There are two sure fire ways to increase hits. Buy them and generate them. Buying them is a temporary solution and can cost anywhere from $0 to $1 per hit. The free hits you purchase, cost you more than nothing. They cost you repeat visits and a lot of traffic. This is because in order to receive your free hits, you must utilize undesirable pop up or pop down windows. I, like most web surfers/consumers avoid sites that utilize pop up windows. If I encounter them (sometimes up to 10 new pop up windows per page) I don’t go back. That’s lost traffic for you. So what you bought was lost traffic. When paid for, hits you purchase do bring in traffic, and if you’re paying closer to $1 per hit, chances are it’s quality, targeted traffic. That’s what you want, but can you afford to forever pay for those hits? If not, read on.
If you’re like me, you would prefer a steady increase in constant traffic. This can be achieved through diligent work. Work that you can do and won’t cost you anything but your time. To build a solid stream of visitors you need content. It’s that simple. If you don’t have any content, forget your share of traffic from the number one method used to locate information and products. Search engines. The most valuable source of highly targeted free hits on the web. If you don’t have the search engines working with you, you don’t stand a chance. The new information age is becoming a very viable solution for many industries. There was a time, not so long ago, when the cost of building a web business was beyond the reach of the average small to medium sized business. When programming was in high demand and programmer’s wages were even higher. As business after business went bust and reality set in, demand dropped and designers and programmers began to realize that their skills and services were no longer worth US$150 per hour.
