Since posting my 2005 traffic figures recently, I’ve received many questions about how I was able to start this web site from scratch and build its traffic to over 700,000 visitors per month (Jan 2006 projection) in about 15 months — without spending any money on marketing or promotion. Building a high-traffic web site was my intention from the very beginning, so I don’t think this result was accidental.

High-Traffic Web Site

My traffic-building strategy isn’t based on tricks or techniques that will go out of style. It’s mainly about providing genuine value and letting word of mouth do the rest. Sadly, this makes me something of a contrarian today, since I happen to disagree with much of what I’ve seen written about traffic-building elsewhere. I do virtually no marketing for this site at all. My visitors do it for me, not because I trick them into doing it but simply because they want to.

Here are 10 of my best suggestions for building a high traffic web site:

1. Create valuable content.

2. Create original content.

3. Create timeless content

4. Write for human beings first, computers second.

5. Know why you want a high-traffic site.

6. Let your audience see the real you.

7. Write what is true for you, and learn to live with the consequences.

8. Treat your visitors like real human beings.

9. Keep money in its proper place.

10. If you forget the first nine suggestions, just focus on genuinely helping people, and the rest will take care of itself.
