Free and Easy Ways to Get Web Traffic


If you own a website you probably know how hard it can be to get visitors to your site. You also probably know that getting website traffic is the key to running a healthy and profitable online business. Without traffic your online business will not last very long.

Now getting good website traffic can cost a lot of money, and most people who are just starting out more then likely do not have the money to pay for advertising. So they need another option, and that is where free and easy traffic comes in.

One of the biggest myths out there is that most people think free or cheap traffic does not convert into leads or sales. This is completely false. Free traffic does work, and it actually works pretty well.

So how can you increase your web traffic for free?

Well there are a few ways to do it. A few methods are article marketing, email marketing, classifieds, blogs, videos, and forums. All of these methods are free, and have been proven to work time after time.

• Article marketing has been around for years, and it's probably the best way to get good free traffic flowing to your website. You simply write an article on a specific topic, and submit it to article directories. Inside each article you submit you can leave links back to your website.

• Email marketing is another great source for getting traffic. You can use other people's lists to send messages out to them telling them about your business. This is a very effective way of promoting something online.

• Post classified ads. These are small ads that you can post to any classified ad site for free. People do read and see these. Most marketers never use this method even though it's proven to work.

• Build a blog. Blogging is becoming a huge part of the Internet, and you can create your own blog for free, and submit it to blog directories and get free traffic. Blogs are a proven way to not only get traffic, but also to make money.

• Create videos and post them online. Video marketing is becoming huge, and sites like YouTube get millions of visitors each month. These are people just waiting to see your video and visit your website.

• Become an active member of a few forums. Forum marketing is probably one of the most unused methods. All you have to do is be active, and leave a link back to your website in your signature. The more active you are the more people will look at you as a leader in the industry.

These are all great methods of how to get traffic to your website for free. Each one of the traffic generation methods listed above will not cost you a dime, and can easily be done with little or no experience.

So if you need traffic, and don't have the money to pay for it. Use the list of above methods to get your site noticed. Then when you have money rolling in increase your marketing budget and expand.
