Getting traffic is a combination of a lot of things. The key to success is to create great content that visitors want to use, search engines will love and other websites will naturally link to. Of course, it's easier said than done.
You can use pay per click advertising in the search engines to reach audiences looking for your products. You can use Google Adwords http://www.google.com/adwords or Yahoo http://searchmarketing.yahoo.com
Here are some shoestring marketing ideas that can help you get the visitors you need at the least cost possible:
1. Create the best content you can with the best products you can possibly offer. Your content is your best advertisement - if visitors love your content, then they will go back and spread the word to others.
2. Make it easy for users to recommend your site. Viral marketing is very important -- and easy to tap on the Web. But give your users the tools. Get a Recommend this Site script from websites such as cgiscripts.com and similar directories of scripts. Some even go as far as giving incentives to those who recommend the site to their friends. If only 10 people go to your site, but these 10 people invite 10 more - that's additional traffic that you get for FREE!
Recommend Site Scripts (various) http://php.resourceindex.com/Complete_Scripts/Website_Promotion/Recommend_Site/
Big Nose Bird Recommend this Site http://bignosebird.com/carchive/birdcast.shtml
CGI Resource Index http://cgi.resourceindex.com/Programs_and_Scripts/Perl/Website_Promotion/Recommend_Site/
Hostscripts http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Site_Recommendation/index.html
3. Rank well in the search engines (organic search results, not the pay per click). SEs can be a big source of traffic. The key is to create the best content in your niche. If you have good content, other websites will gladly link to you and offer your site as a resource to their audience. Check the on-page factors and be sure to get linked from authority sites in your topic area.
If you are going to read only one piece on search engine optimization, I suggest you read Brett Tabke of WebmasterWorld.com's "Successful Site in 12 Months with Google Alone: 26 steps to 15k a day." http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum3/2010.htm
4. Send out press releases. While outfits charge as much as $650 per release, there are free press release submission places on the Web. Press releases allow you to (a) attract media attention; (b) get more back links to your website without sending each website an email request; and (c) get more visibility especially if your press release gets in Google News or Yahoo News.

5. Submit articles. Write articles and submit them to websites accepting author submissions. You get exposure for your business; establishes you as an authority in your field, and allows you to get backlinks for your website. If 50 websites publish your article and it contains a link back to your website, then you easily get 50 links from a single article. The more links you have, the greater your chances for increasing your search engine rankings.
Here is a comprehensive list of where to submit your articles http://answers.yahoo.com/question/;_ylt=AhzreGmnCUicOoyedqypscUjzKIX?qid=1006022407481
6. Post a link to your site for free where it is allowed (always read the Terms of Use). Examples are:
Craigslist http://www.craigslist.com
Google Base http://base.google.com
Classifieds for Free http://www.classifiedsforfree.com/...
Text Link Exchange http://www.txtswap.com/
Recycler.com http://www.recycler.com/
Yahoo Classifieds http://classifieds.yahoo.com/
US Free Ads http://www.usfreeads.com/ |

I agree with all of the responders except where they advise paying for anything other than the physical website.
Do not pay for website traffic at any time. How much free traffic you get from Google,Yahoo, MSn or any others of them depends largely on the quality of your content....period.
If you are not passionate about the subject, that , you cannot hide. Your website should have a rallying theme. It should be something that would do for nothing if you could , and had the time. That spirit, when it exists, is very distinguishable and sticky....folks can't let it go.
I think where most go wrong is getting the website, naming it, then struggling with everything else. The WEB Host is the most important element in the entire process because it should , empower you to do the very best with the site that you can possibly do in the most non-threatening and productive way possible.
It should have all of the tools necessary, and the entire process should be as stacking blocks. It should have brainstorming tools that can drill your topic down to the most profitable "keywords possible...and ones that are in great demand.
The whole idea behind getting great ready-to-buy traffic, is to provide passionate information around which high in-demand keywords are wrapped that draw human surfers that Search Engines identify to find your quality content.
Your very site name should be among the highest-in-demand keywords in your site, because it should be brainstromed and drilled down to keywods that have high demand,low supply, and are extremely profitable.
There is a process that describes this entire process, and it has become the mantra of the followers of Dr. Ken Evoy of SiteSell. It's called CTPM, where C=Content,T=Traffic,P=PreSell, and M=Monetize.
Simply put, Content , passionately written, draws ready to-buy-traffic to your site that is quietly monetized as the very last step in the process.
You can find a description of this in Dr. Evoy's FREE E-Book at the Blog below. Once at the Blog Site, scroll down on right side to Recent Topics, then "I Hate To Say I Told You So.....but". Click there and follow the link to "The TAO of CTPM. Scroll half way down page to download the book.
He also offers quite a few more FREE E-Courses that further simplify the process at the Free Trial Site....and they are totally free.
You'll have to bring a passion for your subject matter.
Dr. Evoy puts you in the drivers seat, empowers you to stay there, to own your traffic you'll get for free.....with a little work on your part of course.
Sign on to the FREE affiliate site and you can participate in the most focused and topical forums on building High Quality in-demand websites that can found anywhere on the "Net". |

Here are 9 free ways to increase traffic to your website (without relying on Google). However, if you consistently work at getting traffic, you may find that you start climbing up the rankings in Google.
1. Yahoo Answers
Start answering related questions to build up your reputation and get people attracted to you and your website. You can even include links where appropriate.
2. Article writing and press releases
Submit articles and press releases related to your website and include a link to your website in the resource box at the bottom of your article.
3. Link exchanges and link directories
Exchange links with webmasters who have sites related to the topic of your website. Search for link directories where you can submit your URL for free.
4. Traffic exchanges
The idea of traffic exchanges is that you visit other sites in return for people visiting your site. Traffic Swarm is an example of a traffic exchange.
5. Blogging
Search engines tend to like blogs because of the quality content. Setup a blog related to the topic of the website and post valuable content on a regular basis. Use pinging and tagging to increase your traffic.
6. Forum Posting
Post to related forums with a signature that includes a link to your website. There are many out there. If you want to find some, just search on Google for <keyword phrase> +forum
7. Social Networking
These are sites like DirectMatches, AdLandPro, Ryze, and MySpace. Find people with related interests. Make friends and invite people to your site. Post your link to your website on your profile
8. Email Signature
Put a signature in your email that includes a link to your website. You probably already send emails, so why not use that to increase traffic?
9. Word of Mouth
Tell everyone you know about your website, like friends and family. You can ask them if they would to give their opinion about your website. |

I hate to say this but content without links is 100% worthless!
Bizrate.com lacks content, all they have is a few descriptions and an image on the pages, but rank for millions of keywords!
Learn seo and build links.
Links account for 80% of top search engine rankings.
Dont buy the "content is king" theory!
You will end up with a beautiful content site that nobody see's but you and momma.

There is no sure fire way to get guaranteed traffic, particularly if it is free and/or your are unwilling to pay for it. Rankings can take a few months even after you have optimized pages. This is because search engine marketing companies (and yourself, i assume) do not control search engines such as Google, Yahoo and MSN Live Search Engines. In addition, why would you do it yourself when you can get a professional who knows what they are actually doing?
I would suggest that you come up with a plan that does paid advertising as a short-term and then for a long-term plan do the optimization and submission. |

You may want to consider some simple algorithms which, when observed and committed in designing of a website with placement of various critical metatags that can surely achieve a high search engine presence and increase Internet traffic to your website. These metatag strategies work well with published webpages at Google and Yahoo.
Design: Should you create an extensive Flash-based website, make sure to fill-in the property entries such as the Title, Description and Keywords. Failing to do so, leaves no hard HTML or ALT resource that can be readily indexed by search robots.
A non-Flash-based website which relies on hard text, is far easier to be indexed by search robots. Limit the use of stylized text saved as .gifs since as a graphic, they are not indexable by search robots.
Avoid use of frames since any number of search robots are unable to properly classify textual material.
Placement of Metatags:
A ranking or search order does take place with Google and Yahoo and it begins with the "Title" metag which should consist of no more than 65 characters separated by commas. The "Title" should describe in generic terms, the goods and services, followed by a location from which the resource is located, i.e., city, state. The placement of a domain name which is not generic within the "Title" is not appropriate, unless your domain name is a major recognizable brand name.
The second metatag is the "Description" which is usually 25-30 words to form a complete sentence which best describes one's goods and services.
And the very last category - "Keywords" are also somewhat limited to 15-16 words which can be plural and compound in nature.
Here's a demonstration of an actual FIRST PAGE placement on Google's search engine with the submission of very "generic" set of key word queries:
1. Go to Google's search engine.
2. At the search entry, type in the words "ecommerce tutorials seo" [and of course, leave out the quotes ["]
3. Hit "Enter."
4. There will appear some 1.67 MILLION search results.
5. Check out the No. 2 search entry "Welcome to Downtown L.A." which currently uses the above-referenced algorithms to achieve their FIRST PAGE position.
Good luck! |
