Traffic

Traffic is everything to an internet business, as without traffic you won't make any sales. Think of it as being like people through the door of your store.

There are a number of ways you can start to drive traffic to your website. They are ranked roughly in order of importance, including the basics - such as getting your own site. Search Engines are always the main source of traffic on the Internet, with other methods falling gradually in effectiveness.

However, your mileage may vary: One strong Viral Marketing campaign has the potential, for example, to outrank all others. There may be some crossover between certain methods (Article Marketing will drive direct traffic, as well as increase PageRank for SEO, for example) and the ranking is a combination of the total number of potential visitors compared to the number of targeted visitors (visitors who just hit your site vs visitors who want to see it). In this blog you will learn how to increase traffic, traffic tips. You will find here submitters, mailer, directories and much more keep visiting.

Forum Marketing

This takes you directly to your customers. If you look for and use forums that cover your niche, for example a Fishing forum for the fishing example we have used throughout this report, then you can participate in conversations there - with a link to your site in your "signature file". This is a small block of text that appears at the end of each of your posts.

You can also be more proactive in promoting your site, by answering queries (or even posting your own) where a potential answer can be found at your own site.

It's important to read the forum first to get a feel for the style used there, and to use the correct etiquette when responding. If you rub the forum regulars up the wrong way your promotions are doomed to failure.
