How To Get Free Web Site Traffic
Copyright 2005 East Tech LLC
There are many ways to get free web site traffic to your website
or business promotion. One of the best ways is the use of free
traffic exchanges. These exchanges allow you to submit your
website into the rotation with hundreds, or thousands of other
websites for the membership of that particular traffic exchange.
Some traffic exchanges are better than others, so you need to
make sure the ones you choose, are best for you and your
business.
Needless to say, you want to pick a free traffic exchange that
has lots of members so there's much more exposure to your
websites, sales pages or affiliate programs. You also want to
make sure the audience would be more likely to purchase your
product or service you're trying to sell. For example, if you're
selling antique dolls and the free traffic exchange you're
joining is made up of 95% webmaster business opportunities, then
your chances of selling something are slim to none. You need to
know your market.
A free traffic exchange offers webmasters the ability to promote
their websites or affiliate marketing campaigns for free, or at
very low cost. The idea is to surf around other members
websites, and for each viewing, you get so many of your own URLs
and banners added into the rotation for other members to view.
There are hundreds, if not thousands of free traffic exchanges
online today. The trick is to find the ones that work best for
you. Not all free traffic exchanges are created equal and the
most active ones are not necessarily the best ones for your
needs.
Free traffic exchanges are a great marketing tool for a variety
of reasons. The most obvious reason is that you get lots of
people looking, and hopefully clicking on your website or
promotional pages. But there are hidden benefits to free traffic
exchanges you may not have even considered.
Some free traffic exchanges may convert sales like crazy for one
person, and be a complete waste of time for another. If everyone
were promoting the same website or affiliate program is the same
traffic exchange for example, then chances are you would not
make many sales. Even if you were promoting the #1 thing on the
internet, if everyone promoted the same program, your chances
are much lower that someone will purchase through your website
or link to make you any money. Also, when people see the same ad
over and over again, they get desensitized to it. Don't fall
into this trap. It's one thing to try and sell a very popular
product/service/ebook etc, but it's another thing when a million
other people are trying to do it too. Competition is a good
thing, because it validates your market, but too much
competition is tough and it's time to move on to something
else.
We all know clicking on ads in a free traffic exchange can be
very boring, monotonous and can take a lot of time. That's why
you need to make the best of your opportunity or you will just
be wasting a lot of your time and effort on something that just
isn't working. If you have your own niche website, then you
already differentiated yourself from the pack. If you are an
affiliate marketer, then you need to find products/services that
everyone else isn't promoting, especially within that particular
traffic exchange.
One way to use free traffic exchanges to your advantage is to
join a few at first, and see if your sales pick up. If your
sales aren't doing well, then test out a few more. When you do
find a few traffic exchanges that appear to be generating sales
for you, then narrow those down until you find the one, or two
that are working. Now concentrate your efforts on those because
they're the ones you want. At least for now. Things may change,
so keep an eye on your campaigns and if sales seem to be falling
off, then it might be time to change your offer or find another
traffic exchange that could pick your profits up again. As I
mentioned, your individual promotion is everything. If you're
trying to promote something everyone else is, I don't care what
traffic exchange service you're using, your sales conversions
are going to be very low, or nothing at all. You cannot always
blame the exchange. Sometimes you have to look at yourself and
think if you're doing all you can to make sales.
If you're going to be using multiple free traffic exchanges, and
I recommend that you do, your first priority should be to pick
up a multi-tab web browser. Many of these browsers are free and
run on PCs and MACs. The tabs feature allows you to have one web
browser open with multiple tabs each going to a separate
website. You could easily put 5 or 6 of your free exchange sites
in these tabs, and earn credits for all of them at the same
time. So instead of surfing for 1/2 an hour or an hour earning
200 hits for one exchange, you could earn 200 hits for 5
exchanges in the same amount of time. This is a huge time saver
and multiplies your earned hits by 5X or 6X.
Getting free traffic to your website can be a lot of work. If
you don't have the money to spend on full blown PPC
(pay-per-click) campaigns like Google AdWords, free traffic
exchanges are a great way to get the traffic you need to get
visitors to your site and close the sale.
