It is tricky when trying to share content for increased traffic, as there are protocols in place to prevent spamming. But if you do it in the right way, you can increase the organic and direct traffic to your blog or business website. Here are some of the most popular methods used today.

Secure Upload Platforms

Let’s get this one out of the way because it might be controversial. By “secure upload platforms,” this means torrent sites. Before you go running for the hills, torrenting isn’t illegal. In fact, the method was developed to share large files fast and securely. They are safe, and you can use some of the best audiobook torrenting sites, such as 1337, to your advantage. For instance, for any content you create, you can insert links and suggestions to your blog or business website.

Using Social Media Effectively

Social media is an effective way of increasing traffic, but you must be careful. Social media post links are typically no follow links, but links in your Bio are not. Additionally, you need to tailor posts to each platform’s standard when cross-posting and only cross-post on rare occasions, or you can be marked as spamming. Also, try not to copy and paste blog content, and instead summarize your posts with links to them, leaving a reader intrigued so much they click through.

Blog and Share Content for Increased Traffic

Further to your blog, this is perhaps one of the most effective ways to boost traffic. Of course, you want traffic coming in organically via SEO. You can do this in a number of ways. SEO-rich content targeting keywords is the most appropriate. However, you can also build a strong backlinking strategy. Additionally, it never hurts to link into one blog from another blog you operate, creating a daisy chain effect. Just make sure any links to and from are always relevant.

Through the Depths of Reddit

Socials are mentioned above, but Reddit is sort of different from other social media sites. It’s hard to describe Reddit, and it works differently. If you plan on posting on Reddit, you must do it in a careful way because anything looking spammy will be flagged almost immediately. And if you are promoting products, you can pretty much forget about it. Your content must be helpful and VERY relevant to the subreddits you are posting on. Otherwise, you will be quickly removed.

Article Publishing Websites

Of course, there are article publishing websites you can use to your advantage. Like Reddit, these typically do not allow product promotion. However, you can get your name out there on sites like Medium with quality and consistent articles, especially if you are knowledgeable about a specific subject. However, some article publishing sites do allow you to place links with some caveats. You may be limited to one link in a piece, or you might have to subscribe to a service.

Summary

You can use secure upload platforms to share content for increased traffic via downloads. Social media also has its place for traffic. And you can also publish your work on article-writing sites.
