GT Bulmer Web Bizz Blog: Website Visitors Seek Quality Content

Website Visitors Seek Quality Content

Getting visitors to your website is a tough business. Getting them to return can be tougher unless you start off on the right foot. The thing is, website visitors seek quality content.

© GT Bulmer
Web Biz Opportunities - StarrBizz.com

The object for most home based web biz enthusiasts is to sell stuff on the Internet. To do this, you need to set up an attractive website and drive visitors to it. There are numerous ways to drive traffic. A few examples: blogging, social networking, online marketing forums, article marketing, advertising, viral marketing via ebooks, e-courses, newsletters and other informational or instructional materials.

However, driving traffic to a website is not the ultimate answer. There are only so many potential customers and once they pass through your web space, then what? An Internet Marketer needs to place a great deal of emphasis on getting the same visitors back again.

The best way to get visitors back again is by giving them a good reason to return. Think about this: what did they come to your website for in the first place?

Information! They came looking for information, in some format, that you promised them. It might have been in the form of an advertisement for a product or service, or a program review, an article, a solution to a problem they have.

Whether or not they will remember your website and ever return again will depend on two key factors:

1) Did you live up to your promise? Did you deliver the goods, whatever it was that they came looking for? If you did and they left happy, chances are they might return again.

2) Content! Website visitors seek quality content. Something got them to your website, but in order to motivate them to return, your site has to demonstrate some degree of promise that they will receive additional benefit on each return. Fail to do this and they will likely not make the effort to come back.

On the positive side, the more effectively you do this, the more likely they will return. And if you do your job well, they might even tell others to check out your website.

Despite what some contemporary marketers try to tell you, the old cliche that "Content is King" still holds true. You can design the fanciest website, but what attracts people and what they remember best is the value you give them, and more often than not, that value comes in the form of content.

When using content to encourage visitors to return again and again, there are two important elements to keep in mind:

1) The best content is rich content. That is, informative, insightful, authoritative content that is focused on your niche or theme or whatever pitch you use to attract visitors.

2) Content must be updated regularly; it must be fresh. The more often you can add new, beneficial content, the better. Even loyal visitors will tire of going to a site that seldom exhibits any change.

In my opinion, web biz marketers should look beyond the simple act of just attracting traffic to their sites. Their plans should include the next step in the process: how to motivate and encourage visitors to return. Content rich information is the key because when all is said and done, website visitors seek quality content.

Hi GT, I have to say you are living up to your post. I've come to enjoy seeing what you have to say.
 
Hello GT,
You have hit the nail on the head! Quality rather than Quantity of content is the king in Article Marketing.

Charles Chege
 
It is true that having an attractive website is good as most visitors will stay longer if the site looks good, bur ultimately it is the information they will get there that will keep them coming back. You have given great information here GT. Thank you.

Hi GT,

Good Post. The percentage of the returning visitors will also depend to some extent on the benefits provided to the customers after buying your products and how much you are involved in ensuring that your business continue to meet the needs of your customer.

GT,
I have always found that good content will bring me back to a website, so it goes to follow that we as website owners should provide it as well. You point out that it's one thing to draw traffic to your site, and its another thing to bring repeat traffic, and that's so true. As website owners, it just isn't pratical to think that "if we build it, they will come" since just like products go stale on a grocery shelf over time, so will a website that is ignored by its owner. Deliver interesting articles such as this one and you will be far better off!

Hi GT

This is good advice. Most people take more than one visit before they will buy from a website, so it is really important that they want to return. You need good quality information and useful advice rather than lots of bells and whistles!
