When you are getting ready to launch your website, it is important think about how you will be promoting it. While there are many companies and businesses on the web that would love to do your website promotion and marketing for you, you need to remember that your best shot at finding a good one is understanding a little bit of how it works yourself.

When it comes to getting traffic to your website that is likely to stay there and give you is business, one key technique to use is search engine optimisation. Search engine optimization has two great benefits when it comes to website promotion and marketing. The first is that it takes advantage of the fact that people are actively searching for your services. One reason that people are so annoyed by spam is that they are pulled from whatever their frame of mind was before they opened the e-mail and then they had to delete it. When people are using search engines, however, they are already in a frame of mind where finding your website is the big goal. The second advantage is that getting picked up by a search engine costs nothing; all you have to do is make your site attractive to search engines, and you'll be able get hits every time your site comes on up the search page.

Website promotion can take many forms, and some of them are simple and casual.  For instance, if you regularly post to a well-populated forum, put the URL of your website in your signature. This serves several purposes. You'll be giving your website more publicity every time you post and you are also providing your site with what is called a one way link. A one way link is a link to your website that does not have your website reciprocating with a link back. This counts towards your popularity and attractiveness when it comes to search engines as well.

Putting information out there free of cost is another way that website promotion works. We live in a very fast, information-rich era, and whenever people search the internet, they are usually looking for information, whether that's on the Italian Renaissance or where the best restaurants in the area are. When you do things like post articles to online article directories or put up a glossary of terms related to your industry, you are giving people information, making yourself more attractive to the search engines and getting a reputation as an expert, something that will grant you a bit of credibility and name recognition.

Another way that website promotion works is through pay per click advertising. With pay per click advertising, you will pay a company every time someone clicks on an ad to get to your site. Your ad will go up for free and you don't pay until there is traffic coming through it. While this is an impressive deal and a good way to get traffic to your web page, be aware that some companies will hire people to click your ads.  

Knowing how website promotion works is an important part of learning how best to market your site. Make sure that the marketing techniques that you use are suited to your site and that the traffic that you get actually stays there and browses!
