The life and longevity of your site is decided by the number of visitors that you get everyday. It won’t be wrong to say that there is targeted traffic behind every successful site. Sometimes it becomes quite a difficult thing to do and one even has to dedicate real lot of time in the increasing the website traffic.
However, this difficult task can also be made easier if you handle it wisely. Here you’ll surely get to know some of the easiest possible ways to increase website traffic.
1. Keep your site updated.
Isn’t this a thing that you do everyday? Yeah, surely when your site deals with things that need a regular update, for example: if you sell electronic gadget, you’ll make an addition of all the latest gizmos and gadgets as soon as they get out of the manufacturing units. Again, if you sell clothes, you’ll be making an addition as soon as the latest fashion hits the stores, so is with the case of the books, music, and movies. But still there are several such products which hardly get any new model out and you simply don’t know how to keep your site updated.
The best way is to place some special sections on your site that can easily be updated from time to time and simply link those sections with those pages on which you sell your stuffs. For instance, if your site deals with books, music, movies, you can write reviews on them, or interviews with the authors and the stars. Or a special how to section telling people how to do things related to your niche products. Say if your site deals with gadgets help people to take care of them properly, or how to mend them on their on, and so on.
This is the best way to get most targeted traffic and allure them to keep coming again and again.
2. Internal Linking
Yes, regularly updating your site will surely get you better traffic. But your traffic will soon leave your site once they have read the content that made them land up on your page. But if you cleverly interlink the pages, you’ll not only reduce the bounce rate but will also influence your audiences to buy your stuffs and keep coming back to you again and again. Make sure your internal linking strategy is not distracting your readers.
So, let’s say you have a page telling people how to alter their older dresses according to the current fashion and free their clothes from the closets, you can link the page to another page that says similar things about shoes, or hat, or gloves, or so on. Again you can link those pages to your main pages where you are doing the actual business by asking your readers to check out such special dresses that promise not to die away with the fashion.
3. Proper Social Media Usage
Social media usage shouldn’t be restricted to creating a page on Facebook or Twitter or a video channel on YouTube. You will have to make your fans and followers believe that you really care for them and you are the most useful resource for them and they shouldn’t be ignoring you.
So, how you’re going to do this? Create special video tutorials and place them on your YouTube channel and link them to your main business site. This will persuade your viewers to come to your site for further information. Again, you can share all your useful and attractive content on FB wall. Create a buzz about your latest product or service; get involved with your friends, fans, and followers. This works quite well in influencing them to come to your site.
There are many other effective ways but these three ways to increase website traffic will surely be enough to begin with.

Internal linking is extremely important when it comes to increasing traffic. Sometimes, we need to keep the visitors from search engine to read on further. As a result, internal linking could be the best way to do so.
Depends on what we want to do. Perhaps we don't actually want the visitor to read, but want him/her to click on the Adsense ads?

These are indeed easy ways to get more traffic to our sites. But I believe they are easier said than done.
