8 Reasons You’re Not Getting Any Website Traffic - And How To Fix It
You feel as if you’ve done everything right, but your traffic numbers say otherwise.
Clearly, there’s something wrong.
Maybe you’re just a tweak or two away from opening the floodgates?
But the question remains… what is the reason behind your traffic-poor website?
Fortunately for you, you’ve come to the right place. In this post, we’ll show you legitimate possibilities why your website isn’t performing and how to fix them.
Let’s get started.
Here are eight reasons why your traffic isn’t growing.
1. Your SEO game is weak
Google is the best source of free traffic. But getting your content within the top 10 results is a tough task. Only the best of the best manage to be featured up there.
That means your content needs to be top notch. That’s the start.
But there are several other factors at play, including setting up an XML sitemap, installing an SEO plugin, optimizing your content for keyword search terms, and more.
Without all these, your chances at ranking high in search engines are slim. Just missing one important factor can result in very low rankings.
Here’s the fix
Using WordPress SEO is a multi-step process that can be difficult at first. But with a little practice, it can become second nature.
Install and configure Yoast SEO
Yoast SEO is probably the best WordPress SEO plugin. It’s easy to use and it gets the job done. To get started, install the plugin and use the configuration wizard to help you with the setup.
If you need more help, WP Beginner’s got an easy-to-follow guide.
Install Google Analytics, Search Console and an XML Sitemap
Everybody knows Google Analytics, Search Console and an XML sitemap are essential.
Google Analytics allows you to keep track of your site’s overall traffic. It’s also used to confirm your website with the Search Console.
The Search Console allows you to keep track of your search presence. And XML sitemaps provide a way for Google’s bots to read your site.
These step-by-step guides will teach you everything you need to know: The Absolute Beginner’s Guide to Google Analytics by Moz and How To Add Your Website To Google Search Console by Yoast.
Use Yoast’s On Page SEO feature to help you optimize your content
This is a neat feature that keeps your on page optimization on par.
First, it starts by asking you for your target keyword.
Then it analyzes your page and shows you how well you’ve optimized it around your keyword.
Green = good. Orange = OK. Red = bad.

2. Your backlink profile is whack
Backlinks play a key role in your search rankings.
Most pages that rank in the top three or so usually have high-quality links directing browsers to them. At the very least, their domain has heaps of authority, meaning that their link profile consists of dozens and dozens of backlinks from their industry’s best.
If you haven’t tried any link building in the past, chances are you don’t have many backlinks.
And if this is the case, that’s likely the #1 reason why you’re not getting any traffic from Google.
Here’s the fix
The best way to get started is by blog commenting. Most blogs give out no-follow links to their commenters.
No-follow links don’t really carry much link juice, which means they rarely help with your search rankings. But that doesn’t matter…
The best link profiles have a good mixture of no-follow and do-follow links.
To perfect your blog commenting technique, here are a few simple steps.
Go to one of your niche’s top blogs.
Pick a blog article you’re interested in and read it in full.
Scroll to the comments section, fill out the form and leave a quality comment.
Rinse and repeat.
But as I said… blog comment links aren’t exactly going to get you #1 rankings. You need to do better than that.
To build do-follow links, one of the best techniques is to write a guest post. Most blogs allow guest authors a link or two. Usually, one within the content and another in your author bio.
Here’s an example from one of my first guest posts. It’s from a site called Successful Blogging.
See the in-content link?
There are more in my author bio link.
Another link building strategy I’d recommend is using resource pages.
Resource pages are basically link pages. They usually have dozens of links pointing to high-quality content.
I’ve built several quality links using this method myself. Including this one from Page One Power.

3. Your target keywords are out of your league
We all know keywords are incredibly important to search engine rankings.
However, the more times a keyword gets entered into a Google search, the more likely it becomes targeted by the very best writing in an industry. Which means it becomes 100 times harder to beat your competitors for a spot in the top 10.
Even if your content is the best, there’s no guarantee you’ll be able to achieve high rankings… the SERPs are unfair like that. They usually give the top rankings to authority websites such as Amazon, Entrepreneur and WebMD.
So if you’re targeting keywords like how to quit smoking, chances are you’ll probably never get a top 10 ranking.
Here’s the fix
You can choose to either gain authority, or target long-tail keywords.
If you want to build an authority website, you’ll need to work very hard and be very patient. Becoming an authority isn’t easy. It can take months or even years.
The type of work you’d have to do includes guest blogging, interviews, massive link building, and creating 10x content.
On the flipside, if you target long-tail keywords, which are search terms containing more than 4-5 words and are highly specific, you will have a much higher chance at driving search traffic.
I’d recommend mixing both of the two options together… target the long-tail, and while you’re at it, do everything you can to grow your authority.
For example, every time you create a blog post, make sure it’s 10x better than your competitors’.
Also, consider setting up some guest posts on your niche’s top blogs. To start, I’d suggest one guest post per month (maybe even per week).
Here’s a great post on How to Generate 20,000 Monthly Visitors Through Long-Tail Search by Neil Patel and another one on 25 Ways To Build Online Authority by Vinny La Barbera.
4. Your content isn’t worthy
Your content is the primary reason why people come to visit your blog.
If you’re only pumping out mediocre blog posts, no one will want to stop by for a read. No matter how great your marketing tactics are, if your content sucks, so will your traffic flow.
Even if you pay for your traffic… no one will stay past a hot minute.
Driving traffic is one thing. Getting them to stay, is another. And doing it on a consistent basis, that’s the million-dollar question.
Here’s the fix
It all starts with high-quality content that’ll make your readers stop and say, “I never thought of it like that before!”
Know what I’m saying?
You should be trying to write incredibly high-quality posts that are optimized for the web.
Here’s a checklist for you:
Short paragraphs
No fluff or gobbledygook
Use bold and italics for emphasis
Include plenty of images/multimedia
Include real-life data
Back up your claims with proof, sources and links
There’s a lot that goes into creating readable (not just scannable) web content.
So find the right topics. Use keyword tools to find highly-searched phrases. Take advantage of Google’s autocomplete and related searches. Explore Quora and other online communities to find questions being asked within your niche.
If you study your target audience, you will find the right topics to write about, which will then generate more traffic.
These content hacks will tell you everything you need to know: How You Can Create Content That Generates 400,000 Targeted Visitors by OK Dork and How to Create 10 x Content: Whiteboard Friday by Moz.
5. You are spending too much time CREATING and not enough PROMOTING
We all know our blogs cannot live without high-quality content.
If you consistently create a blog post every week, there’s a pretty good chance you’ll generate a nice flow of organic traffic.
However, nothing is guaranteed in the blogging world. Especially when it comes to getting fresh eyes on your content.
Have you heard of the saying, ‘publish and pray’? I first heard it from Brian Dean of Backlinko.
Basically, it means a blogger with little to no authority who publishes blog post after blog post, without any promotion, in hopes of magically driving traffic from unknown sources.
It’s like… you hit the publish button and pray someone will read it, without even knowing how that someone will find your blog post.
But the thing is, no matter how epic your content is, if you have no brand/website authority, no one will find it in a search engine or newsfeed.
That’s why you have to aggressively promote your content.
Here’s the fix
Have you ever heard of the 80/20 rule? Well, it applies to content marketing, also. Spend 80% on promotion, 20% on creation.
But how do you promote content, I hear you ask?
Well, there’s more than one way to do it, and there’s more to it than sharing it on social media.
The best way to promote your content is with a little bit of influencer marketing.
Influencer marketing is where you leverage an industry influencer’s reach or audience to gain some exposure for yourself. Which is why it’s perfect for content promotion.
I recommend reading the following resources:

6. Your headlines aren’t click-worthy
If your headlines are not compelling, chances are you won’t get many clicks. No matter how well you rank in search engines or how many times you show up in social media newsfeeds.
You see, headlines are the first thing internet users see before making that ultimate decision of whether or not they want to visit your site.
If their minds tell them no, it’s on you.
It doesn’t matter how awesome your blog content is. If no one clicks it, no one sees it.
Here’s the fix
Play with a bunch of headline formulas. There are tons out there. And all you have to do is fill in the blanks, basically.
One of the easiest formulas I’ve used, which is great for list posts, is this… [number] + [adjective] + [keyword] + [promise]
Here are some examples:

99 Simple Weight Loss Tips That Could Help You Shed 50 Pounds
57 Awesome Halloween Costume Ideas That Will Scare the Crap Out of Everybody
See?
The formula can also be used to craft how-to headlines. But instead of adjectives, you use adverbs. Check it out…

How to Magically Bake Delicious Cookies Everyone Will Love
Try it for youself. If you want more information, Neil Patel has written a great Step-by-Step Guide to Writing Powerful Headlines and Audience Bloom has an inspirational resource on 101 Title Ideas for Your Next Blog Post.
7. Your website’s user experience is horrible
If you’re not consistently getting website traffic, there’s a good chance it might be because of your website’s UX.
If your site isn’t user-friendly, no one will want to visit it. No matter how great your content is.
If you publish something your audience actually wants to read, they might not even come and read it. They’ll just go to someone else for the same information.
That’s how important your user experience is.
Here’s the fix
There’s a lot that goes into a user-friendly website.
One of the main things is the loading time. If your site takes more than three seconds to fully load, you can expect your visitors to hit the ‘back’ button.
Another thing is the mobile responsiveness. A couple years ago, Google put out an update where mobile users were the focus. If your site isn’t mobile-friendly, you likely aren’t going to rank in the mobile SERPs.
Yet another thing is that Google and internet users themselves don’t like intrusive popups. The Big G actually stated in their mobile update that it is against pop-ups that block the reader from reading content (you can read more about that here).
The last thing I want to mention here is blog design. There’s a lot that goes into a well-designed blog that’ll make your visitors visit and your readers read.

8. Your social media presence is practically non-existent
Social media has become a big part of traffic generation over the years. It’s not all about Google and search engines anymore.
So having some presence within your social communities can mean a lot to your traffic.
If you can grow a good following on networks like Twitter and LinkedIn, a single share/post can result in hundreds of website visitors.
And it’s not just the major social networks that matter. There are plenty of online communities out there that aren’t on sites like Facebook.
Take Reddit, for example. There are thousands of ‘sub-reddits’ that get thousands of followers.
There are also forums. For example, if you’re in the marketing space, there’s Warrior Forum. It has thousands of active members. Tens of thousands, even.
But if your social profiles look something like this…
…you won’t be able to get any social media or forum traffic.
Here’s the fix
Become part of a social media community. Be active and contribute.
Start by choosing one or two sites to begin with. For example, Facebook and Twitter.
For networks like Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter, you will need to fill out professional-style profiles to do it right.
Why? Because before I follow someone on Twitter, for instance, I usually take a quick peek at their profile. I read their bio and a few of their latest posts to see if there’s anything I can learn from them (or at the very least, to see if we share interests).
To be an active contributor to your chosen social media community, answer questions, provide exclusive tips/content, offer support, build rapport and commenting on other people’s posts.
After a while, you’ll start to gain some influence. When this happens, you will be able to start directing some of your group’s traffic to your own blog.
Here is a great article outlining 12 Proven Tactics for Rapidly Growing Your Presence on Social Media on Entrepreneur and another one on Sprout Social that will teach you 6 Ways to Immediately Boost Social Media Traffic.
Wrapping up
Driving traffic every day isn’t just for top-performing sites like Forbes, Authority Nutrition and TechCrunch.
Sure, it can be difficult. But with some hard work, you can get in on the action too.
You just need to master how to do it, and practice makes perfect.
Follow the great points above and dive into the resources I’ve provided. I know you’ll find they work for you.

Hey - Pat from StarterStory.com here with another interview.Today's interview is with John James of Country Outfitter, a brand that makes cowboy boots.The company went from (at one point) $14.5M/month. John tells the story of what happened and why the business failed.Some stats:Product: Cowboy boots.Revenue/mo (high): $14.5MRevenue/mo (low): $100,000Facebook fans: 9MEmail subscribers: 11MStarted: January 2008Location: Fayetteville, ArkansasFounders: 3Employees: 20Hello! Who are you and what are you working on?I’m John James, I’m currently the CEO of Engine, a new cloud hosted ecommerce platform.In this interview, however, I’m sharing the story of how I started my previous business, Acumen Brands.I’ll share how we started, how we acquired a nine million Facebook fans in 90 days for one of our brands, how we leveraged that success to raise $100 million in venture capital in middle-of-nowhere Arkansas, and how the business ultimately failed spectacularly after being acquired.I’m excited to share the story about how an ex-physician (me) and an ex-lawyer built a automated robotic warehouse to support a few dozen online stores, and how one of the stores (Country Outfitter) exploded into a hundred million dollar retailer of cowboy boots in less than six months, despite the fact that neither of the founders owned a single a pair of cowboy boots.What's your backstory and how did you get into ecommerce?Acumen Brands was founded on January 1, 2009, at the height of the financial crisis.From doctor to entrepreneurAt that time, I already had well over decade of ecommerce experience. I founded my first ecommerce business from my college dorm room in 1995, and the proceeds from selling quiz bowl questions and study aids on the early internet financed my medical school education.In 2001, while working 100 hour weeks during the intern year of my Family Practice residency, I started my second business one night when I was on call in the hospital. It was perhaps the only slow night of call in my three years of residency, and I took advantage of the quiet time to build Grillstuff.com.My brother and I were partners in that business, and we hoped to hit $30,000 in revenue in 2002. If memory serves, we beat our 2002 forecast by nearly 100x, and we even had a $30,000 DAY at the end of that year!Taking advantage of GoogleThe arbitrage of the nascent Google Adwords keyword platform was pretty incredible in the early days. At that time, you could achieve first position in the search results for a few pennies or a nickel on super competitive keywords.We dominated search for grilling related keywords, allowing us to scale quite quickly. The unbelievably cheap marketing allowed us to bootstrap that business to eight figures of revenue without taking investment capital. Excluding the $49 “investment” we made into building a Yahoo Store, we were profitable from day one.The advent of Acumen BrandsI sold that business in 2008, and almost immediately started Acumen Brands.I started Acumen after reading an article in Harvard Business Review stating that in times of recession / depression / financial crisis, businesses that double down on their marketing spend gain a disproportionate amount of market share. Paradoxically, starting my second business right after 9/11 and my third during the 2009 crisis was quite fortuitous.With Acumen Brands, we set out to build several dozen online stores in several different verticals. We built our own ecommerce software platform, and launched a couple dozen stores in different niches including medical scrubs, workwear, outdoor gear, dance wear, cowboy boots, and several others.We didn’t know it at the time, but as I’ll explain, one of our stores, Country Outfitter, would grow an order of magnitude larger than the other stores and change our lives in the process.Describe the process of launching these online stores and running this while operation.At the time, I described our business as “a marketing plan in search of products to sell.”We had a cutting edge ecommerce platform that plugged into Google (and eventually Facebook and email marketing) quite well, and we had an SEO and SEM expertise that was light years ahead of many of our eventual competitors.We were agnostic to industry, and find our target markets, we started with a data driven approach to keyword research.We were looking for mid to high volume search terms with a good deal of purchase intent. Once we found those keywords, we further narrowed our scope to industries that didn’t have an established online category killer brand - we didn’t want to sell books against Amazon, electronics against Best Buy, or even fishing supplies against Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s.Additionally, we were looking for items that could be shipped easily, that had big gross margins, and weren’t sold online directly by their manufacturers.We found a few dozen candidates, and we started building stores.After building the first two, a medical scrubs brand and a workwear brand, we raised $3.75 million of venture capital -- the first round of VC in Arkansas in over a decade.With that capital we installed a Kiva robotic fulfilment system, and launched a new store every couple weeks, growing to around 20 stores very quickly.Building our own softwareBefore we could open our first store, we needed software. We spent about 6 months building the first version of our custom ecommerce platform, and spent the next 6 years improving the product.The learnings from managing a few dozen of our own stores on our own platform eventually led to Engine, the ecommerce platform we’re building today. My old CTO (and great friend) Jim Kane was Engine’s co-founder, and we’ve hired several of the best engineers from our old team.Building a fulfillment centerIn addition to software, we also needed a world-class fulfillment center to pick, pack, and ship our orders. With the help of Kiva Systems and their robots, we designed and built one of the world’s most efficient split case fulfilment centers in a very short period of time - 96 days from start to finish, Kiva’s quickest install by nearly a year.Here’s a picture of the robots in our old warehouseHow did you attract and retain customers?We scaled from $3 million to $5 million to $9 million in revenue in our first three years, largely on the back of our “harvest demand” strategy driven by Google keyword marketing. We would open a new store, adding new keywords to the mix, and revenue would follow albeit slower than we wanted.Unlike the business I started in 2001 where clicks were super cheap, in 2009 Google Adwords was just beginning to get cost prohibitive for a startup. If we were going to scale quicker, we needed another nascent ad platform to arbitrage.Taking advantage of FacebookBy arbitraging Facebook’s nascent ad platform, we were able to grow on of our stores, Country Outfitter, a retailer of cowboy boots, beyond our wildest expectations.The opportunity was enormous. Whereas there were only 135,000 searches each month for cowboy boots on Google, we could reach 18.2 million potential cowboy boot wearers on Facebook by targeting people who liked country music, horses, and rodeo on Facebook.The majority of those 18.2 million women owned a pair of cowboy boots, and we knew many of those would buy another pair in the near future.We tried dozens of tactics, but the strategies we used on Google simply didn’t work on Facebook. Unlike Google where retailers could harvest pre-existing demand exposed by keyword searches, Facebook users weren’t in the buying mood. Rather than “harvesting” demand, we had to “create” demand.Harvesting demand is relatively easy and logical. We’d first acquire a click from one of 135,000 searches a month for cowboy boots, then we’d land the shopper on a page containing all our cowboy boots, and sales followed linearly.A different strategy with FacebookThe strategy we used to crack the Facebook code was counterintuitive.Rather than sell boots directly on the first visit, we changed our goal to get multiple visits from the same visitor, and make the first sale over time.The goal of the first visit was simply to establish a relationship with the customer. To ensure multiple visits without having to pay Facebook multiple times, we required the visitor to “join” the site by subscribing to our email list and becoming our fan on Facebook.Giveaways and a viral loopWe enticed the visitor to subscribe to our email by entering them into a giveaway to win a $500 pair of cowboy boots.After they entered their email address, we asked them to become our Facebook fan, and share the giveaway with their friends. After completing that 1-2-3 step process, they unlocked a 20% discount.While more than half the people declined our invitation to “join,” the visitors who did would come back an inordinate amount of times. They’d come back every week to enter our next weekly giveaway, and eventually they’d purchase a pair of boots.Each weekly giveaway had over a million entrants, and Country Outfitter would routinely have 10 million site visits a month.Due to the viral loops described above, Country Outfitter became ubiquitous on Facebook. We held our first giveaway on Labor Day 2012, and by the end of that yearwe had acquired 9 million fans and 11 million email subscribers.Amazingly, 8% of those 11 million giveaway entrants eventually purchased a pair of cowboy boots from us, leading to a $100 million annual revenue run rate. Through the process, Country Outfitter’s revenue grew from just $100,000 / month to a $14.5 million month just six months later.Converting 8% of 11 million giveaway entrants into paying customers was an exhilarating challenge.Email marketing flowsWith 11 million email subscribers, we had to immediately shift away from a “batch and blast” email marketing strategy, quickly migrating to a much more efficient system of “event driven” marketing flows.Rather than flood our customer’s inboxes with unsolicited spam, we constructed dozens of automated marketing cascades that were tailored to the activity and interest of individual shoppers. If USER X does EVENT Y then they receive MARKETING FLOW Z customized to their known interests.These automated cascades increased our ecommerce email CPM by 1000%. Updated learnings and processes gleaned from optimizing these flows are my favorite feature of Engine’s new ecommerce platform.What caused the company to fail?To get to today, you have to run through several failures, and a couple great successes.While we succeeded in generating a fantastic return for our Seed, Series A, and Series B investors and achieved a life-changing partial exit for the founding team, we fell far short of our goal of building a publicly traded company. The cause of “failure” was multifactorial.Stepping down as CEO18 months after selling a majority of Acumen Brands, I stepped down as CEO. The company had morphed from a retail marketing technology company to a retailer of cowboy boots that was attempting to become a manufacturer as well. I was over my head, and out of my sweet spot, so I left. After I left, the company lost their CTO and vital growth marketing talent as well.CompetitionThe company failed spectacularly after losing that talent, but the writing was already on the wall when we left: Amazon (and Zappos) started moving heavily into our space, the brands we sold started their own websites and started selling direct, our biggest competitor went public, and most importantly Facebook’s organic reach algorithm changed dramatically and bid prices increased exponentially.The fall from grace was nearly as swift as the ascension.Facebook Algorithm ChangesWith a series of algorithm changes, Facebook rendered our 9 million fans worthless. Whereas our organic reach initially hovered around 56%, it dropped quickly to well under 1%.Where over 5 million fans would see our posts for free in the beginning, after the algorithm changes, only 50,000 fans would see an average post.Switching from our custom built platformThe death knell, however, was the new owner’s decision to switch off our powerful, custom-built ecommerce platform to Demandware. The day of the platform switch, conversion rates dropped 38%, and never recovered.The business assets were eventually sold to our largest competitor for pennies on the dollar - a competitor we contemplated buying out just a couple years earlier.Changes in the ecommerce industryThrough watching that decline, as well as watching the high profile implosions of similar high-flyers like Gilt Groupe and One Kings Lane, I’ve realized that the future of ecommerce looks decidedly different than the beginnings.As we found out on Country Outfitter, selling other manufacturers goods like a traditional retailer is largely a fool’s errand today -- Amazon’s already won that game, Wal-Mart is a clear second, and several great companies like Nordstrom are fighting for a distant third.Customer relationships and brand powerThe ecommerce companies that are winning today, and will win in the future, all have a direct relationship with their customer. The majority of those will be high margin, vertically integrated direct-to-consumer companies.While we did almost everything right, we found out the hard way that customer loyalty lies mainly with the brand they are purchasing, not the retailer. In today’s post-Amazon world, retailers are largely “dumb pipes” - supply chains utilized by consumers to get the products from their chosen brands in the most efficient way possible.Customers are increasingly agnostic to where they buy their favorite brands, but remain highly brand loyal.This brand loyalty, and the unprecedented ability to reach new customers online presents an exciting opportunity. Bonobos, Harry’s, Casper, Glossier, and others are the new breed. These digitally native, vertically integrated brands sell directly to their customers, bypassing the costly wholesale distribution network of traditional retail.Even mighty Wayfair sees the writing on the walls, and is quickly moving away from a traditional wholesaler/retailer relationship by launching their own brands like Birch Lane.It starts with a beautiful content+commerce experience designed to be shoppable on today’s mobile devices, and it ends with the ability to directly communicate that content to customers in a highly relevant, customizable way that is not dependant on leveraging external platforms like Facebook and Google.Through starting the business, have you learned anything particularly helpful or advantageous?I learned humility, how to deal with failure, and most importantly how to place my faith and family first.It was easy to get a big head when my picture was on the front page of local business publications every couple weeks, and speaking at national conferences. I became the face of startup success in Arkansas, and I must admit that the notoriety went to my head.Just a few months after selling the business, it started to unravel and we suffered through a round of layoffs. I eventually stepped down as CEO just 18 months after selling the majority of the business at a 9-figure valuation.These public failures knocked my ego down several pegs, and I hope that I’m a little easier to work with today than I was when I was younger. I took success for granted, and this time around I’m savoring every small victory as a God-given blessing.Most importantly, I learned how to be a better leader in my own family. During my residency and up through building Acumen, I sacrificed both the health of my family and my own health to solely focus on building a great business.While I still think about business the vast majority of my waking hours, I’m 1000% more present with my family. As an example, I have three children in athletics, and I haven’t missed a single game in the past three years - even the afternoon games that take place during office hours. This was a conscious decision, and it’s the best decision I’ve ever made.Along with that decision, I am diligent about taking care of my own health. During the most stressful period of building Acumen, I contracted a rare stress-related illness known as Ramsay Hunt Syndrome. I was incapacitated for an entire month, and nearly permanently lost my voice and ability to swallow.This brush with mortality served as a dramatic wake up call. 100 hour work weeks were the norm for me then, and now they are much less frequent though still occasionally necessary.What platform/tools do you use for your business?At Acumen, we built all our own software to run our stores. The learnings from this process were the genesis of Engine.Funny enough, in my role as an investor running an ecommerce startup studio, I recommended Shopify to dozens of entrepreneurs and even used it in a couple of our portfolio companies.While I still believe Shopify has an incredible product for ecommerce brands that are just starting out, my tune changed dramatically after watching several of our Hayseed Ventures portfolio companies and entrepreneurs I mentored struggle with scaling on their technology.They all ran into a ceiling at about a million dollars of annual revenue, and universally had the same challenges that simply couldn’t be eradicated on Shopify’s platform.Closest to home, we watched the technology struggles of our first investment, Menguin. They struggled mightily with their technology, and we decided to build Engine to solve many of the problems they encountered.They eventually figured out their technology and sold for $25 million to the founder of Men’s Warehouse, but the lack of flexibility in off-the-shelf ecommerce platforms nearly cost them their business. The story is pretty incredible - read about how they did it here.We had previously solved those problems in Acumen’s homegrown software, and we contemplated purchasing the old software as a basis for Engine, but (wisely) started from scratch. Shopify and Magento were started in 2006, and we wanted a fresh new stack leveraging today’s mobile-first technology.What have been the most influential books, podcasts, or other resources?Rework by Jason Fried is my all time favorite, it’s short, quick and impactful. Measure What Matters by John Doerr is the best book I’ve read this year, we’ve adopted OKRs at Engine, and this book was quite influential in helping establish the process.I love the Masters of Scale podcast by Reid Hoffman.And I always start my day on Google News then Hacker News. Then I breeze through Techcrunch and Venturebeat, mainly to stay on top of the ecommerce industry. I typically command click any story I want to read on those four site, and open a couple dozen tabs of stories that I want to read.Despite the recommendations above I don’t read a ton of startup related content. I read a book or so each week, but rarely are they the traditional fare of startup CEOs. I only read non-fiction, and mainly consume a lot content from other fields. Physics, blockchain, finance, genetics, astronomy, medical research, etc.I’ve found through the years that learning the fundamentals of other disciplines is highly transferable to innovating in your chosen profession. For instance, I first learned the concept of arbitrage from a finance book I picked up… I applied that external knowledge to the nascent ad platforms of Google and Facebook and did quite well arbitraging the pricing inefficiency.Advice for other entrepreneurs who want to get started or are just starting out?Just Go. Seriously, just start. Today.Ready, Aim, Aim, Aim, Aim, Aim, Aim is not the best way to build a startup. You have to abandon your fear, get outside your comfort zone, and not be afraid of failure. I completely agree with Reid Hoffman from over a decade ago - if you aren’t embarrassed by the beta version of your product, you didn’t launch it fast enough.Run full steam ahead, create some chaos, then learn from the mistakes and iterate quickly.To be successful, you must have a few strokes of good luck. Just staying in the game, and being in business long enough for that luck to take hold is a large part of outsized success. I will say, however, that luck seems to be distributed quite unevenly, and it seems to follow the most prepared individuals and companies more often than not.I’ve made more mistakes than you can imagine, but as Mark Cuban said in 2005, in business, you only have to be right once.Are you looking to hire for certain positions right now?Yes! We are closing our next round of funding, and have 18 engineering positions and 12 sales / marketing positions open at the current time.We are specifically looking for Ruby on Rails and JS developers. We have offices in Fayetteville, Arkansas and Denver, Colorado - two of the five best places to live in the entire country according to CNBC and US News & World Report.Where can we go to learn more?Visit EngineCommerce.com, email me at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]).Liked this text interview?

8 Steps to Capturing 500,000 YouTube Views in 10 Months: Case Study
By Josh Coffy
As an avid marketing blog reader, my inbox and Feedly are constantly filled with fantastic marketing techniques on Google+, Twitter, and Facebook.
Although I use these social media sites heavily, I’d like to bring in another extremely powerful (often overlooked) marketing platform to the table—YouTube.
The first 100,000
At the beginning of 2013, my business partner and I decided to attempt a different marketing tactic for our (slow) growing drumming education company, Flight Drummers.
We constantly used Facebook and Twitter as our prime marketing resources, but it was soon apparent that the dream wouldn’t last long if we didn’t pick up more traffic or make more sales.
That month, we studied our competition hard and realized that Youtube was a rare marketing commodity in the drumming industry. Sure, a majority of drumming education companies had Youtube channels, but the view count, subscriber count, and interaction was minimal.
Seeing as this was a difficult marketing strategy for competition in our niche, we decided to capitalize on their weakness by filming some Youtube videos.
The following month, we geared up, filmed, edited nearly 70 videos, and began harnessing the true power of Youtube.
Within three months, we had accumulated more than 100,000 Youtube views with 1,800 subscribers, and by month 10, had generated 500,000+ views, accumulated a Youtube subscriber base of more than 8,400 people, and established paid members in 14 countries—primarily through Youtube.
Despite our current success with Youtube marketing, it wasn’t until we began following these eight steps, that we began to experience 2,000-3,000 views per day (5,000-7,000 views on release days) and a highly interactive subscriber base.
Let’s get started
Here are the 8 steps to capturing 500,000 YouTube views in just 10 months.
1. Stalk your competition
Although this sounds slightly odd, it’s necessary. Subscribe to channels that will be competing with you for views, subscribers, and ultimately sales. The goal is to learn from their mistakes and generate success–quicker.
A few things to study include:
Posting Days & Times. (Find what day of the week they’re posting and time of day they’re posting and try them yourself. Chances are, if they’ve been at the game long enough, they know what days and times generate the most views. This can save you boatloads of time trying to find the most effective days & times. We found the best days to post (in our industry) are Mondays and Wednesdays after 6pm EST. Most people are off work in our time zone and ready to be on their favorite social sites.)
Posting Material. (Is their content generating positive comments or are people responding negatively to their videos? Find what they’re doing wrong, and do it right.)
Posting Frequency. (We found that our competition was posting once per week on average, so we immediately jumped to 3 times per week. This positioned us as a more informative resource and skyrocketed our views. People like channels that generate fresh content consistently.)
Once you’ve done your research, you can begin developing a solid Youtube marketing plan.
2. Get your setup
This is probably the biggest ‘stopper’ for most people. (It was for me, too.)
Finding good cameras, editing software, and audio equipment can get quite expensive, especially if you don’t know what you’re looking for.
Depending on what you’re filming, you can get a setup relatively cheap, though. For simple setups (such as speaking presentations,) you could use the standard webcam on your computer, a blue microphone (for crisp audio,) and a free editing program like iMovie. (Less than $50)
For more complex and high-quality setups, I recommend a Canon T3i camera or later ($500+), Adobe Premiere Pro ($29.99/mo) for video editing, Logic Pro ($199) for audio editing, and an Audio Technica Wireless Mic ($101) for speaking.
3. Develop a theme
This step will make or break your Youtube success. It can be very easy to want to create a Youtube channel and post anything for views. Don’t do it.
The first channel I created was comprised of cover music videos, Facebook Marketing Tips, and investment tutorials. (What was I thinking?)
That immediately got me a plethora of comments regarding the irrelevancy my channel had as a whole and discouraged me from posting any more videos.
Think about it, what do all the top Youtube channels have in common? They stick to a theme.
Tyler Ward sticks to music, Jenna Marbles sticks to humor, Epic Rap Battles of History sticks to remixes; the list goes on.
So, before you begin creating videos, find your common them and stick to it.
4. Be consistent.
Just like content marketing, this is the step where most people goof up.
Consistency is hard. It takes time, energy and motivation–which is difficult to maintain when you have close to zero views and subscribers.
We tried Youtube Marketing on and off for about a year, but lacked consistency and averaged about 16-30 views per day. Once we established a consistency of releasing 2-3 videos per week, we hit 1,000 daily views within 1 month.
A great example of consistency is Ray William Johnson. He started his Youtube Video Blogging channel in 2007 and from his consistent posting of 3-4 videos per week, he has established one of the most well-known Youtube channels with more than 10.7 million subscribers and 2.6 billion views.
5. Add annotations to everything
Youtube has a great feature that allows you to have ‘annotations’ popup on a video while the viewer is watching. This is fantastic for building your subscriber base and letting people know of upcoming tours, product releases, free offers, etc.
When Flight Drummers went on tour, we added an annotation to every video that encouraged people to purchase tickets for our upcoming drum clinics and festival. When we decided to switch from paid memberships to free memberships, we did the same thing and added more than 1,000 people to our membership waiting list in the first 2 months–all from Youtube.
6. Host guests
If you’re looking to generate the maximum exposure possible, you absolutely need to host industry leaders as guests in videos.
When we first began our Youtube marketing, we were filming ourselves and growing steadily. Once we introduced guests, everything changed.
Our views doubled overnight when we released our first guest appearance and by time we had released all 11 of the guest’s videos, our views had quadrupled permanently.
Although guests can have an upfront cost, the ROI is incredible. Here are just a few reasons to have guest appearances on your channel:
Their fanbase becomes yours. (Now, obviously they don’t hand over their entire fanbase to you, but when they promote the videos they were hosted in, the traffic is astronomical–which typically does increase your subscriber count.)
Your daily view count is boosted. (Usually, the first released videos of them experiences a spike in views. Within a week, the hype usually whittles down, but the views don’t.)
You become more credible. (After you’ve hosted some name brand guests, your credibility within your industry increases. Flight Drummers has hosted some of the largest drummers in the industry for interviews, performances, lessons, etc. and since doing so, the we have been able to easily get massive sponsorships for our tour.)
7. Create playlists
Let’s face it, viewers like to spend as little time as possible searching for videos and more time watching them.
That’s where playlists come in. Typically, when somebody finds your channel, they like to easily find material that interests them. If you have a large quantity of videos and no playlists, finding the right video is like finding a needle in a hay stack. Very difficult.
Playlists allow you to categorize your videos into topics that act as a quick reference for viewers.
For example, if you had a channel that discussed business aspects and had 50 tutorials on marketing, social media, and blogging, then it would be beneficial to have playlists of relevant videos. (i.e. Content Marketing Tips, Social Media Marketing, etc.)
Pat Flynn does a great job with categorized playlists.
Overall, playlists provide several benefits:
More views
Expert Positioning
When a viewer is watching videos in a playlist, it usually encourages them to watch more videos, thus increasing view count. More importantly, playlists position your channel as an expert in it’s industry because they display your knowledge of relevancy in your videos.
8. Blast your release days
The final and most important step to creating a successful Youtube marketing strategy is to let everybody know your release dates.
At the end of videos, in annotations, on social media sites, or even in the description of your videos, let every viewer know the days of the week you release videos. (i.e. Mondays and Wednesdays)
Just like running a successful blog, it’s important to generate returning visitors because those are the people who turn into leads, and eventually sales. I recommend emailing your list and announcing a video release on your social sites at least 24-48 hours to maximize initial views, shares, and comments.
Wrapping it up
Whether you’ve considered utilizing Youtube as a marketing avenue or are looking to improve your Youtube marketing efforts, these steps can help you reach those goals. We were able to accumulate 500,000 Youtube views in the first 10 months of following these steps and our business wouldn’t be the same without them.

Hey Reddit! I've been compiling some quick hacks anyone can do to growth their business (or even just to make their first sale). I've used most of these tactics for my own store and found a range of success. I thought I'd share this with everyone! I hope it helps!A lot of these are specific to Ecommerce businesses, but most can also be applied to any business really. These are all the tips I have for now, but I'm always working on more. If you like these tips and want more, let me know - I'll make sure to keep adding to them and sharing with the community.1) The ‘About’ page is the 2nd most visited page on your site Your customers want to know who you are and what you stand for. So make sure your About page is high quality. It should say who you are, why you do what you do, what your brand's mission is, how long you've been in business, and how you approach customer service. Consumer these days are hyper informed, and transparency is very important these days. They want to do business with a brand that aligns with their own principles.2) Subscribe on your competitors’ email lists for daily inspiration We all have competitors in our spaces. If not direct, definitely indirect. Go onto their sites and subscribe to their newsletters (with a personal email address) and keep tabs on what they are up to. This way you'll be aware when they do flash sales, launch new products, or run promotions. If your competitor is a big store, you better believe they know what they are doing with their email lists. Every email they send is sent with a goal and objective in mind. It's then your job to study this and apply it to your own store.3) Order a pizza for your best customer Feel like doing something nice for a great customer? I've tried this before for a customer who netted me about $400 in profit. I called up Dominos and ordered an extra large cheese pizza (cost like $15) to his house. I knew he was home because he had called up my customer service number asking some questions and I asked him if he was home. After he got the pizza he called me back and thanked me for the "best customer service he has ever had". A couple months later I found out he told several of his friends and they all ended up buying my product too, which came out to be another $580 in profit. And all it took was ordering a $15 pizza for someone when they called me for support. The potential word of mouth referrals you can get from this is amazing. Especially considering we're now always online and documenting our day through social channels. A good deed has way more potential to get shared. Protip: Ordering cheese is the best way to go because no one has an issue with it.4) People only wait 3 secs for a page load. Decrease your image sizes Amazon found that they lose $1.6 billion per year if their website is 1 second slower. The average consumer only waits 3 seconds for a page to load on desktop and 5 seconds on mobile. Imagine if your store took longer than 5 seconds to load, you've just lost a potential buyer. Large images are the largest factor in slow load times. Most people don't know there is a way to save images to be web friendly or you can convert them online using free tools. It maintains quality and keeps picture sizes low.5) Start a Twitter chat with someone who is using one of your keywords Start a twitter chat with someone who mentioned needing or wanting a product you sell. Easy. Do this at least once a day and listen to your potential customers problems. This is called research and customer development. You can use https://twitter.com/search-advanced to search for your keywords, and Twitter will show you a list of all the relevant posts. Even if it doesn't lead to a sale, you've done customer research and learned what's important.6) Make an Infographic – they get shared more People love reading infographics because they pack a lot of interesting facts in one engaging post. It's hard to make one, just google "how to make an infographic". You can use www.canva.com for help in creating basic infographics for free.7) Calling customers leads to 32% increase in repurchases When someone buys from you, call them to say thank you. And then call them a few weeks later to see how they're liking your product. This will significantly increase repurchases. People want to do business with those they trust, and calling builds that trust.8) Calling abandoned cart buyers can result in 60% carts recovered If someone has filled out all their personal info but instead of clicking "buy" they close the window - they were intent to buy at one point. 68% of carts get abandoned so this is a huge problem for any store store. Just pick up the phone and call that person (make phone number fields at least optional if not mandatory). When you call them you build trust and a relationship - answer their questions, it's a hot lead! Recovery rates also depend on what type of product you sell, the most expensive, or the more niche, the better this tactic works.9) 70% of buyers consult reviews before purchasing you know you do this too. This is why getting reviews on your online store is crucial. Without reviews your store doesn't look trustworthy. When you're getting started and calling each and every customer of yours, simply ask them to leave a review - this is going to pay off bigger than you think.10) Create videos and publish them to your website Google indexes videos around the internet. So if you have videos and name them properly for keywords people are searching for, your site will have an advantage in search results. Also, YouTube is the 2nd most popular search engine and the fastest growing, so having relevant videos there would be a good idea.11) Build Slideshares of your content Slideshare is like the YouTube for slideshows and powerpoints. So putting your content in a presentation type format could help your audience discover your content and the be fits of your products. The more places your content can live online, the more likely a buyer is going to stumble on it during their search.12) 63% of your visitors are more likely to buy if you have reviews Reviews provide the social proof your audience is looking for before trusting you with their cash. Business is built on trust. Now that retail is moving online, the trust that was there with physical store is no longer is there. Now, we have to build trust through other means, and product and company reviews are key for that.13) Spread Value on Reddit Reddit is a massive traffic source. The caveat is you need to be a true redditor and not a promoter. If other redditors sense a promoter they will downvote you and you will lose credibility. Spend some time posting truly helpful links to the community and then politely and naturally post helpful links in comments when people ask for it. Other redditors will check your history to see what other posts you've made so as long as you have a history of non-promotion and helpfulness your post will be welcome.14) Create and publish memes Memes have the potential to go viral. A clever meme is going to make it very easy for your audience to tag their friends in it. Posting memes on social media is probably the best way to do this. There are several free sites where you can generate memes really quickly using popular meme images.15) Use Egobait. Write something amazing about an influencer in the hopes of developing a favorable business relationship Everyone loves being told they make great content and they are helpful. Find relevant influencers in your industry and send them a friendly and "ego stroking" email (handwritten letter if possible). Naturally bring up the product you sell and without asking for anything in return tell them you would like to gift them your product. More often then not they will make a post about your letter and product because. Why? Because influencers are always under pressure to post new original content and your letter will be exactly that opportunity for them.16) Make contributions to Wikipedia and build credibility This tip is an incredible way to build massive authority for your site so Google ranks it higher in search results. It takes some time but it can be worth massive traffic. Create a Wikipedia account and start fixing errors on pages. Could be grammar or spelling mistakes. Even more importantly, start contributing to existing articles in topics you're familiar with - add value to Wikipedia's knowledge base. When you've contributed enough times you will have built up credit which will allow you to edit reference sources on posts that are within your industry. Start writing blog posts that support Wikipedia articles and source your store's blog as the reference. Google's algorithms are going to think "wow this site must know what it's talking about if Wikipedia is linking to it, let me raise its ranking"17) Post for sale on Craigslist and Kijiji Posting on Kijiji and Craigslist is a great way to hack showing up first on search results. How it works: when someone searches for your product Kijiji and Craigslist have enough authority with Google to show up first. When they click on the link on the marketplace site, your product should show up on the first page on their site. The key to making sales online is to be everywhere you customers are. So that means being discoverable everywhere possible, all channels. Protip: of you buy sponsored posts on these classified sites it shows you first - definitely do this if you know there is a market for your product and if your audience is cost sensitive and looks for deals.18) Record tutorials on Youtube YouTube is the fastest growing search engine. It's also the second most popular search engine. If you don't have one, create a YouTube channel and post tutorial videos of your product. Do an "unpacking" video, show a tutorial of how to use it properly, answer FAQs in video format as well! Anything you can think of in video form, do it, post it on YouTube and embed them where you can in your store. This will help your SEO and help make your store look more trustworthy.19) Push your customers to leave reviews Positive reviews do your store many favors. 1. The social proof goes a long way to push a considering buyer to make their purchase. 70% of customers consult reviews before making a final purchase. 2. The content on your site helps your search engine optimization and leads to Google ranking you higher. 3. It builds trust and credibility for your business.20) Change the names of your images to keyword phrases Change the name of your image files to the keyword phrases your customers are using to search for your product or service. Leaving the image named "IMG07382" and only changing the alt tag is not enough. This will boost your SEO and will rank your images higher in image search results. Again, what makes Google so powerful is that it does a really good job at showing searchers what they are searching for, so the more you help Google find the right thing for its users the higher it will rank you.21) Answer people’s questions on Quora Quora has built up some great web authority. A lot of people looking for answers to their problems or questions go to www.quora.com Answer questions people have specific to your niche and you'll drive a few visits every so often to your site. It's very easy to do and has great reach. When you find an appropriate question related to your product or service link a blog to the answer rather than just the product link. It's also a great place to do research on what questions people have so you can get ideas for new unique blog posts for our own blog (then link them back as answers to the Quota questions).22) Product images should have white backgrounds This is a tip less about traffic and more focused on converting buyers to purchase. White background images look more professional and keep the look of your product pages consistent. There are too many online stores out there with inconsistent looking photos with different angle and even different settings. I would not trust these amateur looking product pages. You need to feature the product only. The white background images will make your store look much more professional and trustworthy. Use www.pixc.com for a great web focused image editor.23) Use the same dimensions for your product images Another important product photo tip is about dimensions. Please make sure our photos are the same dimension or aspect ratio (height:width). This makes your product pages look a lot more professional - square photos are even better (white backgrounds obviously). Professionalism is very important and the consistency of our photos speaks volumes to your audience when they are decided whether to trust you with their money or not. You can use Pixc for resizing your images.24) Popups can massively increase your email list – Experiment with them to see what works for your store I know one blog run my a close friend who gets 90% of his email subscribers from the popup. They're annoying, but they're effective. Pop ups or "lightboxes" show up on a customers screen after a little while of their scrolling. If somebody has already spent a minute on your website they're probably engaged with your content. Show them a pop up asking for their email address to send them a discount code. Email subscribers are important because you can push out new offers and even use those emails for retargeting in ads. Once you have enough you can even host webinars and live Q&A tutorials. Build a following, it gives you a lot more free marketing options!25) Create a shipping and returns page If you call up a customer who abandoned their cart and ask them if they have any questions, I'll bet you the most frequent question they will ask is about shipping. People who are buying online want instant gratification (it's why same day shipping is so attractive). If you can't guarantee same day shipping it's important to be upfront about how long shipping will take so that at least there is a tangible number and expectation you can set. Your customer just wants to know when they can expect their package. Make it clear! Many customers who are shopping online will sometimes look for a reason NOT to buy, and not having a clear shipping timeline is enough for them to abandon. It's hard getting people to open their wallets and pull out their credit cards. Don't give them a reason not to.26) Skype with your best customers and record the video I've said it before and I'll say it again. Reviews are crucial to building trust and developing a relationship with potential buyers. Reviews are a must for online sales. No one will trust you with their money without social proof these days. Videos are also another important content medium. Google appreciates websites with videos so it's also good for your search ranking. Put those together and you have video reviews. It's not hard, call your best customer each month (or each week if you have enough sales) and ask their permission to screen record an interview. Add it to your YouTube channel and also embed them onto a dedicated website page.27) Put shipping details directly on the product pages But if it's actually pretty fast, you need to tell them. In addition to having a page just on Shipping on your site, add the shipping expectations on the product page itself. It's going to be on your customers mind so answer their question before they either need to ask you about it, or assume it's slow and go elsewhere.28) Check for typos on your website. Looking unprofessional is the worst If I'm on an online store and I find a website with typos, I immediately discredit the site as amateurish. One of the most important things when you're running your online store is trust. Looking trustworthy, building trust, growing trust, maintaining trust! Typos are the fastest and easiest way to lose that trust. Zero typos and grammar mistakes mean you have zero visitors in your site questioning your credibility. People want to buy from professionals, not amateurs.29) Create unboxing videos and link them on your product pages Unboxing videos are clips of you opening the box or package with your product. It helps your customer understand exactly what they're getting. This tip helps you two fold. 1. Search engine optimization. By creating new content that is original and unique to your site, you help Google rank you higher. Create your YouTube channel and make videos - even add the unboxing video to your video FAQ page. 2. It makes clear what your customer will be getting in the mail. When they see your package on screen it will help them visualize themselves receiving your package in the mail. Show the process of opening the shipping box, an inner package box if you have it, take out any individual pieces. If you have access to a good microphone go ahead and talk about the process, otherwise you could just overlay some brand friendly music over the video. I use the OverheadPro phone stand to make my videos. You don't need expensive equipment to do this.30) Write a personal email to each customer If you're doing less than 20 orders per day this shouldn't be hard. Call if you can! What should you say? Personally thank them for their order, ask them if there is anything they need help with, and leave it open for them to reach out at anytime. It's important that you thank them for supporting a small business. Reaching out to customers personally is also a great way to build a relationship and get feedback about your product. If you get a good response make sure you ask for a review (remember how we talked about its importance?) or a referral to their friends.31) Create video FAQs for your most common questions Customers buying online have almost unlimited questions. Because they can't touch the product, don't have a live person in front of them and have to consciously pay for something and put trust in a store they've never physically seen. They want their questions answered. Questions about shipping times, returns, who pays for returns, warranty, how to clean/install/assemble/fix etc etc etc. Long story short, you must have an FAQ page. And in-line with our ongoing emphasis of having video content, record your answers to questions in video form on YouTube and also embed them into your FAQ page. This will help with SEO and also help your customers put a face to your business.32) Buy misspells of your domain This is an overlooked strategy but buying misspellings of your domain name can lead to significant new visits. If you get 10 visits per month from a misspelled domain, having 10 equals 100 new visits per month. Now if you know your conversion rate 100 extra visits can mean an extra couples sales.33) Run a promo on a deals site You can offer sites like Groupon or other deals sites a promotion for their customers. These sites are always looking for merchants to work with. Additionally, a better idea for you if you want to stay more targeted is to reach out to blogs or other service websites that would share the same audience as you. Offer a deal exclusively for their audience and they will be happy to share it with. It's a perk for their audience for being a subscriber of their site and it makes them look good too.34) Translate your store content to more languages I can't understate the value of this tip. You already know that English is not the first language for the majority of the worlds population. So check out some of these stats: 72.1% of consumers spend most or all of their time on websites in their native language 72.4% of consumers say they are more likely to buy from a site with info in their language 56.2% consumers said the ability to obtain information in their own language is more important than price. Here are the top 10 languages ordered by online sales: 1. English 2. Chinese 3. Japanese 4. German 5. Russian 6. Portuguese 7. French 8. Italian 9. Spanish 10. Arabic You can use a free tool like Google Translator to get started and then hire a real translator to polish it up.35) List on price comparison engines for more traffic List your products on price comparison websites. Many of them are free to list, out your product up there for two reasons: 1. SEO. Your product and links back to your store will help Google rank your results higher because now Google will think other popular sites like your product. 2. Because your competitors are probably already also doing it. If you don't even show up for the fight, you've lost by default. Your audience is checking out price comparison sites and you aren't even listed it's like you don't even exist. If someone is on a price comparison site looking for the product you sell, they are highly interested buyers and they will pay attention to you when making their purchasing decision.36) Add sharing buttons to your pages and encourage visitors to share The second most weighted metric for google ranking is supposedly Facebook shares. Make your product pages easy to share. There are tones of page sharing plugins you can put in your blog and in your product pages. These plugins allow your audience to share on their social channels with one click and makes it easier for you to gain viral traffic to those pages. You probably won't get tones of shares, but even a few shares will mean potentially hundreds more impressions on your sharer's friends.37) Subscribe to ‘HARO’ for daily free PR leads Everyone do this right now. HARO stands for "Help A Reporter Out" There are tens of thousands of journalists on HARO looking for quotes, sources and experts for their content. When you sign up and select which industry, niche, or general area you know enough about, you will get an email when a reporter is looking for your expertise. For example. Let's say you run a cake decorating supply online store. If a journalist is looking for quotes for a piece they are writing about the rise in wedding cake prices, you would be alerted to reach out and give a statement. If they select you, you and your store will be featured in the article. This is a great tip because it's free and can potentially drive tones of traffic. If the articles are for online posting (which they probably will be) it will be great for your SEO if you can get them to backlink back to your store URL.38) Send free samples to Instagram influencers Find social media influencers in your niche and send them free samples of your product. Make sure you thank them for the content they continue to put out and offer to help them with their goals before you ask for something in return! It's not just about customer relationship development, but also developing relationships with leaders in your industry.39) Use someone’s product and let them tell your story If you're using any apps to help you run your store (like cart abandon recovery apps, product review apps, translation apps, retargeting apps, themes, shipping apps, the list could go on forever) reach out to them for a feature. Simply write a blog post for them already with yourself as a case study. Talk about why you started your store, what your store is and what it's about, how you met challenges, and how their app resolved those challenges for you. App marketers are always looking for new original content, so serve it up for them on a silver platter. They will probably post it on their blog or newsletter and now some of their audience will be directed to your store.40) Sponsor a ‘Thank You’ page on another site This may not be the cheapest traffic source but it could work for the right type of store. If there is a well aligned complimentary or supplementary store or service to your own niche site, consider sponsoring their "thank you" page. This page is the confirmation page customers see when they make a purchase. If they make a purchase on the store you've sponsored, your information with a link to your site would show and potentially link them to you. Another way to get a similar outcome would be to batch your product offering on the other site and recruit the site to be your affiliate and sell your goods through their store.41) Automate the sharing of your social media posts Consistency of sharing relevant and brand friendly content is 80% of a good social media strategy. Invest some time upfront to find a few dozen articles, infographics, memes, videos, etc that fit your brand messaging and your marketing strategy.42) When you’re starting, promote the fact you’re local Write which city you're from on your Instagram bio, Twitter bio and Facebook Page. When you're starting out it's easier to start building traction and sales in your locale because your city is more likely to support you. It will be easier for you to get customers to care if they think you're around the block. Once you start growing you can take the city off, but having it early makes your brand more relatable.43) List your products on Etsy, be more discoverable The more places your brand and products show up online the better. These days customers don't just search one place for something. They might find your product on your store but then search for similar stuff on www.etsy.com or Amazon too. The more places you show up the more the customer will develop a relationship and recognition of your brand and buy from you.44) There’s no marketing strategy without keyword research You absolutely need to know how your audience is using search to find solutions to problems. You need to find the patterns of search keywords so that you can build your content strategy around this.45) Add Alt tags to your images so Google knows what it’s of It's crazy how many people don't do this. Google "how and why you should use Alt Tags".46) Meta tags tell search engines what your site is about. Optimize it. Same as above, Google "how to use Meta Tags" and you'll see why this is so important for Google to index you.47) Edit titles and descriptions of your store and product pages Again, you need to help Google index you better. The more you help Google rank you, the better Google will actually rank you :) Funny how that works, eh?48) Treat customers like assets, not like transactions Can't stress this enough. If the only think you do today is call a customer and say "thank you" - you're doing a good job. You will learn what your customer wants. It's 7x cheaper to retain a customer than to acquire a new one.49) Use Snip.ly to drive traffic back to your store when you share someone else’s content With Snip.ly you share that link through your social media accounts, Snip.ly will add a Call To Action to your own page. A big button at the bottom left of the page pushing your audience back to your own store. If you've done the previous tip and are posting links regularly, this is a great hack to get some traffic back to your site through one of your shares.50) Don't be afraid to try new hacks The name of the game is experimentation. Something might work for me, but not for you. Something might work for you and not for me. The idea is as long as you keep trying new things and figuring things out, you're loving the process. And loving the process is 80% to success. I know it's super cliche, but it's SO true. It was experiments like this that drove me to achieving 10k per month for my online store. I know it's not a HUGE number like some of these "gurus" will promise you, but I'm happy with it because my margins are like 50% and so I can maintain myself because of it. And I only work like 2 hours per day.

8 Reasons You’re Not Getting Any Website Traffic (And How To Fix It)
By Julian Sakanee
It’s tough.
You feel as if you’ve done everything right, but your traffic numbers say otherwise.
Clearly, there’s something wrong.
Maybe you’re just a tweak or two away from opening the floodgates?
But the question remains… what is the reason behind your traffic-poor website?
Fortunately for you, you’ve come to the right place. In this post, we’ll show you legitimate possibilities why your website isn’t performing and how to fix them.
Let’s get started.
Here are eight reasons why your traffic isn’t growing.
1. Your SEO game is weak
Google is the best source of free traffic. But getting your content within the top 10 results is a tough task. Only the best of the best manage to be featured up there.
That means your content needs to be top notch. That’s the start.
But there are several other factors at play, including setting up an XML sitemap, installing an SEO plugin, optimizing your content for keyword search terms, and more.
Without all these, your chances at ranking high in search engines are slim. Just missing one important factor can result in very low rankings.
Here’s the fix
Using WordPress SEO is a multi-step process that can be difficult at first. But with a little practice, it can become second nature.
Install and configure Yoast SEO
Yoast SEO is probably the best WordPress SEO plugin. It’s easy to use and it gets the job done. To get started, install the plugin and use the configuration wizard to help you with the setup.
If you need more help, WP Beginner’s got an easy-to-follow guide.
Install Google Analytics, Search Console and an XML Sitemap
Everybody knows Google Analytics, Search Console and an XML sitemap are essential.
Google Analytics allows you to keep track of your site’s overall traffic. It’s also used to confirm your website with the Search Console.
The Search Console allows you to keep track of your search presence. And XML sitemaps provide a way for Google’s bots to read your site.
These step-by-step guides will teach you everything you need to know: The Absolute Beginner’s Guide to Google Analytics by Moz and How To Add Your Website To Google Search Console by Yoast.
Use Yoast’s On Page SEO feature to help you optimize your content
This is a neat feature that keeps your on page optimization on par.
First, it starts by asking you for your target keyword.
Then it analyzes your page and shows you how well you’ve optimized it around your keyword.
Green = good. Orange = OK. Red = bad.

2. Your backlink profile is whack
Backlinks play a key role in your search rankings.
Most pages that rank in the top three or so usually have high-quality links directing browsers to them. At the very least, their domain has heaps of authority, meaning that their link profile consists of dozens and dozens of backlinks from their industry’s best.
If you haven’t tried any link building in the past, chances are you don’t have many backlinks.
And if this is the case, that’s likely the #1 reason why you’re not getting any traffic from Google.
Here’s the fix
The best way to get started is by blog commenting. Most blogs give out no-follow links to their commenters.
No-follow links don’t really carry much link juice, which means they rarely help with your search rankings. But that doesn’t matter…
The best link profiles have a good mixture of no-follow and do-follow links.
To perfect your blog commenting technique, here are a few simple steps.
Go to one of your niche’s top blogs.
Pick a blog article you’re interested in and read it in full.
Scroll to the comments section, fill out the form and leave a quality comment.
Rinse and repeat.
But as I said… blog comment links aren’t exactly going to get you #1 rankings. You need to do better than that.
To build do-follow links, one of the best techniques is to write a guest post. Most blogs allow guest authors a link or two. Usually, one within the content and another in your author bio.
Here’s an example from one of my first guest posts. It’s from a site called Successful Blogging.
See the in-content link?
There are more in my author bio link.
Another link building strategy I’d recommend is using resource pages.
Resource pages are basically link pages. They usually have dozens of links pointing to high-quality content.
I’ve built several quality links using this method myself. Including this one from Page One Power.
Here is some further reading I think you’ll find useful:

3. Your target keywords are out of your league
We all know keywords are incredibly important to search engine rankings.
However, the more times a keyword gets entered into a Google search, the more likely it becomes targeted by the very best writing in an industry. Which means it becomes 100 times harder to beat your competitors for a spot in the top 10.
Even if your content is the best, there’s no guarantee you’ll be able to achieve high rankings… the SERPs are unfair like that. They usually give the top rankings to authority websites such as Amazon, Entrepreneur and WebMD.
So if you’re targeting keywords like how to quit smoking, chances are you’ll probably never get a top 10 ranking.
Here’s the fix
You can choose to either gain authority, or target long-tail keywords.
If you want to build an authority website, you’ll need to work very hard and be very patient. Becoming an authority isn’t easy. It can take months or even years.
The type of work you’d have to do includes guest blogging, interviews, massive link building, and creating 10x content.
On the flipside, if you target long-tail keywords, which are search terms containing more than 4-5 words and are highly specific, you will have a much higher chance at driving search traffic.
I’d recommend mixing both of the two options together… target the long-tail, and while you’re at it, do everything you can to grow your authority.
For example, every time you create a blog post, make sure it’s 10x better than your competitors’.
Also, consider setting up some guest posts on your niche’s top blogs. To start, I’d suggest one guest post per month (maybe even per week).
Here’s a great post on How to Generate 20,000 Monthly Visitors Through Long-Tail Search by Neil Patel and another one on 25 Ways To Build Online Authority by Vinny La Barbera.
4. Your content isn’t worthy
Your content is the primary reason why people come to visit your blog.
If you’re only pumping out mediocre blog posts, no one will want to stop by for a read. No matter how great your marketing tactics are, if your content sucks, so will your traffic flow.
Even if you pay for your traffic… no one will stay past a hot minute.
Driving traffic is one thing. Getting them to stay, is another. And doing it on a consistent basis, that’s the million-dollar question.
Here’s the fix
It all starts with high-quality content that’ll make your readers stop and say, “I never thought of it like that before!”
Know what I’m saying?
You should be trying to write incredibly high-quality posts that are optimized for the web.
Here’s a checklist for you:
Short paragraphs
No fluff or gobbledygook
Use bold and italics for emphasis
Include plenty of images/multimedia
Include real-life data
Back up your claims with proof, sources and links
There’s a lot that goes into creating readable (not just scannable) web content.
So find the right topics. Use keyword tools to find highly-searched phrases. Take advantage of Google’s autocomplete and related searches. Explore Quora and other online communities to find questions being asked within your niche.
If you study your target audience, you will find the right topics to write about, which will then generate more traffic.
These content hacks will tell you everything you need to know: How You Can Create Content That Generates 400,000 Targeted Visitors by OK Dork and How to Create 10 x Content: Whiteboard Friday by Moz.
5. You are spending too much time CREATING and not enough PROMOTING
We all know our blogs cannot live without high-quality content.
If you consistently create a blog post every week, there’s a pretty good chance you’ll generate a nice flow of organic traffic.
However, nothing is guaranteed in the blogging world. Especially when it comes to getting fresh eyes on your content.
Have you heard of the saying, ‘publish and pray’? I first heard it from Brian Dean of Backlinko.
Basically, it means a blogger with little to no authority who publishes blog post after blog post, without any promotion, in hopes of magically driving traffic from unknown sources.
It’s like… you hit the publish button and pray someone will read it, without even knowing how that someone will find your blog post.
But the thing is, no matter how epic your content is, if you have no brand/website authority, no one will find it in a search engine or newsfeed.
That’s why you have to aggressively promote your content.
Here’s the fix
Have you ever heard of the 80/20 rule? Well, it applies to content marketing, also. Spend 80% on promotion, 20% on creation.
But how do you promote content, I hear you ask?
Well, there’s more than one way to do it, and there’s more to it than sharing it on social media.
The best way to promote your content is with a little bit of influencer marketing.
Influencer marketing is where you leverage an industry influencer’s reach or audience to gain some exposure for yourself. Which is why it’s perfect for content promotion.
I recommend reading the following resources:

6. Your headlines aren’t click-worthy
If your headlines are not compelling, chances are you won’t get many clicks. No matter how well you rank in search engines or how many times you show up in social media newsfeeds.
You see, headlines are the first thing internet users see before making that ultimate decision of whether or not they want to visit your site.
If their minds tell them no, it’s on you.
It doesn’t matter how awesome your blog content is. If no one clicks it, no one sees it.
Here’s the fix
Play with a bunch of headline formulas. There are tons out there. And all you have to do is fill in the blanks, basically.
One of the easiest formulas I’ve used, which is great for list posts, is this… [number] + [adjective] + [keyword] + [promise]
Here are some examples:

See?
The formula can also be used to craft how-to headlines. But instead of adjectives, you use adverbs. Check it out…

How to Magically Bake Delicious Cookies Everyone Will Love
Try it for youself. If you want more information, Neil Patel has written a great Step-by-Step Guide to Writing Powerful Headlines and Audience Bloom has an inspirational resource on 101 Title Ideas for Your Next Blog Post.
7. Your website’s user experience is horrible
If you’re not consistently getting website traffic, there’s a good chance it might be because of your website’s UX.
If your site isn’t user-friendly, no one will want to visit it. No matter how great your content is.
If you publish something your audience actually wants to read, they might not even come and read it. They’ll just go to someone else for the same information.
That’s how important your user experience is.
Here’s the fix
There’s a lot that goes into a user-friendly website.
One of the main things is the loading time. If your site takes more than three seconds to fully load, you can expect your visitors to hit the ‘back’ button.
Another thing is the mobile responsiveness. A couple years ago, Google put out an update where mobile users were the focus. If your site isn’t mobile-friendly, you likely aren’t going to rank in the mobile SERPs.
Yet another thing is that Google and internet users themselves don’t like intrusive popups. The Big G actually stated in their mobile update that it is against pop-ups that block the reader from reading content (you can read more about that here).
The last thing I want to mention here is blog design. There’s a lot that goes into a well-designed blog that’ll make your visitors visit and your readers read.
So be sure to take a look at the handy links below!

8. Your social media presence is practically non-existent
Social media has become a big part of traffic generation over the years. It’s not all about Google and search engines anymore.
So having some presence within your social communities can mean a lot to your traffic.
If you can grow a good following on networks like Twitter and LinkedIn, a single share/post can result in hundreds of website visitors.
And it’s not just the major social networks that matter. There are plenty of online communities out there that aren’t on sites like Facebook.
Take Reddit, for example. There are thousands of ‘sub-reddits’ that get thousands of followers.
There are also forums. For example, if you’re in the marketing space, there’s Warrior Forum. It has thousands of active members. Tens of thousands, even.
But if your social profiles look something like this…
…you won’t be able to get any social media or forum traffic.
Here’s the fix
Become part of a social media community. Be active and contribute.
Start by choosing one or two sites to begin with. For example, Facebook and Twitter.
For networks like Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter, you will need to fill out professional-style profiles to do it right.
Why? Because before I follow someone on Twitter, for instance, I usually take a quick peek at their profile. I read their bio and a few of their latest posts to see if there’s anything I can learn from them (or at the very least, to see if we share interests).
To be an active contributor to your chosen social media community, answer questions, provide exclusive tips/content, offer support, build rapport and commenting on other people’s posts.
After a while, you’ll start to gain some influence. When this happens, you will be able to start directing some of your group’s traffic to your own blog.
Here is a great article outlining 12 Proven Tactics for Rapidly Growing Your Presence on Social Media on Entrepreneur and another one on Sprout Social that will teach you 6 Ways to Immediately Boost Social Media Traffic.
Wrapping up
Driving traffic every day isn’t just for top-performing sites like Forbes, Authority Nutrition and TechCrunch.
Sure, it can be difficult. But with some hard work, you can get in on the action too.
You just need to master how to do it, and practice makes perfect.
