Is Your Website Attracting Your Desired Audience?

The most common problem for a brand new online business is attracting the ideal audience to its website which can translate into lack of traffic. To which we could say that the problem is not how much traffic you attract but if you are appealing to the correct one (your target audience).

Let’s say your website attracts 500 users per day; but in reality, what is the percentage of that quantity that is going to change from visitor to lead and from lead to a good conversion rate?

The following are six easy and practical steps to attract your desired audience to your website.

1. Identify your target market

What are the needs my product or service fulfills? Who is most likely to use my product/service? What is my customer’s age, purchasing power, geographical location and marital status? These are some of the questions you have to ask to narrow down your focus and identify your target market.

Once you identify your target customer, you are ready to invest in a content publication strategy.

2. Blogging

Adding more content to your site helps to update it and consequently to get more traffic, besides it shows Google your site is up to date and well-maintained.

A well-maintained, active blog helps to establish brand loyalty, increasing this way your conversion rates.

There are several free blogging platforms like WordPress.com or Weebly.com; however the advantages of hosting your blogs on your business website are endless.

Blogging on your website increases your search engine traffic since the more content you add, the more search visibility. Besides, you have more chances to rank for various keywords.

4. Improve every post for SEO

Along with quality content, you must improve every post for SEO. Use your keywords correctly; this can make a difference between potential clients and converting clients.
