5 years into my career as an SEO professional, 14 years into my marketing career, I’ve finally unlocked the secret to getting lots of free traffic.
Even better, it’s cheap. Anyone with a free afternoon and a smart phone can do it.
Even better, I’m going to share it with you. Right now. Unlike other systems, I’m not going to ask you to pay any money, or sign up for a free webinar. All you have to do is keep reading.
Are you ready?
Here it is.
The answer, the sure-fire way to bring in a ton of traffic to your website, is this. One word.
Kittens.
That’s right. You heard me. I said kittens. I would also accept cats.
Don’t believe me? This video of a kitten has almost 6,000,000 views on YouTube. icanhascheezburger.com is one of the most popular sites on the internet.
The world wants kittens, so if what you want is traffic to your website, give them kittens. Give them enough kittens, and your traffic will shoot through the roof.
Sales, on the other hand… sales are a bit different. If you want sales you need to provide value and think beyond the hit counter. Traffic is misleading. It leads us to think that we’re doing well when it’s possible that we’re not doing much of anything.
Focus on the things that increase sales. Conversion, value propositions, customer loyalty. Give me a great customer experience and I’ll come back again and again. Give me kittens and I’ll welcome the distraction, but that’s about it.
Oh. Here’s a video of kittens playing in a box. Couldn’t resist. They are soooo cute.
