There are several ways of bringing traffic to your website. One of them is direct traffic (where people who knows about your website, views it directly). The other is traffic via search engines where people search for their respective keywords and if your site appears in their search result, they view it. And the most interesting among them is bringing free traffic to your website through referrals. You post your website link on your articles, on twitter, facebook or anywhere else. People interested in your article will also view the link and, if interested, will click the link resulting in bringing them to your website.
TWIENDS: NOT AN EFFECTIVE WAY TO INCREASE YOUR WEBSITE TRAFFIC
A lot of new ways of using referral links, to increase website traffic, are developing everyday. One such way is using websites like Traffup and Twiends. Twiends is not specifically related to website traffic, but it has a section dedicated to it. But traffup deals mainly in increasing website traffic by making sure that more and more people view your website. But a lot of questions have been raised about the effectiveness of these websites in not just increasing website traffic but about the relevance of that traffic in achieving our predetermined goals? I have personally received a lot of emails of people asking me about the use of traffup and twiends. Some of them were not happy with the way twiends was increasing their website traffic. No doubt, twiends results in increasing your website traffic, but it also increases the bounce rate as people don’t spend time on a particular website and quickly move onto the next website. The sole aim of the users, in case of twiends, is to earn as many credits as possible.
The main question which they had was if twiends was the right platform to effectively increase their website traffic? The answer is a big no. If you want to impress your family and friends but showing them how many hits you get on your website, then go for twiends. Else it’s a waste of time, as your purpose of making a website is not served.
TRAFFUP: INCREASE YOUR WEBSITE TRAFFIC IN STYLE
The solution to this problem is Traffup. This website is not just about increasing points by visiting a particular website, but it also acts as a showcase of websites. People visit traffup to view different types of websites of different categories. And by viewing the websites, they also get points which they can use in promoting their own website.
Points(Credits) in traffup are given per website visit. But if you are expecting to gain points by visiting the same website again and again, then you have to wait for atleast 1 hour to do so. When you visit a website, you get points for viewing it. Then you have to wait for 1 hour before clicking the same website link again (if you want to gain points). This helps a lot as your points are converted into meaningful hits.
Plus the biggest advantage in case of traffup is that the emphasis is given on promoting the website by showcasing it, rather than forcing people to gain points by visiting a website. You can visit a website of your choice, look for the information you want to get, and can still get points for visiting that website.
So yes, when you look at traffup, you do realise that the new and effective ways of bringingfree traffic to the websites are developing, which serves the purpose of actually promoting your website among the your target audience.
