How to Get Cheap Website Traffic?

    When it comes to owning your own website, it’s all about the traffic. This is especially true for websites who are trying to earn through product selling, performing a service or earning through an affiliate or advertisements. The basic idea is that the more traffic you get, the higher chance you have to convert that visitor into income. So the question now is, how do you get cheap website traffic?

    Participate in Forums

    One of the oldest and cheapest ways to get traffic to your website is to participate in online forums. These forums are usually free to become a member of. Once you achieve a certain number of posts, they will allow you to place links in your message signature. If you have a link in every message you post on forum sites, then this will give you cheap website traffic easily.

    Comment on Blogs

    Another way is to comment on blog posts. Usually these comment systems allow you to turn your name into a link by placing the URL of your website on the comment form. Another link is another opportunity for more traffic.
    Question and Answer Sites

    You can also find an opportunity to spread the word about your website on question and answer sites like Yahoo Answers. You can post a message and put in your link as reference. This too can help in increasing your traffic.

    It is important to remember that in all of these methods that you put in relative posts. Messages like “Great post!” or a simple “hi, nice site!” will simply get your message deleted and your link wasted. It is also advisable to post in forums and blogs that have relevant content to your own site. Do it right, and you’ll get cheap website traffic and see an increase in your sales within a few weeks.

    The best thing I have noticed about forum comments are highly targeted traffic. They wont do much in conversions when it comes to webmaster forums. Still yet to see how DP fares in that area

    I suggest search engine ranking.

    Get a list of your targeted traffic with lower competition and start building links from forum, blog comments, etc to increase current ranking in Google to get more traffic.

    This way you will get huge traffic if you can manage to get rank in top 3.

    Did you mean free of COST?

    Some of the LIVE examples of how NOT to reply to forum threads. These conversations are aimed at only increasing post count or just to insert a link to their site from another thread. If you really want to, try and contribute meaningfully to a thread.

    If you do not have a meaningful comment to make, then do not post one!!!
