How do I get more traffic on www.mastiffs360.com?

You have keywords, but you don't have the title tag -- which is the most important tag. Keywords are being ignored by search engines such as Google, but they look at the title and description tag, which are the more important tags and which you don't have both.

Getting traffic is a combination of a lot of things. The key to success is to create great content that visitors want to use, search engines will love and other websites will naturally link to. Of course, it's easier said than done.

You can use pay per click advertising in the search engines to reach audiences looking for your products. You can use Google Adwords http://www.google.com/adwords or Yahoo http://searchmarketing.yahoo.com/

Here are some shoestring marketing ideas that can help you get the visitors you need at the least cost possible:

1. Create the best content you can with the best products you can possibly offer. Your content is your best advertisement - if visitors love your content, then they will go back and spread the word to others.

2. Make it easy for users to recommend your site. Viral marketing is very important -- and easy to tap on the Web. But give your users the tools. Get a Recommend this Site script from websites such as cgiscripts.com and similar directories of scripts. Some even go as far as giving incentives to those who recommend the site to their friends. If only 10 people go to your site, but these 10 people invite 10 more - that's additional traffic that you get for FREE!

3. Rank well in the search engines (organic search results, not the pay per click). SEs can be a big source of traffic. The key is to create the best content in your niche. If you have good content, other websites will gladly link to you and offer your site as a resource to their audience. Check the on-page factors and be sure to get linked from authority sites in your topic area.

If you are going to read only one piece on search engine optimization, I suggest you read Brett Tabke of WebmasterWorld.com's "Successful Site in 12 Months with Google Alone: 26 steps to 15k a day." http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum3/2010.htm

4. Send out press releases. While outfits charge as much as $650 per release, there are free press release submission places on the Web. Press releases allow you to (a) attract media attention; (b) get more back links to your website without sending each website an email request; and (c) get more visibility especially if your press release gets in Google News or Yahoo News.

5. Submit articles. Write articles and submit them to websites accepting author submissions. You get exposure for your business; establishes you as an authority in your field, and allows you to get backlinks for your website. If 50 websites publish your article and it contains a link back to your website, then you easily get 50 links from a single article. The more links you have, the greater your chances for increasing your search engine rankings.

Here is a comprehensive list of where to submit your articles http://answers.yahoo.com/question/;_ylt=AhzreGmnCU...

6. Post a link to your site for free where it is allowed (always read the Terms of Use). Examples are:

Craigslist http://www.craigslist.com/

Google Base http://base.google.com/

Classifieds for Free http://www.classifiedsforfree.com/...

Text Link Exchange http://www.txtswap.com/

Recycler.com http://www.recycler.com/

Yahoo Classifieds http://classifieds.yahoo.com/

US Free Ads http://www.usfreeads.com/

For cheap/free advertising, it's best to go to the places where other mastiff lovers hang out. (Cute site, by the way!) Look at user groups, such as the ones sponsored by Yahoo and Google (there are others). I'm sure there are groups that are dedicated to all things mastiff. Get involved there, answer questions, post interesting tidbits. Make sure every post you make includes a link to your site in the signature.

Also, write articles on subjects that will interest mastiff owners. Submit them to article directories like ezinearticles.com or amazines.com. Again, make sure you include your site link in your author bio.

The idea behind this kind of marketing is to establish yourself as an accessible authority on mastiffs. That encourages people to come to your site and see what you have to offer.

Hope that helps. Looking at your site, I'm a little unclear about whether you're selling something on your site. If you are, you might have to make that more clear.

What I learned about 'spiders' and how to feed them changed my whole online business...massively. Don't blow this off you need to visit TheCrazyAffiliate's site. Get ready to dominate the search engines for whatever niche you choose.

Have a great day.

Need some serious seo on your site (title tag is way to long, need a description tag, keyword tag is too long)

Also, try exchanging links with other sites in the same niche.
