5 Easy Ways To Get
Traffic To Your Site!
By: Ahmad Supaat
If you're not getting traffic to
your site, then you're not going to make money online. The internet is
about traffic, so getting traffic should be high on your list of
priorities. There are many ways to get traffic. One of the fastest ways
to drive traffic to a site is pay per click advertising like Overture.
Using pay per clicks however costs some amount of money. Today I want to
share with you 5 free and easy ways to generate immediate traffic to
your web
site.
1 - Write and submit articles
One of the most effective ways to
get traffic is to write articles and post them in as many article
submission sites as possible. You could write a simple 500 word "How To"
article with detailed step by step instructions, and links to useful
resources. Include a resource box with your links. A well written
article on a popular topic can easily get hundreds of links back to your
site in a short period of time.
Here's some popular article
submission sites:
Also, you could compile a list of
ezine publishers that accept articles and send them your new articles.
2 - Blogging
Blogging is yet another easy way
to get traffic. A blog is simply an on-line diary or weblog. Since blogs
are usually updated frequently, the search engines love them and visit
them often. For every post, include a link to a site or webpage that you
want spidered by the search engines. Each time the seach engines visit
they will follow the links. One of the easiest ways to start blogging is
at
http://www.blogger.com.
Here's a few ideas for writing
blogs:
- Tips related to your product
or topic
- A short "How -To" explaining
the use of a product or service
- Product reviews
- News excerpts
- Opinions on news
3 - Write an ebook and give it
away
A great way to get free traffic is
to put together an ebook report on a popular topic and distribute it
freely. Allow other people to give away the e-book to increase exposure
to your web site. Put your links on the title page or on the table of
contents and in the resources section.This will give the most exposure
for your web site. You could submit your free ebook to ebook
directories.
4 - Exchange links
Trade links with other web sites.
They should be related to the subject of your web site. Having relevent
keyword links to your site will increase your site ranking. Linking is
an important strategy for search engine optimization. A useful software
that can help with your linking strategy is at http://linkmachine.net
5 - Online forums
Participate on online forums. Post
answers to other people's questions, ask questions and post appropriate
information. Include your signature file at the end of all your
postings. Forums are also a great way to network and create business
alliances.
All the best,
