3 Tips for Getting Free Traffic to Your Site

With Internet Marketing traffic is everything. You want to get traffic to your site so that you can sell what you are offering. The more traffic you get the more sales you will potentially make. It is just that simple. Getting the traffic to your site is not always so easy. So here are 3 tips that can help you along the way.

Signature in Forums and in Your Email

One of the best ways to get free traffic to your site is by putting a link in the signature of your email messages and in the signature of forums you belong to.

You should try to belong to two or three of the most popular forums within your niche. As a member you want to make great posts and offer great advice to other members. Then after making about 15 posts, you should put a link back to your site in your signature.

Another effective method to really increase your traffic is by offering a valuable free report. Provide a link using your autoresponder and be sure to capture an email address and then give them your killer free report. As I have stated it has to be good like the ones I have offered so your subscribers will understand that you have value to offer.

Social Networking Sites

Another great tip for getting free traffic to your site is to use social networking sites. These sites (also called Web 2.0) are very popular with people and they also rank very well with the search engines. Probably the two hottest social networking sites are Squidoo and HubPages. Twitter is also on the way to becoming the place to create free traffic.

You need to make valuable, content rich pages on these sites. You also need to focus on keywords (to help you show up on the search engines).

Then place a link back to your site on the page. Once again, you will get even more traffic if you offer a free report.

Create YouTube Videos

Despite how bad the video might be, it will be seen and it will get you traffic because YouTube is one of the most popular sites on the Internet. Don't worry though, it is not as hard as you might think and there are so many helpful resources it can be quite fun.
