GA or Google Analytics is your first port of call in measuring your website traffic and it is from this point onwards that you can start to make onsite adjustments.

Tired looking, out dated websites are a traffic killer. Speak with a web design agency about changing your websites look, by implementing the latest design styles. Ideally, you should be thinking about giving your website a design overhaul every 2 years. This may sound like overkill but having a website that looks slick and modern, will give you the online edge over your competition.

3. Grow your Company Blog

Blogs are a great way to generate website traffic and in turn bring readers through to your website. Think about a blog strategy, where you write 1 to 2 blog articles per week. Well written corporate blogs that generate interest will be one of your most powerful marketing tools.

Promote your business and bring people through to your website using the many social media platforms that are now so popular. Pick the right platform where your customers are likely to be and start posting comments, articles, videos, webinars and tweets.
