While it's great to get a multiple visitors one time on your site, it's even better to get returning visitors mulitple times. This means that your site really has an interest to them enough that they've bookmarked it.
Bookmarkers over time will lead to sales, and once you've sold to someone it's always easier to get them to buy from you a second time than getting them to buy the first! So is your site "sticky" enough to keep them coming back? Here are a few good ways to make your website "sticky" so that you get repeat visitors that are interested in your site: 1. Have frequently updated, fresh content. People aren't going to come back if your site stays the same all the time. If they've already got all the information they need from your site, why should they return? Make sure that the information is always new, fresh, and changing so that they have an incentive to return. Perhaps even give away prizes or rewards to make them return. Free gifts are a great motivator! 2. Your content must be valuable. Don't talk "small talk" and fill your site up with gimmicks, bells and whistles, and other page fillers. Make the content on your site actually useful to someone. Use relevant articles to your topic, maybe have free tools or calculators or something that are relevant to your product, or even just keep the people up to date about what's happening with your product. Refrain from using flashy animated objects, java applets, and midi files. These are only annoying to the surfer and it will discourage them from coming back. 3. Make your site easy to navigate. Especially if your site has got lots of competition on your product or service, maybe they'll choose your site over your competitor's site just by the sheer fact alone that they can get around your site easier! People want to get the information they need quickly and easily. Don't make it a challenge for them or they'll only become frustrated and click off of your site. Using these easy and common sensical tips you can make your website "sticky" and watch the traffic increase! About The Author
