Bringing traffic to a new website is very difficult, but when you promote your website properly to get traffic to your new website then it becomes easy for you to bring traffic to the website.
There are mainly three types of traffic. Organic traffic, referral traffic, and direct traffic. Traffic comes to the website from these three sources. Whereas organic traffic is of utmost importance.
Organic traffic comes from search engines like Google, Bing, Yahoo. This is possible only if the website appears or ranks in the search engines. And for the website to be ranked or visible on the search engines, the pages must be indexed.
In such a situation, there is a challenge to index all the pages for a new website owner. Google or any search engine takes time to index a new website. And the website owner has no other option but to be patient.
Here I want to tell you a solution. Yes, regarding direct and referral traffic. You can get a lot of traffic by promoting the website on social media and high authority sites.
Promote your new website for a lot of traffic
If Google has an
indexing problem, it must be resolved. But if there is no problem with your article and it is taking time to get indexed, then the only reason is that the website is new. Until the website is completely ready, the website will be considered new.
During this, you should focus on the promotion of your website. There are many social media and high authority sites available to promote. You should focus on promoting your website by using these platforms properly.
First, we will discuss how we can promote the website on some popular social media. Then we will discuss High Authority sites. Popular social media include large platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Pinterest.
How to promote the website through Facebook
Nowadays the most popular social media is
Facebook. And you are not unaware of this either. Millions of people are connected to this platform. You should take advantage of this platform to promote your website.
For this, you need to know the right way. It has been seen many times that bloggers join Facebook groups and share links to their websites. This is also a way of promotion but people are now bored with these tricks.
If you share the link of the website in the group, if you share the link of the page in the comment, then you have to face more harm than benefit. As the bounce rate of your website increases.
Use the right way to promote your website. Below are some tips that you should use.
Friend request: Make friends with people who are interested in your niche. But how do you know who is interested in your niche? For this, you have to do research.
For example, the niche of my SEOrity blog is about problems and solutions related to blogging. So I'll find all the people who run blogs.
Join Facebook Groups: Sharing website links in Facebook groups is beneficial when you are a member of groups that are related to your website's niche.
For example, if you write reviews of books, you must share the link to the website in the group related to books.
Build relationships with users: You must stay connected with your users. Listen to their problem, if possible solve that problem. As a new blogger, you don't need to share the link to the website you already have.
When you get to know another member of the group, the other members will know you, so connectivity will be created. When you help someone, they will not ignore the post you have published. The promotion of your website will start increasing among the people. It may take time but hard work will not go in vain.
Post Images: An image speaks a thousand words. Use images to promote your website. What should be in the image? Attractive title, relevant image, website link. Remember that the content must be useful.
Promote your website on Instagram
Instagram is also a popular social media. In this also you can promote your website. But the way promotion can be done on Facebook cannot be done on Instagram.
That's why you always have to keep in mind that the way of promoting a website is different in all social media. Instagram is famous for images, videos, and reels. Here you cannot provide a link to your site.
So you must be wondering how to promote the website? How will readers come to the website when the link cannot be provided? One solution is that you can take readers to the website. But for this, you have to first understand the algorithm of Instagram. Because this algorithm will help you the most in bringing traffic to the website.

There are thousands of high authority websites, but here I am going to tell you about three such websites which are very popular and you can easily promote the website for free.
Promote your website to higher authority sites
By promoting the website in high authority, you can not only promote but also create backlinks for the website. With a little hard work and understanding, if you show your skills on these websites, then you can gain huge traffic.
Like Quora, Medium, Reddit, Question Hub, Tumblr, etc. are high authority websites. In which you can also promote your website and also create backlinks.
How to promote a website on Quora
Quora is a unique and popular high authority website for questions and answers. Millions of traffic come to this website daily. The website that people like so much, if your website is visible, then think about how many views your article can get.
Quora doesn't do anything on its own. Visitors post their questions and wait for the answer. And the second visitor who knows the answer to this question writes the answer.
If you understand then move on. Now the question will come that what questions do you have to answer? The answer is that all the articles on your website are definitely the answer to some questions.
So what do you have to do now? You have to search your keywords in Quora and select which questions are answered in your article. Write the answer to that question. It has to be kept in mind that the person asking the question is satisfied with your answer.
Now the question is how to get people asking questions to your website? You have to answer the question in a concise and precise manner. It has to be kept in mind that readers are eager to read further. For this, you can refer to the link to your website.
Also, you have to keep in mind that if you give the wrong answer to any question or are providing a website link only to promote a website, Quora moderators will catch your move and the account will be closed.
That is why it is important to write the correct answers to the right questions. Write short but write well.
Apart from this, Quora also gives you many topics from which you can write articles. Suppose there is a question for which you know the answer but you have not written an article about it yet. In such a situation, you can also answer that question by writing a new article.
Create space in Quora
Quora space can be created to promote the website. Like you create a group on Facebook. Share your article on your space. You can invite niche-related people. People can ask questions by looking at your space and the category of the space that you have or know the answer to.
How to rank your website through Quora
Now the trick that I am going to tell is the best way to promote the website and rank your website in the search engines. For example, if you have an article titled 'How to make money online. Now you have to search this title in Google 'How to make money online Quora'.
Click on the Quora article that appears in the search results. When you come to Quora's website, you also get the option to write an answer. By doing this it will be beneficial that this article is already ranking, the user who clicks on this article will also see your reply.
Because your website link is mentioned and your content is also good, users may reach your website as well.
Promote your website on Medium.com
Like Quora,
Medium.com is also a high authority website. But here you do not need to write the answer to any question. In Medium, you can promote the website by sharing your article.
In this, you get two options to share the article. In the first 'Write a Story', you can publish your article by pasting it. You can also share articles by importing the URL of the page in another 'Import'.
If you share the article through 'Write a Story', you have to create a great image so that it can attract the readers. Use the title of the article as the title. You can copy and paste some major parts of the article and refer to the link of the website to read the complete details.
Use the image in text and type the Alt attribute. Also, there is an alternative to tags that you should use. Apart from this, if you want to share the article through 'import', then you can easily promote the website by following the steps given below.
- Create an account on Medium.com.
- Click on your profile.
- Click on Stories.
- Click on Import Story.
- Paste the article's URL into the box.
- Click on the Import button.
- Click View your story.
- Minimize extra space.
- Click on the three dots in the top right.
- Click on change tag.
- Publish articles.
Get Backlinks to Your Website from Question Hub
Question Hub is Google's own service. It also works like Quora. But there is a slight difference in this, in this, you do not need to write the answer to the question. Only the link to the page is to be submitted.
Users ask their any query on the Question Hub website and wait for an answer. If you have an article related to this question, you can answer it by submitting a link to that page.
The user who has asked the question will be redirected to your website by clicking on that link. Traffic will increase on your website. If you have not written any article for those questions then you can also submit the link to that page by writing a new article.
Backlinks from Question Hub are do-follow backlinks which are considered good. Apart from this, if your content is of high quality, then Google will also show it in the search result. So that if other users are searching for the answer to this question, the search engine will show your article.
To promote the website in the question hub, first of all, you have to open an account and connect your site with the very easy question center. When both these processes are completed, then follow the keywords of the topic related to your website.
With this, the question related to your website will be in front of you, in response to which you will be able to submit a link to your page. You may not be able to answer all the questions but if you are answering 40% of the questions then your website can get a lot of traffic.
Conclusion
Lastly, website promotion is very important to bring traffic to the website. Especially for new websites. If you will promote the website in an above-mentioned way, then you will get a lot of traffic, backlinks will be created and your page will be more likely to be crawled due to your page being linked to other sites.
So put your mind to promoting your website properly. Blogging is the name of hard work, there is no magic in it. Give the right direction to your hard work, success will surely come.
