2. Make sure you choose your keyword after doing some research. What is your visitor looking for? If you were looking for what you are offering, what would you type into the search engines?
3. Metatags. As well as placing your keywords as described in no.2 above, don’t forget to go into your webpage settings and insert your keywords as metatags to increase search engine optimization and therefore traffic.
4. Your page is sure to rank higher and sooner if you actually submit it to the search engines. This is simple enough to do. Just do a search on Google for a suitable service. Make sure you do this as soon as possible after publishing your website for best results.
5. Learning from others. If you were looking for your product on Google, type in what you think someone might search for to find you. Look at the top ranking sites in the organic results (the ones on the left). They will be at the top of the list by making good use of search engine optimization themselves. Visit those sites and see what it is that they’re doing and you’re not, to increase traffic to their site.
