How do I attract Birds to my Bird feeder?

How do I attract Birds to my Birdf eeder?
I have yet to see a bird eat from my bird feeder. The squirrel found it first and grabbed all the seed. I tried to lure him to the other side with peanuts but he just takes everything.

I guess you could do more seeds to make sure the birds get it, or find a way to keep the squirrels out.

My ex used to attract birds to her patio by sprinkling a whole bag of bird seed around her patio. Her cats went crazy any time the birds came for seeds.

If your seed is put in at the top and eaten from the bottom instead of putting seed in it you could put sugar water as a replacement if the holes arent higher than the eating area. This will attract a lot of various small birds ecspecially humming birds. The squirrel wont like the taste and leave it alone. Then after the birds are used to getting their daily portion of sweet water and the squirrel leaves just use replace the water with seeds, and badaboom the birds eat the seeds and you squirrel problem is finished.
