How do I get more traffic to my website?

Here is an example of a common email some people will receive from a solicitor or from a company that claims they will help your website with SEO:

Hi,

As you may know, over the last few months Google has made major changes to it's search engine. This has affected a significant amount of websites, including yours. I've done an evaluation on your site and have found the following issues:

1. Bad Links
2. Duplicate Content
3. The coding of your website contains errors affecting your ranking.

Without updating your website to be compliant with these changes, you will continue to lose traffic and ranking.

Even though this email brings up a couple good points, they should be irrelevant this day and age because of the sophistication of software. SEO-Cart not only prevents bad links, duplicate content, and HTML/CSS compliant coding errors, but also provides much more tools and automation to help your website in the search engine.

SEO-Cart's algorithms constantly evolve to keep up with white book search engine optimization techniques and to provide new e-commerce features. If you do not have an SEO-Cart account, sign up today.
