Social Media Marketing
If you have a website that does not get much traffic, try embedding social media platforms into your website, or use your social media platform to direct users to your website. If someone visits your website and you have strategic social media platforms placed on your website, the user will most likely click on it and share your website/social media account to others. If you have a nice social media presence, you can also embed links into the platform of your choice that will direct traffic to your website. Using social media is extremely beneficial in today’s time and it can increase your visibility by more than you actually think. With using the right social media platform and right strategies, social media can single-handedly increase website traffic by a lot. For example, you can use Instagram’s linktree to place a link in your social media bio that will direct users to your website.
