Recently while consulting on a website design and optimization project my client was not worried how the website would look or perform. It turns out that my clients bottom line concern was about how to get people to come their website once it was created, optimized, and online.
I proceeded to lay out a plan that would deliver traffic at an increasing rate if applied and implimented on a consistent basis.
1. For an initial burst of traffic I recomend implimenting Click Thru Marketing, a good resource to use is: http://wwwGoneClicking.com
2. Next you should submit your blog or website to Google and yahoo, 77% of people use Google so you must have your site submitted there first including your site map. It may take a few days before your blog or site shows up in the search engines so do not worry if on the first or second day your site is not listed.
3. Now you should start gathering back links and joining social networking sites such as FaceBook and MySpace, and tell people what your blog or website is about plus how it can help solve their problem. Go to Google and type in keywords that are related to your blog or website. Contact the websites or blog and tell them you would like to exchange back links with them. A good back link list numbers around 100 or more so it will take some time to establish however it will be worth it in the long run.
4. Make sure you optimize your blog or site for the keywords that you want to target.
5. Next, establish a Youtube account. There are over 40 million users that visit youtube every day. If you are not promoting your website with Youtube you are missing a lot of worthy customers and clients. Always use a catchy title for the video and advertise your video on other websites.
6. Another great way to drive people to your website is by using Google adwords. As an addition to Google Adwords you can also use Adsense to put your ads on other people’s websites which is an additional way to earn money as well. If you want people to come to your website sign up for Google adwords, it does not cost much and can return a greater sum than the amount you invest. Your ads will be listed on peoples sites containing content like yours and on the Google search engine itself! If you do look into this just sign up for a Google account and go to Adwords it can be well worth your money.
Always to Your Success,

Instead of spending big bucks to advertise in print publications and participate in other costly offline marketing venues, many businesses of all sizes are turning to free to low cost internet methods and strategies to invest their time, effort and branding for a greater outreach. Because for much less than the price of one print classified ad, a company can generate many more leads, targeted leads, with methods that are free to very low cost on the Internet, while responses from print campaigns, if any, are often not worth the return on investment (ROI) in comparison.
Some of the more popular free to low cost internet marketing methods out there today follow.
1) Free Press Release and Article Directories – Well written articles and press releases help draw targeted Internet traffic to websites. Simply insert a link in the body of the press release that invites readers to visit a website for a free report or other offer in the last paragraph, and add a similar call to action in the resource box or byline or an article. Then submit the press releases and articles to free online article directories and press release sites. Find them by entering keywords like, “free article directory,” in Google or other top search engine.
2) Hire Ghostwriters – Hiring someone to write content for your blog, website, article and press release submissions work is easy to day and inexpensive when you outsource your work to ghostwriters. Find experienced, qualified writers on freelance bid sites like Elance.com and on forums in your niche and in the Internet marketing arena, like at WarriorForum.com.
3) Establish a Presence at Free Social Networking, Bookmarking and Other Sites – There are many places online where you can register for a free account, set up a web presence there, often with the ability to upload digital media to share with others, post on a blog and more, while also networking with fellow members and / or visitors to the site, as they make comments on your content, share their info and more. Some of these sites are:
Squidoo
Hubpages
Blogger
Wordpress
MySpace
Twitter
Find many more by searching Onlywire.com for starters. And sign up there to bookmark all your content for sharing with multiple sites and to learn more.
A couple points to keep in mind with these sites are: follow the rules at each, don’t spam and don’t go over board there. For example, Hubpages only allows two links to your sites, at the time of this writing. Don’t add three, trying to fake them out with an affiliate link. And don’t spam comments all over on other Hubs just to get links. This type negative activity can get you banned, your account closed.
4) Free Classified Online Ads – Search for “free classified ads” in Google and many sites show up. Some of the more popular places to submit your ads are:
a) craigslist
b) backpage
c) kijiji
d) gumtree
e) loquo
f) classifieds.myspace
g) expo.live
h) adlandpro
i) usfreeads
j) oodle
For help writing your ads and even submitting them and keeping them up to date on each site, consider hiring help, outsourcing with a ghostwriter experienced with sales copy, and a virtual assistant who can open accounts at each place, submit your ads and follow up as they expire to renew them, revise them, etc.
