We all know that traffic is the lifeblood of any online business. The big question that most people have is: Where is my traffic going to come from and how am I going to get that traffic to my website?
By using our stat counters and Google analytics, we can divide traffic into 3 main categories:
1. Direct traffic
Direct traffic is from people who have typed in your site directly into their browser or have bookmarked your site. This is most definitely not your main traffic source when you are just starting out, this type of traffic will slowly grow the longer you have a website and are selling your beats online.
2. Search traffic
Search traffic comes down to doing SEO and getting your website ranking high in the search results. You can also get search traffic by paying for ads such as PPC advertisements in Google, Yahoo, or Bing.
3. Referral traffic
Referral traffic is the type of traffic that you are going to get from all other websites on the internet like YouTube, Facebook, SoundClick, blogs, forums, etc. This traffic is a great place to start and you can find many ways to get free referral traffic by posting your music and links to your site on other major websites.
