Make Free Puzzles To Keep Visitors Active On Your Site

I love any tool that encourages creativity. That’s why I’m a fan of the FREE puzzlemaker available at Discovery Education.

Discovery Education is a site offering resources that help bring a classroom to life. But some of their resources, like the online Puzzlemaker, are just as well suited to bringing your blog or web site to life.

Puzzlemaker is a software tool that generates a variety of word puzzles ranging from word search and criss-cross to hidden messages, mazes and much more.

What could your do with Puzzlemaker to make your site more interesting?

If your bloging about or have a  web site offering health information, you could create a word search puzzle containing the names of various vitamins and nutritional supplements. A site that encourages kids to read could create a puzzle from the titles of famous books written for children. A business site could use industry-specific buzz words to create a criss-cross word puzzle.

I created a word search puzzle for The Internet Wziards by using some of my most-used keywords :

BLOGGING   
BONNIEBOOTS   
CREATIVITY
DIGITAL   
EBOOKS   
EBUSINESS
INTERNETWIZARDS   
ONLINE   
WEBMARKETING
WORDPRESS

…and Puzzlemaker turned it into a nifty puzzle titled The Internet Wizards Word Search.

You can download it in a PDF file here, print it out and solve it. (And if you get stuck, you can download the solution to the puzzle here.)

 Adding activities to your site is a great way to keep visitors entertained. They’ll stay on your site longer, and be eager to come back for another visit if they know there’s always something new.

That’s important because repeat visitors are more likely to become your subscriber and eventually your customer or client.
