Traffic is referred to as the influx of Customers or targeted buyers visiting your website in search for a solution to their problem.
Website Traffic is the most important part of any internet business; That is why most website owners crave to have a minimum of 100 to 1000 daily visitors for their website. Even as some website owners claim to have millions of people visiting their sites on a daily basis.
The interesting thing about getting Traffic is that you may have millions of visitors coming to your site but if these people are not targeted traffic, then you will have no sales or very low conversion rate.
So, what is TARGETED TRAFFIC?
Targeted Traffic is those set of people that visit your website because they are completely interested in what your website offers.
These people are 95% money-in-hand customers that will buy your products or order for your services if you offer exactly what they need. Thus, they are 100% involved in your Niche.
(Niche is another name for Interest or Focus. We use this term most of the time on the Internet terrain.)
Examples of Targeted Traffic are below:
NICHE
|
FOCUS (SUB-NICHE)
|
TARGETED TRAFFIC
|
SPORTS
|
FOOTBALL
|
FOOTBALL FANS, ANALYSTS, FOOTBALL ENTHUSIAST AND THOSE WHO GET INVOLVED IN FOOTBALL BETTING. ETC.
|
HEALTH AND FITNESS
|
WEIGHT LOSS
|
NURSING MOTHERS OR PEOPLE WITH GENERAL OBESITY PROBLEMS. ETC.
|
INTERNET SERVICES
|
WEB DEVELOPMENT & DESIGN
|
WEBSITE OWNERS, WEB DEVELOPMENT STUDENTS, GRAPHICS DESIGNERS, PROGRAMMERS. ETC.
|
In the Table above you will observe that there is a Niche, A Sub-Niche and then the Targeted Traffic.
Most times the niche is a very wide one and then you can narrow down to a specific sub-niche. You may even go further to reduce your competition by compressing your Niche into a more specific community.
For Example in the Sport Niche we can have the compression in this format:
SPORTS –> FOOTBALL —> ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE
You will discover that the more focused your Niche the better your Targeted Traffic will convert.
ADVANTAGE OF GETTING TARGETED TRAFFIC:
The purpose behind getting targeted traffic is quite simple to understand and its advantages are very numerous.
Let’s assume your Website is about Technology and how to use new applications and tech tools, if you visit mini-job sites like Fiverr or SeoClerks to drive traffic to your website, what you will realize is that even when the seller sends a million visitors to your website as agreed, you may still not have one single conversion or subscription, not to talk of sales!
The reason being that, the entire traffic sent to your website has no iota of interest in your Niche.
They may be an influx of people from several other Niches like Football, Fashion, Make Money Online, Health, Body Building, Romance etc.
These people will only click on the link to visit your website out of curiosity and close the tab immediately they see you don’t have anything in their interest to offer them.
The worst part is that the traffic sent to your website will definitely eat up a large chunk of your website’s bandwidth for nothing!
Now let’s raise another situation here, what if the seller sends your website link to just 500 highly Targeted Visitors that are seriously in need of your product? SALES! SALES!! AND MORE SALES!!!
So, your best bet is to focus your website campaigns on Highly Targeted traffic.
THE BEST METHODS TO GET TARGETED TRAFFIC:
Getting High Quality targeted Traffic is a very important issue if you are serious about making a living online.
Therefore I have Lined up a few great ways to get targeted traffic ABSOLUTELY FREE or for a small FEE.

5. USE OF TRAFFIC BUILDING SOFTWARES.
Another method of driving Traffic to your website is the use of Traffic Software.
What Traffic software simply does is to pop-up links to your website on vulnerable websites all over the internet.
The software usually hacks the user’s browser and pops open a webpage which wasn’t there before. When the user clicks on the link, He or She will be directed to your website.
This is what happens when you see websites popping up on your screen without your permission.
Although it should also be noted that most of the clicks you see as a result of using Traffic Software is Bot related. (Not Real Humans)
The Advantage of using Traffic software is that it gives your website a boost of recognition, especially when you have the Visitor’s counter at the Side Bar of your website showing how many people have visited your website for the past week, month or since inception.
When you constantly make use of these free or paid resources and tools, you will start to see tremendous growth in your followership and a remarkable increase in your website sales.
