Not all visitors utilize the same software or hardware, so optimize your site to ensure that most visitors will be able to enjoy your site's design elements and will return again and again. Links Links to your site from another related site can generate a great deal of traffic. This is not easy nor automatic. The effort is well worth it.
Many sites receive a great deal more traffic from links than they do from search engines.
