10 Useful Tips To Attract People To Your Web Site

And Keep Them Coming Back!!!
continued from last week

6. If you have expertise in a certain area you could offer free consulting to people who visit your web site. You could do this via e-mail or by telephone. People will consider this a huge value because consulting fees can be very expensive.

7. Give visitors a free entry into a contest you are running. The prizes should be something of interest or value to your visitors or relevant to your site's topics. Most people who enter will continually revisit your web site to get the results. Do not be discouraged if the first one or two contests do not set the world on fire. The word has to get out.

8. Let visitors download free software. It could be freeware, shareware, demos etc. You could even turn part of your site into a free software area and let other people sell it or give it away from this area. You do not need to produce the free software yourself. There are plenty of sources on the web. All you have to do is link to them.

9. Offer free online services or utilities from your web site. They could be search engine submitting, copy writing proofreading etc. The service or utility should be helpful to your target audience.


10. Give your visitors a free membership to your online club. People like to feel that they belong to something, why not your online club. You could also give away a free newsletter for club members only. The members will very likely want to contribute a large part of its content making it easy to source articles. If you offer them a link back to their own site your members will be queuing up to put content in your newsletter.
