How To Get Your Site Audience To
Stick
Site stickiness plays a key role in long term profitable
results for any website owner. You need someone or a group of
people to regularly visit your site and stay there. Here are
some basic tips to get you started.
1. Create a free toolbar for your site
This might just contain the bare essentials like your homepage
link, services or product links, portfolio lists, contact page,
and your about me page. You may get your free toolbar at
conduit.com.
2. Create a blog
This could be in the format blog.yourdomain.com which will make
personal or corporate updates easier for you and also easier
for your readers. Link to it from your homepage.
3. Create a forum
This is usually to gauge feedback from your website users and
to get to know what they want. It helps reach out to your users
and make sure they're happy with your site thus keeping you
happy in the long term. Feedback is necessary if you wish to
increase customer satisfaction.
4. Use a reliable hosting company
By using reliable hosting that will not fail you in times of
high traffic you will not lose valuable customers. This is a
must if you want to retain visitors to your site as there is
nothing worse than having customers come to your site and be
displayed with a blank page or error message. When renting your
website through Rent Your Site you can be assured your site is
hosted with only the best hosting companies.
5. Run contests
By running the occasional contest at your site you can attract
visitors and create excitement. Plan for it carefully and
prepare your sponsors. It could be adequate to place a message
on your homepage and then display full details on your blog.
This will encourage your audience to check from time to time
for updates.
6. Work on the web design
Really brainstorm about the best design for your website.
Ensure that your site is easy for your visitors to navigate
through and get the information they are after. When renting or
purchasing a site through us we will work with you to create
the site you are after.
