The 3 Quickest FREE Methods to Drive Traffic to Your Website
Most people who are starting out in a business get a website to draw visitors, share information, and increase sales, but they still don�t have the extra cash for advertising that website. So they fall back on ways to send people to their website for free- that�s what we internet marketers call driving traffic.
There are 3 basic ways to drive traffic to your website for free that are the easiest for beginner online business people.
1) Article Marketing- writing simple articles that showcase your expertise in your area is a powerful way to exhibit what you know to your consumer. It also wets their appetite for more information enough to gently guide them to your website to see what you have to offer. The resource box or bio is the most important part of your article because this is where you get to introduce yourself and give your website for readers to visit.
2) Web 2.0- This is just another term for social media such as MySpace, Facebook, Plaxo, and all the other networking sites where people connect with friends, family, business colleagues, old classmates, etc. On these types of sites, it is important to make sure your profile is updated to include a photo for personalization, a website url, e-mail address and a short bio of what you are doing online. Then, most importantly, be patient and let people come to you as you interact normally within the network. Share value, but do not constantly thrust your business into the conversation.
3) Video Marketing- anyone with a webcam or a video camera can produce their own video which can then be uploaded to YouTube, Google Video, Viddler, or other social video sites. The video does not have to be professionally done or flawless and it can still send traffic to your site as people search video sites for specific keywords and come across your video. In fact a video with errors is more likely to lead to visitors who can identify with you more and feel more confident that they can do what you have done.
Use these three free methods to send traffic to your website and watch your numbers grow.
