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

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. Get yourself a copy of the top 93 Marketing Forums List
