There are endless possibilities to each part of the mentioned above. Your creativity plays a key role in all of this.

In this article I’m going to show you how to drive traffic to your blog or website in an ordered way. I also emphasis on things that are available to everyone – not something like promote your website on a facebook page with 12 million followers.

So, let’s assume you’ve already created some interesting content with a nice headline which is the key element to driving traffic. Birds are not going to sing by themselves, so, what to do next? : 

1. Yahoo: Create an account on yahoo, then connect to yahoo questions and answers, you’ll find many categories where people ask their questions. in this moment, all you need to do is to find questions related with whatever you’d like to promote and answer them by putting your website as a source to your answers: It’s like telling people: Hey I have read an article on the internet, and from that I’m answering you. This is a nice way to drive interested people to your website. The benefit of this method is not only driving traffic to your website site, but also doing some SEO by putting a backlink to your article.

2.Quora: Quora is another website like yahoo answers where you will be able to put your link in your answer and drive more traffic. Many people search in google for various things and find Quora or Yahoo answers in the first pages.

3.Pinterest: There are some people who get thousands of visitors from pinterest only. When you pin your website into pinterest; interested people will find your link and access your website. The good thing is that if you have a wordpress blog you can automatize this and instead of pinning each link, a program will do that for you automatically: Pinterest automatic pin wordpress plugin is made for that.

4.Submit you website to Stumbleupon, do it once and forget about it, it will drive traffic for you while you are sleeping.

5.Promote your website on facebook groups that are related to your niche or join forums.

6.Create a promotional video on youtube. You can do it online in few minutes on websites like wevideo or youtube video editor.

7.Blog commenting is another way to drive more traffic. How many times you wanted to see what people think about an article and found a compelling message that redirects people to a website and you clicked on it?
