Short version for : backlinks still matter, but they are not a shortcut. The community answers here (for example , and ) are correct that promotion and on‑site work both matter — the important part is the order and the signal quality. Chasing volume of links or listing every promotion channel is less effective than fixing the site, improving a few high‑value pages, and earning attention for genuinely useful content.

Start with a quick audit and a priority list: find 3–7 pages that already get impressions or have reasonable rankings and make them clearly useful to real people — better headings, clear answers, evidence of first‑hand experience, and author info where relevant. This “people‑first” approach is what Google recommends (focus on satisfying visitors and demonstrating experience/expertise), and it scales better than producing lots of thin pages. Google: Creating helpful, reliable, people-first content. (developers.google.com)

Treat links as the outcome of creating value. Aim for editorial, relevant mentions from sites your audience already reads: original data, useful tools, case studies, or detailed how‑tos that others will naturally cite. Avoid mass, automated, or disguised paid link tactics; when a link is commercial, mark it correctly (rel="sponsored" / rel="nofollow") — Google explicitly warns about link spam and qualifying paid links. Google: A reminder on qualifying links and our link spam update. (developers.google.com)

Measure and pick quick wins: use Search Console’s Performance reports to find pages with high impressions but low CTR or pages ranking in positions 6–20 (these are easiest to move to page 1). Improve meta titles/snippets, consolidate thin/duplicate pages, and fix mobile/page‑speed issues (Core Web Vitals) so visitors stay and share. Make 3–5 focused improvements, measure for 4–8 weeks, then promote those improved assets — that sequence (fix > improve content > promote) produces sustainable traffic growth.

Social Bookmarking, Classified, Blog Comments, Article submission will add traffic to your websites. Regularly update article on blog and provide back links to your relevant web pages.

social bookmarking itself generate quality traffic if your submissions are in proper category and also useful to the viewers.
secondly forum posting is the second way to get traffic, post to relevant threads and put your link in your signature

Yes, creating backlinks is very useful to get higher traffic. I think it is the better way of getting traffics.

First things first, there are three main ways to attract traffic to your website. What you're asking about (backlinks resulting in higher rankings is just one of them).

  1. Search engine optimization

You find keywords, which are relevant, often searched for and face little competition.

You write great content and make your site overall appealing to users.

You build links with keywords (a much broader spectrum that a couple of main ones) in anchors.

You eventually get high ranking. And traffic.

2.Search engine marketing

Your traffic are people clicking pay per click ads.

3.Driving traffic directly

That is so-called referral traffic. People come to your website through a link you (or somebody) else leave elsewhere.

How can you get referral traffic? Here are some options for you:

(a) forum marketing. You help people on forums (relevant to your website thematically) answering their question in detail and providing link to your blog where you give an even more detailed answer to the question. People think: wow, this guy is knowleadeable and helpful, I'll read his blog regularly

(b) guest blogging. You write an article on somebody else's blog (relevant to your website thematically), leaving a link in your bio section. People think: wow, this guy is an expert and a great writer, I should bookmark his website.

(c) social media. You work at social media engagement on twitter, fb, g+ and such. People come through links you share.
