Introduction
You’ve finally finished your website. You’re ready to share it with the world…but how? You can’t just sit back and expect people to knock on your door. There are many ways to drive traffic to your site, and we’ll go over each one in detail below:
Share your blog posts on social media.
- Share your blog posts on social media. There are many ways to share your blog posts on social media, but we recommend sharing them via a series of tweets or a Facebook post (or any other platform—you can even use Instagram). Posting one-off tweets may not be as effective as posting multiple links over time.
- Use hashtags on Instagram and Twitter. Hashtags are used in most social media platforms to help users track down specific content they’re interested in. Still, to succeed here, you must make sure the hashtag is relevant to your post and not already being used by someone else. If you aren’t sure where to start with searching for relevant hashtags for your brand or business, there are services like HashtagifyMe that can help identify trending topics.
Use hashtags on Instagram and Twitter.
Hashtags are a great way to find other people who are interested in the same things you are, and they’re also a great way to get your message out to a wider audience.
You can use hashtags on Instagram and Twitter. They’re an easy way to connect with other users who share common interests so that you can build relationships and collaborations with them. And if you have popular content, it’ll show up in the feeds of people who follow those hashtags! This means more followers will see your posts, giving them visibility.
Join Facebook groups
Facebook groups are a great way to drive traffic to your website. You can use them to connect with other people with similar interests and get them interested in your product or service.
To find groups, do a general search for the topic you want to promote on Facebook. If you’re selling a product related to dogs, for example, then type in “dogs” as the keyword for your search and look at what comes up:
Once you’ve found some relevant groups, go through each and see how many members they have (the number of followers). If there are a few people in the group already (less than 5k), it’s worth joining because there will be plenty of room left for growth! Now go ahead and join those groups by clicking ‘Join Group’ under each one’s name:
The next step is ensuring that everyone sees you’re active in these Facebook communities by posting valuable content every once in a while so that people start noticing who’s posting stuff about their niche area (you!). This way, when someone looks for advice or information from other people like themselves on topics such as dogs or whatever else might interest them relatedly, they’ll see yours instead because now all those posts from before meaning nothing since no one reads them anymore anyway…
Get involved with Reddit.
Another way to drive traffic to your site is by getting involved with Reddit. Reddit is a social news aggregation and discussion website that allows you to submit links to your site. Users can then vote on the links, which helps determine where they end up on the site’s pages. If enough people upvote your link, it will be pushed up the page so that more people can see it—and click through!
Guest posts on other blogs.
You can guest post on other blogs in your niche or industry or even to a similar audience. Many blog owners welcome guest writers and will offer you a byline or link back to your website. If you are lucky enough to write for an authority site known for attracting readers from all over the web, this can be very helpful for driving traffic toward your main site.
Take part in interviews and podcast episodes.
- Reach out to people who are interested in your subject. HARO connects journalists with relevant sources, and it’s a great way to get the word out about yourself and your expertise. You might even be able to land an interview on a popular blog or radio show!
- Be prepared for your interview by researching the topic beforehand, so you can give thoughtful answers instead of just reciting what you know from memory. Remember that practice makes perfect: if you do well on one interview, there will be more opportunities for you down the road (and if this interests you, then, by all means, go ahead and continue getting involved).

There are many ways to drive traffic to your site. You can do it yourself, pay someone else to do it for you, or use a combination of both.
You may already have a website and need more traffic.
