Send loads of free, targeted traffic to your site
by Robin Dary
One of the top concerns for anybody with a website is traffic. You need traffic to get them to buy your product, come to your store, or buy your services.
There are many ways to get traffic. Reciprocal link campaigns are good but they take time. Try linkmarket.net, linkciti.com, linkmetro.com, or linkdiy.com. There are plenty out there. You can request links in your category and by being listed people will ask to link to you. There are paid and free programs. Start with the free and then move on to the paid. This helps with your page rank so a link campaign should be ongoing.
Running a PPC campaign with Google, Yahoo or a smaller search engine (like exactseek.com) can work but you need money for that. You can start small and spend more as your business grows.
You can create a free blog at blogger com. There are plenty of other free blog sites. This one is easy to set up and use. As a bonus it is owned by Google. They won't admit it but I think it helps you in Google. If you are passionate about your site topic or know the subject well you can easily write a blog. Postings don't have to be long and add a post once or twice a week at a minimum.
Once you have your blog set up and your first post created - it's time to ping. Ping after every post. A ping is simply an announcement that "I have new content on my blog". Two free ping services are pingoat.com and pingomatic.com.
Article directories are also great ways to get traffic to your site. There are many out there. Do a search for article directories and you'll see what I mean. A few good ones are articlecity.com, ezinearticles.com, goarticles.com, articles411.com, and ideamarketers.com.
If you need content for your site you can pull articles to use. Post your articles here and people can use them on their site - with a link back to your site.
Submit articles to the directories on a regular basis. If you submit the same article to multiple directories try to change it a bit for each one. And don't submit them all on the same day. Submit to a directory a day or 2 today and 2 tomorrow. It'll help get those spiders after your site and keep the article fresher.
And remember it does take time to get traffic steadily coming to your site. Amazon didn't launch have a million visitors dashing to their site day 1.
