Re: Increase web traffic with inbound marketing

I agree with this article, but must admit, that in developing countries still there are a lot of potential customers that don't use Internet. So outbound marketing model gives its way to inbound one, but outbound model still works. Moreover, I don't think that outbound marketing model will ever die at all .

Re: Increase web traffic with inbound marketing

True, setting up an affiliate marketing program. indeed can help u with the traffic.

You can then hire affiliates to promote your services and products. In doing so, they will direct the traffic from their web pages to your web site.

This way, you will also be able to get in contact with your target clients in a fairly less time. However, you will be required to pay a certain percentage of your profit as commission to your affiliate marketing partners.

Landing Page is a page intended to identify the beginning of the user experience resulting from a defined marketing effort. Landing pages are often optimized for specific keywords, audiences, or calls to action, since they represent a touch point or an opportunity to present your message to the visitor.

They have a particular importance in conveying information to motivate the visitor to become more engaged with the site.Landing pages are designed to be highly relevant to the advertisement or search listing and encourage users to complete a "call to action".

The landing page is also known as the "click through URL" or "destination URL".

Re: Increase web traffic with inbound marketing

I advocate doing "inbound marketing" where you help yourself "get found" by people already learning about and shopping in your industry. In order to do this, you need to set your website up like a "hub" for your industry that attracts visitors naturally through the search engines, through the blogosphere, and through the social media sites. I believe most marketers today spend 90% of their efforts on outbound marketing and 10% on inbound marketing and I advocate that those ratios flip.
