How To Increase Your Online Sales

Are you looking to increase your online sales? Are you unsure as to how to go about increasing your online sales? I have had a number of websites on the web since 1999 and during these last eight years feel that I have learned a great deal about what it required to successfully promote a website. In this article, I will be giving free tips and advice about how to gain more traffic to your website and more sales from your website. I now offer a web promotion service and always ask a potential client: “Which are your key phrases that you would like to dominate the search engines with?\" The amount of webmasters who state a phrase that is not even on their homepage often astounds me; this is a very basic error. This is therefore the first tip; ensure that your key phrases are on the homepage of your website. There are likely to be some people who visit your website and then return perhaps a year or two later to purchase a product from the site. If the site looks exactly the same then this person may not know if the site is still operational and may look elsewhere or email you before deciding to purchase. On a similar theme, if the copyright of the site has not been updated to show the current year people will also not know if your services are still current. Basically the point I am trying to make here is that you should be updating your site with fresh content each month and ensure that each year you update the date of the copyright. Offering the visitors to your website something for free is always a good idea. The chance to join a free newsletter or to receive a free e-book is a way of keeping your potential clients thinking about you and your site. To attract additional visitors to your site, it is important that you go about increasing the number of backward links that are pointing to your site. The higher the page rank and trust rank of these sites, the better.
