Since I launched my virtual assistant business I have discovered that business owners invest tons of money to drive traffic to their sites. Their business mainly depends upon targeting new customers to their sites and making sales out of these visits. The solution that I recommend to them for the easiest way to accomplish an increase in Google page rankings – is using their WordPress blog to drive traffic.

Generating blogger traffic to your blog requires you to exercise a little effort but thankfully modern technology has made the task much easier and it is not that expensive either. Now by using your WordPress blog to drive traffic, you can maintain your budget and at the same time you can practically double your customer base and sales overnight.

Attract Customers to Your WordPress Blog

Here is a step wise approach to attract customers to your blog within 24 hours of its creation:  

1) Use a hosted WordPress as your blogging platform. You will like the features a WordPress blog gives you and it is very easy to use.

2) Next, use article marketing with WordPress. Article marketing is the easiest way to drive traffic your blog. Article marketing is nothing but the proper use of keywords in articles used for websites.

Keywords are generally the most relevant tags used by an internet surfer. The targeted keywords should have a density of approximately once in every two hundred words or so.

Remember, the search engines filter out the article if it uses keywords too frequently and ignores the article if it uses too few of them. However, the uniqueness of keyword rich articles should never be compromised.

An easier method is to use an article submission site.

3) Use social bookmarking sites to bookmark your blog. It is a great way to gather traffic but do not overuse this method. Over use can lead to spamming of the sites.

One of the most famous bookmarking sites is Digg.com. There are several other famous bookmarking sites such as Reddit and Fark.

4) Use social networking sites to share your blog. These sites, unlike the social bookmarking sites, are used to connect to other people online and create friendships and social networks with people related to your niche.

Some of the most diversified social networking sites are Facebook, X – Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest and Classmates Online. Via these social networking sites you can promote your business even, if it is only marginally.

5) You can also use video marketing to publicize your blog by making Google videos related to your blog content and uploading them on sites such as YouTube. You can get good ranking with traffic from video on the search engines quickly after publishing, provided you maintain quality content.

Using Your WordPress Blog to Drive Traffic

For your WordPress blog to drive traffic to your site, you need to apply your plan in a systematic way. By incorporating these simple but effective and advanced traffic generating tools it is not difficult to drive targeted traffic to your site even within 24 hours of its creation.

Whether you really make your sales incorporating these guidelines depends upon how you create the feel of your blog, its site layout, the provision of ease of navigation, quality content and the type of plugins being used to attract your bloggers to stay longer on the blog.
