The World Wide Web has, over the past 15 years, gone from a interesting little repository of information to the most widely used form of communication on Earth today. Where once was a few hundred academic sites, there are now millions of domains about anything you can imagine. With such an overabundance of options, how can you get the audience you want? Are there ways to get there without spending a fortune?

The answer is yes. In fact, there are ways to attract attention without spending a penny.

Before we get into the how, know that there are many services out there that will help you with this task and provide tools that will make the management of it all easier and more streamlined. Some are free, while others will cost you but are very affordable. You can do all of this yourself if you prefer, but there is help available if you need it.

The best thing you can do is select specific keywords that apply to your business, and use this keywords as often as naturally possible. Overusing these words isn’t a great idea, since Google and other search engines react negatively to it, causing your pages to drop in rank. It’s a good idea to focus on keywords that most people would use when looking for the type of service you offer. If your site is offering services for tourists in France, it would be great to use the words ?tourist? and ?France,? but you could also talk a lot about some of the attractions themselves, such as the Eiffel Tower or the Lourve.

Using these keywords in the titles of your pages will reap even better results, as most search engines treat the titles of your page as the best indicator of what your page offers. While it is going to happen naturally most of the time anyway, with care and planning your titles can be loaded with the keywords you need to attract the page views you desire. Effective use of your page titles can make all the difference in the world.

Something else you can do to really boost your page rank is to get links pointing to your website. Depending on the nature of your site, you could affiliate with other sites of similar content (essentially agreeing to link this site of they link you back), have your site listed as part of a directory (some directories charge for this, but there are free ones out there for most topics), or try your hand at viral marketing and letting the word of mouth spread from blog post to tweet. Anything you can think of that may get other people to link to your pages is something to pursue, and the more creative your attempts the more attention you are likely to get. This works particularly well if they link to you using a few of the keywords you’re already targeting.

As your becomes more well known and visited, your site’s rank will naturally rise as more people talk about and link to your website. Making use of these techniques will make the journey easier, and get your website to the top of search results sooner.
