Thinking of building a new marketing tool to increase TARGETTED site traffic.

    Hey Guys,

    If you are anything like me, you have probably spent lots of your time online and on DP reading and testing different ways of generating traffic to your site. You always hear people say build quality content, submit to directories, submit to article sites, build links to your site etc. Many of us heed to everyone’s advice and do it all. Some of us get lucky and get some decent traffic while others check our stats ever 3 minutes and don’t see a trickle of traffic. We spend so much effort in building our sites and traffic that many times we are usually disappointed with the results. The truth of the matter is that traffic is nice but TARGETTED traffic is better. If we are going to spend so much time doing this stuff we need to ensure we use precision targeting and not a spattered approach.

    Anyways, I've come up with a process for acquiring very targetted traffic and am conducting some tests. I have documented the process and if all works well will consider either:

    A) making the documented process available through an ebook

    or

    B) actually developing a software product that enables the process to happen


    I would like your feedback as to which route I should take and would like to share very high level information as to what this process is and is not. Would be interested in seeing if anyone would consider this.

    What this process/product is NOT.

    It is not a directory site or product that submits to them
    It is not an article site or product that submits to them
    It is not FFA site /Linkfarm or product that submits to them
    It is not a link exchange product or ring
    It is not a blog or product that submits to them
    It is not an RSS feed or product that generate them
    It is not a News release site or product that submits to them
    It is not an ad network
    It is not a banner campaign thingy
    It is not an email campaign manager
    It does not create site hundreds of thousands of irrelevant pages that pollute SEs
    NO spamming or blackhat techniques applied - just hard work!


    What this product will DO.


    You will be able to get your message in front of a specific targeted audience, specifically those in your niche and relevant subsidiary niches?

    You can expect your message to be archived so that new comers to your niche can browse through the established archives and access your message at any time. Your message may be included in an extensive knowledge base.

    You can expect to get some permanent links to your site if you include them in your message.

    You can expect that your message will be delivered and read by individuals in your niche market, you can not only reduce the likelihood for your message hitting the junk folders but also increase the way in which your message is accessed by users in your niche.

    You will get a real life step by step example of how to apply this method.

    You will learn simple steps that will allow you to automate this process and get your message out as often as you like (daily, weekly or monthly).

    You will get access to very current and targeted email lists for your niche.

    You will be able to meet individuals in your niche, build relationships and network.

    You will instantly have access to valuable information in your niche allowing you to build your knowledge further and possibly allow you to republish some of this information.

    In many cases, your message is reviewed to ensure that it meets the guidelines and is relevant and worthy of publishing to your niche audience.


    Looking forward to your feedback!
    :)
    Frank

    Is it a Traffic Equalizer type of product?

    Last year I coded a set of scripts (tools) for automating a few simple tasks to update my websites and such, it worked quite well... traffic was good. I haven't used it since and won't sell it... why? Simple, using it will make my site look like it was auto-generated (which it would have been) and selling it would result it spammers abusing it and ruining the product's effectiveness for legit webmasters.

    There's no real reason why I posted this, just thought I'd share it with y'all... :)

    Best of luck, sounds like a viral type of product!

    Hi there itsme .. no its not a traffic equalizer program ... the program itself will be used to make the process easier. The process itself is very time consuming but very effective. Like I said in my original post its nothing blackhat or questionable, basically tapping into a very very specific type of information base, with very niche oriented audience.

    thanks for your encouragement!
    :)

    Frank, you idea sounds fascinating.

    I do not feel like I have enough knowledge or expertise to suggest to go with an e-book or build software.

    Do keep us posted on your development.

    I can find useless programs anywhere, what I'm really after is the HYPE!

    ...tell you what, make it a "limited time offer" good until midnight tonight and you've got a deal. ;)
