The list is good but I am receiving 1000 visitors from google daily without doing such a hell lot of work..
Nice share Hopefully this will reduce all those "How can I get traffic?" posts Thanks for your contribution
Really a big and perfect list you got there. I will be trying all of them, when i get good amount of free time. One more :- 24. Twitter
It seems good, but they need lot of work. I think the best way is to do SEO and get good SEPR ranking on google.
I have tried some of what you have mentioned. And I suggest the ff: - answer community - classified ads - stumble upon and - link exchange it is also a good way to generate traffic. ^_^
You have a great list of what to do's. But this is one heck of a JOB! i would rather do a few of those but can get the results needed, like getting 3000 thousand uniques a day. That would be really great my friend.
Definitely a lot of work. What I suggest is to try 2 or 3 of the methods listed above, run it for a month then compare the results. If it brings you traffic, continue doing it. Otherwise, move on to the next option.
Ok list. (although mentioned sooo many times... ) I'd also like to add "funny forum names". For example. Mr. "Kicked Out" has now a tagline "banned". I think that's funny
BUM Marketing is when you go on a article writing spree promoting a CPA offer or affiliate program. When you write the articles your not supposed to care about how they read (to a point) and just do as many as you can everyday.
Very good post I think you covered all the ways not only to get good backlinks but also how to get the traffic.
