Recently I found a very helpful video that revealed 9 new techniques to drive more traffic to your website. Enjoy!

1 The “Upside Down” Guest Post

Write a guest post but with some special feature: Include helpful resources that link to your website. This will bring more traffic to your website than the Authors Bio at the very end of the article.

2 Use Click to Tweet Links

Check your post for “tweetable” content. That can be list, info graphics.

Go to https://clicktotweet.com/ and create a Link that you then embed to your blog.

3 Publish more List posts

Buzz Sumo found out that List posts are 6x more shared than How to posts and 40x more than info graphics.

4 Overhaul and update old blog posts

Add new strategies, update your graphics, remove outdated links.
Relaunch it like a new post. Share it new on social media, send an announcement to your email list.

5 Add “Share Triggers” to your content

Use social currency: things that lets the reader look good if he shares it on social media. This can be for instance a well designed info graphic.

6 Go on Podcasts

One survey found out that 24% of all Americans listen to podcasts regularly.

Go to podcasters as a guest. The links provided in the show notes can boost your website significantly with laser targeted visitors.
