Be active on Social Media
It is important that you must be active in all the social media so that people can recognize you and your shares. Try to support others too by giving some shares for others posts. It is a kind of Give And Takes policy. Being active is as important as we share our contents.
Be a member of communities
Communities can deliver a high traffic to your website. I would say join an online community according to your professions and help others. This is a great way of getting personal satisfaction too. In this way, you can learn lots of things. Try this, you will come to know the importance.
If you are a software professional, you can join C# Corner, Code Project, Asp.Net . These all are great communities where you can help and learn.

Include Translation
As our website is accessible entire world, we must have an option to translate our contents to users language. If you are using WordPress, you can find out so many plugins related to that. In this way, you can make your site more readable. As far as the user is active on your website, that much is good for you.
Active in forums
Nowadays there are so many forums available. You can choose according to your passion, profession. I am active in the C# corner, Code Project, Asp.Net forums. And do not forget to include your website links to your forum signature too.
Include Meta Data and Meta Description
Google crawls your website according to the metadata and meta description you provide to each post. So you must set metadata and meta description to all of your pages or posts. If you use WordPress there is a plugin called All In One SEO. I recommend that.
Always check your site metrics
It is recommended that you must check your site metrics regularly. You can either use google.com/analytics or http://www.alexa.com/. I recommended both.
Alexa Site Metrics
Google Analytics
Please be noted that there may be other good tools too. Please use those according to your needs. When you check your metrics, you can get some suggestions what you must do to make your website more efficient. You can find some reports on which keywords and which pages are being visited many times. And Please do not forget to take care of the performance of such pages or posts.
And last but not the least…
