5 Most Effective Ways To Drive Targetted Traffic To Your Site!!

Here are the 5 most effective ways that I use regularly to drive traffic to my site.


Method 1

Set up blogs at wordpress.com or blogger.com and add content related to your product.
Add links back to your website.

Write good content for your blog. Make sure that the content for
your blog is entertaining as well as informational. It should
provide certain keywords targeted to your market as well as great
quality. You can create this content yourself, use private label
content or you can hire a professional content writer. The choice is
up to you.

Keep in mind when adding content to your blog that the search
engines track down the keywords and keyword phrases in your content
then index your pages based on how they are used.

Method 2

Write articles that grab the attention of people that are interested
in the product or service you provide.
Try writing articles that will provide relevant information and tips
that will make them want to visit your site for more. After your have
composed your article submit it to article directories with a link back
to your site or squeeze page.

Many sites offer free submission and posting of your articles. When
people find interest in your articles they have a good chance of
following the track by finding out where the article originated.
Include a link or a brief description of your site/prodcut with
the article and there is a great probability that they will visit
your squeeze page.

Again if you don't want to write the article yourself you can use
private label content or hire a content writer.


Method 3

Trade links with other sites. This method may seem a bit out dated
but it is still a very effective way to get free traffic.

If you don't want to hunt down link partners yourself there are many
services that with do the hard work for you. Just do a quick search
for "link exchange" and you will find many options.

Keep in mind you don't have to stop at links - you can also exchange
articles, ads or even product recommendations.

Method 4

Use traffic exchanges. This is like exchanging links but on a
different level. With most traffic exchanges you earn credits by
viewing other people's site or ads. Then those credits are used when
someone views yours.

You both benefit from each others efforts to generate traffic. The
other sites visitors can go to your pages and know more about your
site as well as theirs. There are many free traffic exchange
programs available. Just use your search engine to find the one
that's right for you.

Method 5

Take advantage of online forums and online communities. The great
thing about forums and online communities is that you can target a
certain group that fits the certain demographic that you are looking
for. Another great advantage is that you know what
you are getting into and you will be prepared.

With online communities and forums you can build a reputation for
your company. Show them what you are made of and wow them with your
range of expertise about the subject, with that you can build a
reputation and build trust with the people in your expertise and
knowledge.

Usually you can add a sig file with a link back to your site in your
forum posts. As your post count and reputation increases, so will the
targeted traffic to your sales or squeeze page.


Hope this will help!!

 

Pretty good list, although link exchanges are pretty much useless now.

 

Nothing wrong with link exchange for traffic, but I wouldn't classify traffic exchange as targetted traffic, more like useless traffic.

 

thanks for the tips....looks good ......short and sweet

 

these would be good tips for getting traffic in 2005

 

Good list, but unfortunately you have to do lot more to get a site on its feet.

 

Traffic exchanges? I stopped reading as soon as I read that.

Traffic exchanges are a waste of bandwidth, and will get you banned from reputable ad companies such as Google.

Thanks,

I was told about a free ecourse to help drive traffic and I'm pretty excited about it. It's easy for me to understand and follow. Thanks for the tips Universal Soldier - Olivia

 

Yes they are "ways" but honestly i'd consider them the 5 least effective ways.

 

then why dont you share your most effective ways?

btw what you are doing here with 2800+ post & so many links in your sig.?

 

I thought everyone knew the power of link bait, StumbleUpon, Digg and social media, URL embedded YouTube videos, creating free tools, widgets and downloads, the list goes on and on. This sort of stuff can bring your Quad Core server to it's knees.

Far better than the trickle of traffic from creating splogs on Blogger, link exchanges, forums signatures and article directories.

What am i doing here? I mainly trade domains. The links in my sig and recent blog... Only one of them is mine and i own 60 sites, and for the month of October that sig link bought about 0.04% of my total traffic. Answer your question?

 

Despite, the negative responses, I think your list is basic but good. I wouldn't agree with method 4, however. Traffic exchange is useless unless you like untargetted, non-converting, visitors.

...im sorry, I don't see the issue with having 4 links on your sig. Please shine some light on this.

 

most of my traffic source is from google relataed, i don't want to tick them off so i play ball without these traffic exchanges. links still work since they are moire long term.

 

Despite some of the negative comments to me they are still fine tips, Thanks for Sharing

 

promote your link using social networking work well too.

 

Such as stumbleupon.

Use it well and it will drive traffic to your site. I wrote a blog post about it.

 

awesome tips. Thank you.

 

I will second that, very much useless

 

Are you talking about click-through traffic? Not that I practice it but it begs the question, "how does Google know you are exchanging traffic with others for more ad click-throughs?

 

You tube, huh? Helpful thread, thanks!
