Boost Website Traffic
-
Tom Beavan Websites is my business where I create and design affordable websites for small businesses in Wordpress. I am looking to improve my traffic to my website as dramatically as possible.
At present, my website is a one-page website with limited content - https://www.tombeavan.co.uk. My website ranks #1 for local keywords like:
- Web design Wiltshire
- Web design Trowbridge
- Wordpress developer UK
So in terms of keyword position, I am doing well for local business but I only get 200-300 visitors per month. I would like to dramatically improve this to improve the number of enquiries I get. I do tend to get a few enquiries but think if I improve the website traffic, the quantity of website enquiries will increase too?
I have a long list of tasks I would like to do for SEO:
- Add a lot more content to the website
- Add more backlinks
- Guest blogging
- Lots more
What would you recommend a good starting place or a place which will increase traffic effectively?
Thanks for your advice in advance

How does answering Web Design questions on Quora improve my traffic?
- By having my link on a High Authority domain like Quora?
- Hoping people will click a link to my site after answering a question?
I'm not saying that you are wrong, I'm interested in how it works SEO wise
Thanks so much for your time?

You can try Quora and start replying to users questions related to web design. We have tried that and invest entire day. It worked for us but again you need to spend one day to have a good portfolio of replied answers. You might need to use Semrush tool for that.

Thanks for your response, I agree with the approach to build my content to attract the right visitors and my goal.
My goal is to increase website enquiries and I thought the best way to do this would be to increase the traffic, but I guess my question is "If I rank #1 for my main keywords, is there a way to increase traffic for those keywords?" or should the strategy to build relevant traffic be to rank higher in as many relevant key words as possible?
Really appreciate everyone's knowledge as I am quite new to SEO.
Kind Regards

First ask..... Why do I want this traffic?
Do I want traffic just to have it? Or, do I want traffic because I want these people to do something after they land on my site.
You have control over this.
So, decide what you want to happen, make content that will pull in the right people, and build a site that will get those people to do what you want them to do after they arrive.
The goal and the method are different for every business.

Is this website optimized? Parallax web design for SEO.
Friends, I'm hoping to get some feedback on optimizing a website. It's a parallax web design so there's really only one title tag and meta description. I don't want to stuff the on-page content with keywords that don't flow with the copy/branding. What are some additional opportunities to optimize this website? It's not ranking in SERPs and has a low DA. Here's the URL, please take a look and let me know what I could be doing - https://saintst.com/ Thanks!

The best option for expanding a website to another country
Hi everyone, I have a couple questions about expanding my website from US to another country. Which option would be better to use: Country-Coded Top Level Domains, Sub-Directories or Sub-Domains? If I use a new domain, but I want to keep all the content, would canonicalization affect SEO of my new website? I want the new website (or another option) look just like the one I have, except for changing contact information, pictures and adding another language. Thank you!

How do I set up 2 businesses that work together but are ran seperately with two separate websites but similar content?
How do I set up these sites so that they will not be negatively affecting their SEO efforts? I have 2 businesses with the same owner. Business A manufactures nurse call systems and Business B installs them. They are run separately with two websites. The content is very similar because the business that installs them describes the different products on their website. These are the two sites: intercallsystems.com and nursecallny.com , My thought was on nursecallny.com when you click on the nav link "Nurse Call Systems" you would be directed to the intercell website. Would this be the best method? Thank you for your help!

How slow can a website be, but still be ok for visitors and seo?
Hello to all, my site http://www.allspecialtybuildings.com is a barn construction site. Our visitors are usually local. I am worried about page speed. I have been using Google Page Insight, and Gtmetrix. Although I cannot figure out browser leveraging, I have a 79 / 93 google score and for gtmetrix 98/87 score. Load times vary between 2.13 secs to 2.54 secs What is acceptable? I want to make sure I get Google love for a decent page speed, but for me these times are great. Bad times are like 7 seconds and higher. I have thought about a CDN, yet I have read horror stories too. I have ZERO idea of how to use a CDN, or if I need it. I just want a fast site that is both user and Google speed friendly. So my question is, what is a slow speed for a website? Is under 3 seconds considered ok? or bad for seo? But any advice is greatly appreciated.
