• Article Marketing- Article marketing is a great way to start building targeted traffic, and is probably the most easily accessible traffic building technique for somebody starting out. Article Marketing involves writing articles on a particular topic and submitting them to article directories. With article marketing, you can get traffic in two ways- by using targeted keyword phrases designed to help you appear in the Search Engines, and buy having ezine publishers pick up articles for use on their own site. This creates backlinks for you because you can write a resource box at the bottom of the articles with links to your own website.
• Newsletters- Most customers will probably not buy from you based on one visit to your website. As such, you should try and get them to sign up to your newsletter. Then you can provide them with regular updates of useful articles so that you build your reputation. When they are ready to buy, they will be more likely to buy from you.
• Blogs- You should have your own blog. Like a newsletter, it should be used to provide free, useful content. The benefit of blogs is that they can also be used for Search Engine Optimisation purposes.
• Social Bookmarking- Social bookmarking sites like delicious and stumbled upon are growing in popularity. Bookmarking your own website on these sites can be a great way to boost your traffic.
• Forum Posting- Another great way to build traffic is through forum posting. By building your reputation by helping out in forums related to your niche, you have a great chance to get forum members to click on the links in your forum signatures.
• Guest Blogging- Guest blogging is another way to get traffic. Make friends with other bloggers and offer to write guest posts on their blogs with a link back to your own website.
• Allow Bookmarking of webpages- As well as book marking your own sites with the social bookmarking websites, you should put buttons on your own site to allow others to bookmark your site or posts.
• Run a contest- Nothing generates traffic like a competition. If you are offering a great prize, your traffic can go sky high!
• Offer Free, Useful Information- A great way to build traffic, and your business, is to go above and beyond in the information you provide your readers. This scares people as many website owners think they are throwing away too much profit by doing this. Conversely, you should actually find that your profits grow as you can sell more expensive back end products.
