The most effective way to generate targeted traffic is
to maximize the quality and quantity of links back to
your website. Make sure you use your main keywords as
anchor text links. This will generate targeted traffic
and help get your site ranked in the search engines.

Here are my top ten ways to generate targeted traffic...

1. Develop a link exchange strategy. Trade links with
high page rank sites in a related subject. On the High
PR site make sure you use your main keyword as a text
link to your web site.

2. Start a newsletter for your web site. Write product
reviews or how-to articles on topics related to
your main keywords. When people read each issue they'll
be reminded to revisit your web site.

3. Start an online Group. It could be an online
forum, e-mail discussion list or chat room. When people
get involved they will regularly return to communicate
with others. Make sure to add your main keyword text
link in all communications.

4. Write articles and submit them to e-zines, article
directories and web sites. Post the articles on your web
site and your blog. Be sure to include your main keywords
as text links in the article body and in the authors
resource box.

5. Give away a free e-book. Include your keyword text
links throughout the e-book and sales material. Make it
viral by allowing your visitors to also give it away as
a freebie. This will increase your targeted traffic
exponentially as your free gift spreads throughout
the internet.

6. Submit your free e-book to the online directories that
are related to your main keywords. If you're promoting a
newsletter, submit it to all the free directories on the
internet.

7. Design a package deal that includes your products or
services with related affiliate products or services.
Share a sales page that includes your keyword text links
with related web sites as a joint venture offering. This
will instantly double your targeted traffic.

8. Join forums and groups related to your main keywords.
Post answers to people's questions, ask questions and post
appropriate information. Include your keyword text
link at the end of all your postings.

9. Blog & Ping. Create a blog focusing on your main keywords.
Post your articles to the blog and then ping the search
engines. This will alert them that an update was made to your
blog. Make sure you include your main keywords as text links
in the articles you post.

10. Take your list of targeted keywords and design a network
of sites. Link the sites using your keyword text links. Each
site can focus on a particular keyword from your list. This
strategy will help boost your overall search engine rankings.

Again, you'll discover that the best results for generating
targeted traffic will come from the proper use of keyword
text links in your internet marketing campaigns.
