Do you want to know what the best quality website traffic
is? That would be free or nearly free targeted traffic, of
course. Let's see what you can do to get as much free
website traffic as you want.
Pay per click is the fastest way to get targeted traffic,
but many webmasters just can not afford it. The nice thing
about ppc traffic is you can get on page one of a search
engine like Google or Yahoo in a matter of minutes once
your campaign is set up. The downside is the cost which
eliminates many of us from doing it.
You can still get quality targeted traffic if you do it
right. One place to start is doing that I call forum
marketing. Joining online forum discussion groups can be a
tremendous source of quality traffic. In this type of
marketing you want to join a forum that relates to the
theme of your website. Join in the discussion and offer
something to the group. As your reputation grows so does
the trust people naturally have in you. Most forums will
let you have a signature file containing a little
classified ad about you or your business. You can include
the url to your website and this is how you get traffic
from forum marketing. There are people who lurk in the
shadows of forums and get all of their ideas just from the
links in the profile or signature file of the members
posting. Some of those people may become your best traffic
and it only cost you the time to be involved.
Article marketing is another excellent form of free
traffic. If you can develop a style in your articles that
is both informative and entertaining your readers will want
to learn more about you. In your articles you are allowed
to include a resource box. This is a chance for you to
direct the readers to your website or blog. By telling them
to check you out after they have read your article you will
get some free traffic. Knowing where to submit your
articles to get the greatest number of readers is important
as well. Generally directories such as EzineArticles.com
and IdeaMarketers.com are two of the best, but there are
literally thousands of directories you can submit to. Using
an article submission service such as SubmitYourArticle.com
is a great way to get your articles out to hundreds of
directories with one click. They offer a great program
called Article Leverage that allows you to re-write one
article into hundreds of unique versions. This helps you
avoid any duplicate content penalty if you feel there is
one.
Today to compete for free traffic you must have a blog.
Even better is a Wordpress blogging platform which helps
you to take complete advantage of social bookmarking.
Getting your blog articles in directories such as Netscape
and Digg can bring you all kinds of free traffic when your
articles are read. A side benefit is that search engines
love social directories. A well written article can end up
on page one of Google in a couple of days bringing you
hundreds or even thousands of free visitors for days,
weeks, months, and even years to come. If you are not
blogging and doing it correctly you need to get going on
that.
This was just a few ways to generate free website traffic.
There are many more ways and you are only limited by the
time you have to explore and implement them. The key is to
do as many as possible. Over time you will save a lot of
money and generate a large base of repeat traffic as well.
