Will my website get more viewers by doing nothing?

Question

I currently get about 450 viewers a day (but only for the past 5 days)

Now if I just update my site every other day with pictures and stuff, do you think the same people will return and if anything, more people will visit the site?

this is by doing no advertising, do you think the view count will stay the same?

Answer 1

It's highly unlikely that your site will stay the same if you do nothing.

Do you know of any big High St. stores that just rely on passing trade? They all do a certain amount of advertising - there's a lot of competition out there.

Article advertising is an absolutely free way of getting more traffic to your site and it's not hard to do. There's loads of tips, advice and information at http://quickmoneyideas.info which will get you started.

You also need to be keeping a list of all your customers so you can email them when you have anything new on your site or any new offers.

If you really want to build a business, don't rely on people finding you. You have to let as many people as possible know that you're there.

Answer 2

Depends on if you have your website optimized for the search engines.  The more popular your keywords are the more likely you will be indexed higher and higher on the search engines.  I also heard that by pinging - Do a Yahoo search - that the SE's will come. Pinging is done by blogs to get more traffic.  

IMPORTANT - you should be pinging only after every time you update your blog with new content.  Otherwise it won't help and you may be penalized.

You can also try a free traffic Exchange service like TrafficSwarm at http://www.trafficswarm.com/go.cgi?56268...

You can try article marketing at an article submission service like http://www.ezinearticles.com and link back to your website in the resource box for your articles.

You can also comment on popular blogs like John Chow's or Joel Comm's that allow linkbacks to your URL. Do a Yahoo Search.

Create a video and upload it to YouTube with your URL flashed on the screen.
