Who Else Wants Free Targeted Traffic?

Many people believe that the internet is a get rich fast solution, and
all they have to do is put up a website and they're guaranteed success.
Nothing could be farther from the truth.

You've heard the old saying if you build it they will come? We'll I
hope you don't believe that because it isn't true, in fact if you do
nothing at all no one will ever come not even the search engines, your
site will be one of the thousands of ghost towns taking up space.

But don't despair I'm going to lay out some ways to revise your
old ghost town and once you are finished reading this you will know
exactly what to do to burn the web dust off your site.

Potential customers or visitors will come looking for you, but if they
can't find you they will settle for your competitor. So you have to go
and find them and draw a map to your site.

In order to succeed with internet marketing you must be better than your competitor,
you must get a better ranking, better link popularity, and more
doorways leading to your site.. So you will need a much better
marketing plan than your competitor.

One of the best things you can do is to write and submit articles. But,
before you start writing articles, you should do a little research on
how to write an on-line article to have best results for your homebased business.

This way of internet marketing techniques can be unbelievably effective if done
right. Writing and submitting only one article wont do much for getting
traffic to your website but if you stay consistent and submit at least
2-3 articles or more a week, you will be able to see great results as
long as the article contains good content.

There is several great results that come from writing and submitting articles:

  • It creates a one way link back to your site.

    (The search engines loves one-way links and this is the fastest way of getting them)
  • It brings in targeted traffic.

    (Traffic will come from the article directories and from other people picking it up and using it on their sites or newsletters)
  • It brands you as an expert in your niche.
    (People will
    start seeing your name and articles all over the place and will start
    trusting you, if the content you provide is helpful and good content)
So make it a point to add article marketing to your daily
tasks if you want to gain great results with the search engines and
your potential customers.

Another great resource is reciprocal linking, if done correct it
can bring you tons of traffic for years to come. But you have to think
out of the box on this one, instead of just doing the old style
reciprocal linking why not take it to extremes?

For this one we will look for related sites and contact them an
negotiate a deal, plan it out good though before contacting them, study
their site make sure it is getting good traffic and it won't hurt to
have a good page rank.

Now for the email just really lay it on, let them know what you liked
about their site and how you feel you both would benefit from a trade,
but ask them if they are willing to make a page just for you with a
little review of your site for a page with a review of their site, even
go a step further and already have their review on your site and a pre-made review of your site they can edit and add.

It should be two pages away from the home page, the first page will be
sort of like a site map pointing to all your partners, you can even
explain it to them so that they can benefit from this type of
reciprocal linking strategy that is guaranteed to get results.

It may be a little more work but isn't your business worth the
fantastic results you will receive? The old style works well also, you
just have to make sure to only link to related sites and not just every
site that requests..

Here is some extra tips for getting free traffic:

  • Participate in forums related to your niche

    (Help out in forums and leave your sig file)
  • Participate in blogs.

    (You can comment on blogs and get you link out, just don't spam the blogs..)
  • Pay Per Click (PPC) programs.

    (You can also sign up for some PPC programs like Google AdSense which would provide you with traffic)
One other thing is take the time and find a content site regarding your
niche and post your articles there. It is worth it and you wont believe
the effect it will have on your website and traffic.
There is all kinds of free strategies for getting traffic to your
sites, you just have to put forth the effort and do it. Stick with it
and you will start to see results, it's just a matter of time.
