Twitter Business Tips and Tricks

If you have a website or you promote someone else's' website as an affiliate, you need to drive traffic to
it.
Without traffic, you won't get visitors. And without visitors, you won't make money, sales, get
subscribers, etc. What good is a website without any traffic? And if the site is getting traffic, what good
is it if it's not targeted traffic?
There are many ways to drive traffic to your site, both free and paid. But we are not going to talk about
paid traffic right now. That is a totally different topic and could take hours to cover.
So, back to free traffic. Some ways of getting free traffic to your site is by Search Engine Optimization,
surfing for traffic, or getting it passively.
SEO takes time and a lot of work. When you join sites that are surf for traffic sites, you have to look at
other members' sites in order to earn advertising credits for your site to be displayed when another
member is surfing.
The only problem with this is that although the traffic is free, it is not targeted. Everyone who is a
member only surfs for the credit and very rarely even looks at the site, they just minimize their window
on their PC and multi-task. So, the traffic is crap and worthless.
Now, let's talk about the best way to get free targeted traffic. It's called Instant Buzz. Instant Buzz is a
service that gives you advertising credits as you surf the web like you normally would. What you do is
download the toolbar for free, it only takes a minute. Then, you set up your ads in the members area.
And bam, you ads are being displayed on other members' tool bars as they surf.
You can also put Instant Buzz ads in emails that you send to your friends. These are called mail space
ads. And your ad will get displayed in other members' emails. The last thing you can do is put a
hyperspace ad on your website which will help you refer other members.
When you refer other members, you will also get a percentage of the credits they earn which will go
towards your ad credits.
If someone likes your ad and is interested in what it says, then they click on it and end up on whatever
site it was that you were promoting. Now that's targeted traffic! And it was free.

So you’ve just finished creating your new website. It looks good and you are ready for the visitors, you

can’t wait for the traffic to come. So how are you going to get traffic to your new site? You will now

need to promote your new site. Here are a few things you could start with:

1. Submit your site to the Search Engines

If you want people to find your site then you should start by submitting your site to the biggest 3 search

engines, which are Google Yahoo and MSN. They will find your site eventually without submitting to

them but why wait. You should also submit your site to all the other lesser-known search engines

because some people don’t or can’t use the big 3. Can be time consuming to submit your site to most of

them so Search Engine Submission Software is recommended for this.

2. Submit your site to Directories

People go here to find other websites. Provides good incoming links when your site is listed on

directories, which can over time increase your website’s popularity and SE rankings. There are so

many directories that this can also be time consuming.

3. Submit your site to Classifieds

Was once considered to be an excellent way to get traffic to your site but not as effective today,

however, it still could be worth your while submitting your site to the classified sites using Search

Engine Submission Software because most of those sites are considered high traffic sites.

The above three methods are great ways to promote your site and start getting traffic but they can be

very time consuming if you decide to submit your site manually to the above, however, there is a much

faster and incredibly simpler way to get your site on over 700,000 Search Engines, Directories,

Classifieds, Online Malls and Link pages by using Search Engine Submission Software like this

"My Easy Submitter"

You could also consider other ways of getting visitors to your site like

1. Article Distribution – Writing articles about what can be found on your site and distributing

them to article directories with a link to your site included in every article you write.

2. Participate in Forums that are related to your sites content - Post your opinion or expertise on

the subject matter, and over time you’ll be allowed add a link to your site with every post you

make.

3. Add lots of related links to your site – This is reciprocal linking where someone adds your link

to their site while you agree to add their link to your site – make sure the sites you link to are

related to your site in some way, this will improve your search engine ranking for more traffic,

eg. If you have a weight loss site you should link to other weight loss related sites like health,

fitness, diet, exercise.

4. Use Pay Per Click (PPC) – Brings in quality traffic but it can get costly if you don’t know

what you’re doing. Every time someone visits your site it will cost you a pre-determined

amount usually a few cents. I recommend you learn all about this method before you dive in,

however, you can at least set your limit on how much you are willing to spend on this.

5. Traffic Exchanges – This is where you view other people’s sites to gain credits that will allow

them to view your site. Most of the people viewing your site will have no interest in your site,

they are only clicking on your site to gain credits. Worth a try because it’s free to join.

6. Advertise in Ezines – This can be an excellent way to advertise your website. Only use ezines

that are related to your site and have a large circulation. Allow your site ad a few months of

advertising to get the best value.

7. Hit Boosters – Instant traffic to your site using software technology. Some can be quite

useless but others can bring in truly remarkable results for your site.

There are many more traffic gaining techniques. The above are 10 good ways that will get traffic to

your site and a couple of solutions to your site promotion ventures. My advice is to try the above first

and then when you are familiar with them you can look for other methods.
