Top Converting Traffic Sources For 2014

By Carl Lee


Surfer trends and interests change every year, and the traffic sources that were great last year are not necessarily the ones that are great for 2014. The total reach of Facebook has declined significantly, and Tumblr is falling out of fashion too. So, where are the places to hang out in 2014 if you want to get high quality traffic?



Pinterest is a rapidly growing social network. Until recently, the network was primarily used by females, and even now it has more female users than males, but it is becoming increasingly popular with men. Pinterest users respond well to aspirational content, including pictures of creative or interesting products.

Twitter is not a new social network, and it would be unfair to say that it is regaining popularity at the moment, since that would imply that it had seen a lull in popularity. However, it is a good place to go for self-promotion. Facebook has seen a huge decline in reach for unmonetized posts over the last several months, and discoverability on that platform is becoming incredibly difficult. Twitter is taking over again now that Facebook is losing traction, because engagement on Twitter is so much greater.

Instead of simply making posts on the social networks, you can also take advantage of all of the advertising options that they have. Although Google used to be the top advertising medium to generate targeted traffic, social media is slowly becoming the best. As stated before, more people than ever are on social networks, many of which are looking to buy products and services. By placing ads, you can cut out all of the legwork that used to be necessary for finding hundreds of followers, and can now directly advertise to these individuals on the web. By using these simple suggestions and strategies, you can take your business to higher levels by tapping into the best most targeted traffic available in 2014.

Finally, you need to consider doing social media advertising to generate consistent sales. People are constantly on their phone, or on their computer, surfing Facebook and other social media networks. Advertisements on these websites is actually becoming more profitable than search engine advertising. By learning how to advertise on the search engines, you will be able to generate quite a bit of cash for your efforts, but social media will take you well beyond those limitations, allowing you to earn a substantial amount of money this year.
