How To Generate More Visitors To Your Website Using Images.

There are many free traffic generating ways that are successfully used by many webmasters. Traffic is a principle of success of your money making internet business. If your website doesn’t have visitors, you will not make money on the net. It is as simple as that. Some internet marketers use one method to generate traffic, some combine few of them. It doesn’t matter how many different methods you use, what matters is how much traffic you get and how it helps you make sales. We recommend you always try the new traffic generating methods in order to find the one that will give you the most results.

Recently we made a big research and test of a new technique to bring more visitors to your site. As it turned out images can be very good free traffic generators for your internet business. Every day people make thousands of searchers looking for the images in images.google, images.yahoo and other Search Engines. In addition if you don’t look for the images specifically sometimes they come up by themselves in Google if you look for the certain terms that the images are optimized for. If you succeed to optimize your images and get them to the top of the search results, it will increase your site’s traffic.

We are suggesting the most important points for you that will help you optimize your images and make them appear high in the search results:

1. Add an “alt” tag to all your images. When you add an image on your website, don’t forget to include an “alt” tag to its HTML code. In this tag you write the specific keyword that you want it to be optimized for. The Search Engines will find and index your images by the terms that you add to the “alt” tags. Even the “title” tag is less important for Google than the “alt” tag.

2. Publish your own images. Of cause you can buy or find the free images online, but we would recommend you to create your own image if you want to generate more traffic to your website with it. It is a fact that the SEO likes the unique images the same as the content.

3. Place the image closer to the title of your website. We suggest you to place the images on the upper part of your page, close to the title. It will also influence on the image’s optimization.

4. Add the search terms above and below the image and highlight them in bold or italic. The text around the image impacts on the Google indexing of your image and helps you increase your traffic.

    have you ever tried classified ads? They work really well for us, some people think it’s ‘old school’ but we still see great ROI.
