site and build it up. Get into your topic and give your viewers good content. After a short while, you will have a great linking machine. Link to your site from your blog using anchor text for keywords you want to rank for. Do the same with your article marketing, don't justs put your url into the resources page, use anchor text and keywords you want to rank for.

Organic SEO might be complicated, but it's free on the bright side. Just takes some time. Signing up for Google Webmaster Tools is highly recommended. They give you a lot of good feedback on what the Google bots are seeing. Find a way to add more pages to your site. Deeper sites have a better shot at getting better rankings.

Yes, I agree wholeheartedly. If you can add a blog to your subdomain of your site, it will increase your pages quickly. Every blog post will be a page. Try to match it to the theme of your site. I also add articles, I do that to add value to my visitors. Anyone can buy something from a site, so I try to add value to make people want to buy from me.

Hi,

We took a look at your site and saw that a few changes have to be made for it to be search engine friendly and get max traffic

1) Make your URL SEO Optimized. eg Instead of www.daylightgifts.com/catalog/item/6921432/6886003.htm why not use an SEO Optimized URL like www.daylightgifts.com/catalog/rechargable/Rechargable-Fan.htm This adds your keywords to your URl and gets better traffic then the former.

2) Add better descriptions to your site Pages, instead of using just keywords in there.

Make these changes and you will see a change in your site traffic. Also keep posting articles with your site URL hyperlinked to yoru keywords on top article sites.

I definitely recommend leaving comments on blogs with your link, as well as joining forums. You need to make sure that you are adding substance in your posts though. The actual interaction and relationship building is what will drive traffic to your site, not the link alone.
