Have you been banging your head against the wall trying to come up with ways to increase your website traffic without emptying your bank account?
Anybody who tells you that starting a website is a low-cost way to start a business obviously hasn’t paid for pay-per-click ads or tried to place ads in half-decent ezines. Paid online advertising doesn’t come cheap.
However, there are no-cost or even low-cost alternatives that will cost you nothing but your time. Here are some of my favorite ways to drum up website traffic:
Free Ebook Traffic
1. Create a free ebook or report that’s filled with valuable information that people will pass around and share. This is called viral marketing because it spreads all over the Internet quickly like a virus.
Your ebook doesn’t have to be long, it can have anywhere between 15 to 50 pages to be considered valuable to people. You can fill your ebook with articles that you’ve written or pick a topic and create some valuable information relating to your website. If you don’t enjoy writing you can always hire someone to ghostwrite the ebook.
Make sure you have links throughout the ebook back to your website and that you encourage people to distribute it freely.
eBay Traffic
2. Use eBay to create traffic to your website. You do this by listing your website link on your “About Me” page in eBay and directing people to your “About Me” page within your ad listing.
You don’t even have to be selling anything directly related to your website to drive traffic to your site but selling something compatible will increase your targeted traffic (i.e. your customers will already be looking for what you’re selling and may be thirsty for more and click on your website.)
You could also use the free ebook or report you created in # 1 to sell on eBay for $.01. eBay buyers do search out penny auctions, generally to increase their feedback, but also because they’re genuinely interested in the topic.
Blog Traffic
3. Blogs have become another easy way to increase your traffic. By just setting one up you create another link into your site. People love blogs and love to read what others have to say. By creating a blog on a subject related to your website you already have targeted visitors who won’t hesitate to click onto your website if they want to learn more information.
Setting one up is extremely easy and most blog websites are free. I recommend trying out Blogger.com as it’s operated by Google. Also, by setting up a blog on Blogger.com you can almost guarantee you’ll be picked up by Google spiders quicker than if you manually submitted your website to them.
MySpace.com Traffic
4. Using MySpace.com to advertise your website has become a new way to increase your traffic. This site is mainly a “people meeting” site but you can list your website and create friendships with thousands of people in a very short time.
You simply need to mention your website URL when you send a message to the community bulletin board. This can create a tremendous flood of traffic to your website as there are over 35,000,000 subscribers to MySpace.com.
By spending a little time and using some creativity, promoting your website doesn’t have to drain your bank account. Take some time to check out these opportunities and you’ll find yourself with a steady stream of website traffic in no time.
