Everyone knows that the success of an online business depends on the amount of traffic one can direct to, and maintain, on the site. The internet marketer sees a potential visitor to the site as a very important and welcome guest.
Webmasters sometimes adopt strategies and create situations, knowingly or unknowingly, forcing their website visitors to take a turn about and flee. What is the reason behind this?
It is possible for visitors to become disappointed and frustrated and to never wish to visit the site again.
The following are specific instances that might cause visitors to flee from your site.
Instruct your website visitors to register before entering your site without giving them any clue as to what your site is all about.
Some other sites have an audio sound track which is impossible to turn off, forcing visitors to listen to it.
Ensure that your website has graphics and multimedia and will take at least one minute to download. One minute is long enough for a visitor to get frustrated and leave the site.
Once your website visitor is in, confuse him without providing him with concise and clear labels to enable him to know his whereabouts and movements. Being unable to move freely around the site is also maddening at best.
Keep frequently changing the location of features in your site making your regular website visitors and customers confused and frustrated.
Not updating your content can bore your visitors. Have old or stale content without any indication of its publication date.
Edit your content! Who wants to see grammatical mistakes and typos? Content shouldn't be written in a font and color that's offensive or frustrating to visitors.
Plaster your web page with banners, advertisements and pop ups.
And if you have any broken links on your page, fix them! Clicking on broken links and error messages frustrates visitors to no end. Finally as your website visitors are about to leave your site, serve an exit ad and ensure that they simply can't leave that ad or exit from your website.
No visitor likes running into any of the situations just described. There are many websites on the internet that visitors can choose to go to. So, visitors can go elsewhere, instead than dealing with a site that only makes them frustrated. He knows exactly what he should do in such a situation - choose another site.
If you really want to have a professional website that attracts a good amount of traffic, make sure the site is updated often and is free of errors and broken links, and drop any strategy that will only add frustration to the surfing experience. Providing a site that's not too complicated, attractive and friendly to consumers will ensure that visitors will want to come back, over and over again.
