Get More Traffic To Your Pilates Websites

Where do you get most of your clients or students for your group classes?

Maybe some of them are referrals - hopefully they are! And if they aren't, you should start asking your current clients to tell their friends about pilates and offer to let them come in for free!

The main method I use to find new clients or even potential clients is online.

You might have a website, maybe a blog, maybe 2 blogs...but are you getting anyone to come to these sites? Well, here are two ways to get my traffic to your site. Building backlinks that point to your site and submitting your site to web directories.

Now, I'll tell you a secret. I still don't have a proper website or sales page and I'm still getting people contacting me for sessions. I'm working on it - don't judge LOL. How? Well, with all my various free blogs, main website (which truthfully is not what it should be at all!), I have a very specific secret weapon which helps me build backlinks to my sites and also gets me listed in many web directories automatically. Now, I could do this by hand and search for the directories ... and I do some of that yes because it's great to be listed in relevant pilates directories.

The bulk of my submissions are through a tool called Traffic Bug.

Here's what it does - this is directly from their inner members area.

"Social Bookmarking. Social bookmarking is an extremely effective technique for getting new sites indexed faster by Google. Not only that but the links from social bookmarking sites can generate a nice increase in your sites rankings as well. To top it all off social bookmarking can be extremely effective at raising your sites natural traffic volumes.

Directory Submission. Directory Submissions is a technique that has been around for quite some time. Directory Submissions is a great way to build a large volume of back links back to your site. A very large portion to SEO is how many back links you have pointing to your site. Traffic-Bug is one of the very few software's if not the only one that completely automates Directory Submissions. There are other software's out there that can do directory submissions but not like Traffic-Bug. With Traffic-Bug you can simply set and forget and it will go on and on building you backlinks and even solving the CAPTCHA for you!

RSS distribution. This is another greatly powerful method to raising your sites rankings and helping get a site indexed as well as slightly improving natural traffic. RSS aggregators take your RSS URL and display them on their sites. Not only will this allow a chance for real visitors to follow your link back to your site but it provides link juice and can help with rankings.

Search Engine Submissions. There are hundreds of search engines on the web and Traffic-Bug ensures that you will be listed on all of them. Currently the software already does 139 Search Engine submissions. Even if some search engines aren't that popular it could still provide you some traffic you might not have received otherwise."

Give Traffic Bug a look and see if you might be able to use it to promote and grow your pilates business. It has seriously increased the number of backlinks to my site!
