How to promote website's popularity?
by

Once your site is launched, half your battle is won. What lies ahead
is the interesting and challenging part of the game. Learning the
basics of HTML, creating pages etc actually gets boring for some and
they leave it at that.. But once you are beyond the basics, life
gets better. The next step is promoting your website. There are
various ways to do it.
Press-Release: There are various websites dedicated to
press-releases and announcements. You can submit your site
briefings to them. What you have to make sure is, that your
press release is not a general, ordinary, uninteresting
paragraph. In such a case these websites are most likely not to
publish it. It has to have a niche, news-value plus useful and
interesting content. Make sure of an informative yet interesting
headline. Likewise for body copy. There are various websites

Link Exchange: Exchaning links with sites of similar/
complementary theme is the single most important and guaranteed
technique to attain link popularity and move up in search
engines. You must try and link to relevant sites as far as
possible. You should also make sure that link pages of your own
site are categorized properly and that they do not have more
than 25 links on one page.
Writing Articles: Write articles related to your main theme and
post them to articles' directories. There are many websites
exclusively dedicated to articles. You can use articles
available on such websites on your website, which may have been
written by webmasters like you and me, and can post articles
which other people can read or reproduce on their sites.
The more people re-print
your article on their sites, the better. It gives you the advantage
of one way linking. The webmasters who use your articles, will in
reciprocation place your sites link at the bottom of article along
with your name. You can also promote your websites by hiring
professional companies, who will do all the above and more for you
and will charge you a
certain amount for it. Some use software, some claim to do it
manually.
Depending on your budget
you hire them. There are many more ways in between to promote your
sites further which you learn as you proceed. Be sure about one
thing, having a website on the net is pointless unless its reaching
your target audience. And for it to reach them or have surfers
visiting your site, promoting your site is a must.
