So everyone's after free website traffic just
imagine getting some free website traffic with some free tools well that's what we're going to
look at today I'm going to share with you the very tools I use and you can apply that with your
business too they're all simple to use and they're easy to apply to your website but i suppose you
might just be asking why is it so important to get website traffic well obviously website traffic
produces leads, leads produce customers customers produce sales so ultimately having your business
being found on the search engines you may have heard of SEO search engine optimization that's
the reason why we're looking at these tools to help us to do that but to do it in an automated
way that's going to save you time if you've ever advertised for traffic you know it costs money
and it's an ongoing monthly cost for your business free tools you get free traffic and you get it at
a cost of nothing it's organically grown so give these tools a try and see if they boost traffic
for your business too and for those that watch the end of the video i've got a real bonus if you want
to know how to build a professional website so the first tool i use is nitro pack and the reason i
use nitro pack is it takes my website and just speeds it up for me so without me doing anything
it caches the website then serves it and so my customers when they land on my website they get
a much quicker loading website when they visit it why is that important well google actually ranks
your business based on your website and how fast it loads it's as simple as that so you can use
nitro pack i'll put a link down below to it for you also another one i'm aware of is 10 web and
they've recently produced a plug-in for wordpress that also does something similar to nitro pack
so again i'll put a link to that below as well but speeding up your website is one of the most
important tools you're going to need if you want to rank and get more traffic so second tool i use
is for link building i use ahref they provide a free monthly spider of your website it then finds
all the links that you've gained it tells you what their page rank is in effect their authority
and also it tells you the ones you've lost and this gives you an opportunity to go back to those
ones you've lost and maybe do a redirect it also gives you an opportunity to see who's linking to
you what your competitors are linking to as well it even suggests ways in which you can link
through to other pages to gain more rank so if you've not used this free tool that comes through
to your email each month then i recommend it so again i'll put a link to it down below for you now
the third area you're probably needing to look at is email marketing building up a list of potential
clients so how do you then market to them how do you tell them about the offers and things that
might interest them in the future well it's by building up a marketing list now everyone knows if
you just send out emails it will go and get caught up in the spam filters but mailchimp is a great
way in which you can do it for free the first 2000 clients that are listed for free as well costs
you nothing at all and then you just pay extra if you need more than 2 000.
Now i did a challenge
to see whether mailchimp was better than aweber whether it was better than get response or drip
so there's an article i'll put a link to as well where this article just looked at all the various
falls in the gangs with all the email marketing tools out there and i have to say mailchimp still
come out number one from my estimate but i've done a video as well that will help you to see why i
came to that conclusion so check that out after this video now this point if this type of video
is interesting and going to help you and you're seeing value in it then make sure you just give it
a like down below because that just helps others find this video too now my fourth tool is a really
interesting one because when i write a blog or a video i don't just want to use keywords which
is probably what the focus is for most people but i also want to make it so that
it's got some intrigue or some interest or maybe there's a word that calls them to
action so how do you get the combination of using the right keywords for seo and at the
same time making it clickable to human beings well this is where this tool is fantastic it's
called headline studio it's free and what it does it doesn't just give you a headline score by
looking at word balance word count character count the sentiment the clarity the skimmability even
is it readable but it also looks at the seo score it makes great suggestions and it looks to make
sure you've got a balance within that headline and you can then see as you add different types
of headlines it will give you different types of scores and once you find a score that reflects
the information you're going to present in a blog or in an article then this really helps get the
clicks through to it too if people click through to an article and they then start reading it that
helps you rank and if you start ranking that's when the traffic comes flooding in so this is the
start really of that process you might have spent hours on a great article and yet no one clicks
it because the headline itself on that article isn't really appealing to the human element it's
all about the keyword element so this gives you a good balance between the two now the fifth
tool that i use all the time is public and the reason why publish such a great tool is because
what it does it enables people to become aware of when you released a new piece of information
so if i've done a new video or a new blog article then it just makes sure that people then know
it through twitter or facebook or linkedin or whatever platforms you use socially to write and
to blog and to put all that out on each individual item could take hours but just literally one click
of a button pablo does that for me and the free version gives you five different types of social
media accounts and then if you want more you can pay for extra and also circle boom is a new one
that's come along that i've been made aware of and i've been using that recently as well in another
way and it's just as good as public so really you can choose which one suits you they both have
falls and against but both of them have a free element to it that you can try and see what you
think now my sixth tool is one i've used for years and it helps me to really keep myself organized
and it's a free crm for google or for gmail so crm or customer relationship management software
the reason why it's so useful is because every task that comes my way is generally through
emails now and if it's not i will put it into an email to myself and the reason why i then use this
is because it enables you to organize you can have funnels you can have pipelines you can basically
build your whole business around your email so your email your gmail account becomes a
task in themselves you can add notes to it you can put costs to it you can make it so that
it comes back to you it bounces back to you and also you can assign it to other members of your
team too so it isn't just an account for yourself but you can expand it out to others too so really
helpful it also means if you've got an email you want to share with someone you can then just use
this clickable link and it becomes shareable to outside of your gmail account and of course with
gmail you can still bring in your pop3 accounts your imap accounts to all be built into that
one client so if you want to run your business through one gmail client i'd recommend using
streak and combining it with a gmail account really powerful and it keeps my inbox zero up
together every single day and the seventh tool is a really helpful tool if you're building an
article or you're blogging and you just want to make sure that it's readable that it's
not over spammy when it comes to keywords that it makes sense that the the balance of the
keywords are throughout the article and used on certain things like say headlines and it also
shows you how it would appear in google search results and that tool of course is yoast yost is
still a superb tool that i recommend particularly if you're using a wordpress website just to make
sure that you then can see how it sounds and how it appears to your customers but i also promised
you a bonus as well that's going to help you if you want a more professional looking website for
free now you may have heard of wix and shopify and squarespace even wordpress.com in effect gives
you a builder there but did you know google has their own site builder and it's not google
business profile one it's better a lot better than that so if you want to know how you can build
it in just five minutes using google site builder then head over to this video and i'll
show you why you need to consider it because it's a great alternative to all those
others i just mentioned so i'll see you there
