5 Ways to Make Your Website Sticky
Filed Under (Make Money Blogging) by Michael Baker on 26-10-2008
A lot of successful websites depend on returning visitors to account for a major part of their traffic. Returning visitors are easier to convert into paying customers because the more often they return to a site, the more trust they have in that site. The credibility issue just melts away. Hence, keep your visitors coming back to your site with the following methods:
1) Nothing like a forum to keep them chatting
I am not sure what it is about forums, but they become addicting. People want to see what is being said, so they keep coming back to check it out. What a great way to have returning visitors to your website.
2) Get blogging today
Keep an online journal, or more commonly known as a blog, on your site and keep it updated with latest news about yourself. Human beings are curious creatures and they will keep their eyes glued to the monitor if you post fresh news frequently. You will also build up your credibility as you are proving to them that there is also a real life person behind the website.
3) Let Your Customers Take Some Surveys
Polls and surveys are other forms of interaction that you should definitely consider adding to your site. They provide a quick way for visitors to voice their opinions and to get involved in your website. Be sure to publish polls or surveys that are strongly relevant to the target market of your website to keep them interested to find out about the results.
4) Games are great for user activity
Just imagine how many office workers procrastinate at work every day, and you will be able to gauge how many people will keep visiting your site if you provide a very interesting or addicting way of entertainment. You can also hold competitions to award the high score winner to keep people trying continuously to earn the prize.
5) You need new stuff every day
Update your site frequently with fresh content so that every time your visitors come back, they will have something to read on your site. This is the most widely known and most effective method of attracting returning visitors, but this is also the least carried out one because of the laziness of webmasters. No one will want to browse a site that looks the same over ten years, so keep your site updated with fresh bites!

Thank you for great tips, many useful ideas. Just today I came across one site with the opinion poll and thought it was a very good idea. Blogging is certainly getting more and more popular, but not everybody can actually do it. Forums are definitely addictive! My friend was telling me that last Sunday, before she gave her children breakfast; she rushed to computer to see what was going on her favourite forum. She is there few times a day, it has replaced TV.

There are lots of resources to sort out. Ads, banners, button ads and sample recommendations to give out because the marketer knows that this is one way of ensuring more sales!

Very Recently, there has been a great deal of inquiries by the
FTC against bloggers and website developers
for not revealing advertising income, or potential
connections with advertising networks.
What are your ideas about how this could potentially hurt
the blogging community?
