How To Get Traffic From Other Countries
When driving traffic to our websites, we many times only have in mind getting traffic from the United States market.
Just to focus on the American market is a huge mistake, focus on marketing your website to the entire world!
The question is how can we get traffic from other countries?
To answer this question we will need to first understand and learn what websites are surfers in other countries aside from the United States visiting? What social networks are they using? Where are the fish?
Here is a great tool that will show you what the popular websites in every country are:
Alexa.com is a free tool that allows you to find out the traffic levels of any site online. Alexa.com also has another great tool where you can find the top sites by each country:
Alexa.com - Top Sites By Country
Alexa.com will give for each country the top 100 sites that surfers in that country visit.
We tend to think that the social networks Facebook and MySpace are the most popular in every country. However results show in Alexa.com that for example:
In Singapore friendster.com is more popular then Facebook and MySpace.
In Paraguay www.orkut.com is the most popular social network.
With this tool you can strategically plan your presence on the web and drive traffic to your website from other countries.
