Website Help Please? (No Coding Involved)?

Me and my twin sister own a website, www.zapped.acidkills.org and we have everything this other SUPER popular site has but we don't get very many hits...what could we do to get more? We have;

Visitor Content


Contests





Our parents won't let us have a pay pal or make money right now...unless it doesn't involve paypal, that's out of the question...help?Website Help Please? (No Coding Involved)?
It's nice - the coding and design is very skillful. You might want to make the links a brighter color though - I didn't see that they were there until I was scouring the website for them.





If you want more views, advertise on your affiliates. Join website listings, and advertise on forums. Submit your site to search engines.





This site also has a few more suggestions:

People need a reason to go to your site. People go to websites to get information that they want, connect with people, or to entertain themselves. So news sites, social networking sites, forums, movie sites, and game sites get lots of hits.





You have to know what your website has that people want to see.





There is also the issue of people finding your site. When they search for things, will they find it.





To get indexed on google, you need to be linked from places and I think you can request indexing.





There is a lot to think about, but the biggest thing is why people go to your site. What is it that your site has that they want to see?
Because you didn't mention the other site, we can't compare the two sites. Ensure you have enough content that is actually interesting to your audience, that they actually like and find the content useful, and that they are able to find the content they want easily using the site navigation.





Part of getting traffic to your website is search engine optimization (SEO). SEO is aimed at improving your sites ranking in search engines for the search terms that matter to your audience. If you are on the first page of the search engine results, you're likely to get a lot more traffic. SEO is a big subject, but you could start with an overview here:

Finally, see if there are sites or directories of sites that cater to your audience. You could attempt to enter those directories and exchange links with the other sites to try to gain some of their traffic. But beware of ';link farms'; which can damage your search rankings.

You actually got many hits.. It's not clear from the home page what is the purpose of this site. It looks more like it's a blog of 2 sisters. Also, make your fonts bigger, or change your colors in whole - very hard to read.





Link Building is one thing that can bring you more visitors. Try LinkMarket.com





Also, LinkReferral.com is free - try this





Make your profiles available on Linkedin.





Start being professional :)
I would look into registering your website with different search engines. do a search on yahoo for registering a website...used to have to do this manually, don't know now.
Probably because it is not very interesting.
yahoo games cough lol
