Site Traffic vs Company Goals

Most of the people think a successful website means having a large traffic. Yeah! It is good if large numbers of people are visiting your website but is it really fulfilling your company’s goals?

Understand this concept from this instance. There was a company which had facility of online messaging and support to clients. Through this features it was able to target right clients. But the numbers of clients were not so much.

To boost up the counting of client, one of the staff members of the website who had serious database skills decided to add up a directory pharmaceutical company. Actually she had a plan of link bait.

After some days there was a dramatic jump-up in their online form submittals. This plan helped in increasing their traffic but there happened something bad. Most of the submittals were unqualified leads. Even many of the visitors wrote in their forms: “please remove my company name from your database; can you tell me how I can participate in drug trial?”

This is not what they were looking for. They wanted large number of clients but not the wrong ones.

So here we can have a moral that bringing traffic to the website doesn’t always fulfill the company’s goals.
