There are many ways you can increase your website traffic. Today, we’re going to look at five of them!

1. Pick relevant keywords

Identify relevant keywords that will not only reflect your brand voice and resonate with your audience. Using search tools like SEMRush or Keyword Planner are great ways to achieve this goal by allowing you to conduct an SEO audit of your site and analyze your competition.
