When trying to generate traffic, always remember that you want to drive targeted traffic. Targeted traffic means that the visitors who come to your site are your target audience. Here is a quick example.
If you go to an Ezine about gardening to post an ad about web hosting, you may be receiving untargeted traffic. A small percentage of the visitor may still convert to sales. But it is very difficult to convert untargeted traffic into paying customers. You are looking at a conversion rate of about 0.03%. If you are looking to make more money, you must learn how to drive targeted traffic. When done right, you will experience conversion rates of between 3% to 5%. There are may ways to drive targeted traffic on the Internet. One of the easiest ways to do so is through forum posting. Forums are Internet communities that are made up of members who share similar interest. For example, if you are promoting an Internet application, you can getting free traffic from active webmaster forums. Usually, traffic from forums convert unusually well. If you are patient enough, you can get conversion rates of 10% or higher. That is because most forum members are already interested in what you have to sell. All you have to do is to build a relationship with them. Here is how you get drive traffic without getting yourself banned. First of all, don't go into a forum thinking that you can spam the forums and get away with it. Spamming just doesn't work. It's a short term traffic generation strategy. Sooner or later, your account will get banned. Instead, try to offer something of value first. You can post a new report on the forum, or a new article. You can try to answer questions that are posted by other forum members. In other words, make yourself useful. Be a contributor instead of a spammer. If you are new to the forum, don't expect anything in return for your time. Learn to give first before taking. On most forums, you are allowed to promote your own sites using forum signatures. Forum signatures are links that you can tag to every post that you make on the forum. This is an indirect form of advertising. When you participate in related threads, readers who are interested in what you have to offer will click through the links and visit your website. You get higher conversion rates when others see you as an expert in your field. That is why it is important that you contribute right from the very beginning. Earn the respect of other forum members. They are more likely to buy from you if you have something useful that can help them. Remember to use your target keyword phrases in your signature links for SEO purposes.Affiliate Marketing is a marketing practice in which affiliate get paid to promote advertisers offers. Affiliate programs are easy way to monetize your website traffic or to earn more money by purchasing advertisements on high traffic websites.
Is social media going to kill SEO?
I am constantly reading the posts on here and everyday (usually multiple times a day) people have article marketing questions. There is no problem with asking questions. Questions are how you learn.
What I'm about to share with everyone is a step by step method how article marketing has worked for me, and I hope it can benefit everyone. If you don't implement it, maybe it can give you some new ideas of your own.
This is my opinion on how to get the most traffic from an article.
Okay - this method is assuming you submit all of your articles to EZA, with a good title, good article content, and a good resource box.
**************************************************
1st Step: Open up Word Pad - or whatever you like to use. The program you use must be easy to copy and paste that is really the only requirement.
* Type out the keywords you are going to target in your article and separate them with commas. -- press enter a few times
* Create your title --- then press enter a few times.
* Create your article summary --- press enter a few times
* TYPE THE ARTICLE ---- and press enter a few more times.
* Then of course type up your resource box.
Each part of writing an article is equally important do not neglect anything. Once you are done SAVE YOUR ARTICLE TO YOUR COMPUTER.
**************************************************
2nd Step: Submit your article to EZA. (ezinearticles.com) This should be easy because you just saved it to your computer. (The reason for pressing enter a few times between the different parts of the article was to help you stay organized.)
**************************************************
3rd Step: Wait one week - my favorite step for my method to market an article
*************************************************
4th Step: After that week has passed you are going to do some more with that article. Go back to your original article which you saved on your computer and copy your resource box. Then yes you guessed it press enter a few more times and paste it below the original one.
You are going to make some slight changes - on this resource box make one of the links point to your approved EZA article, and let the other still point to your webpage. Once you have completed this...
************************************************** *
5th Step: Submit your article with your new resource box (the one with one link pointing to your EZA article and the other pointed to the site that you are trying to promote) to the following 10 sites:
1. Go Articles (goarticles.com)
2. Articles Base (articlesbase.com)
3. Search Warp (searchwarp.com)
4. Article Dashboard (articledashboard.com)
5. Buzzle (buzzle.com)
6. Article Alley (articlealley.com)
7. Amazines (amazines.com)
8. Isnare (isnare.com)
9. Article City (articlecity.com)
10. Hot Article Directory (pubs.acs.org/hotartcl/index.html)
*************************************************
Wrap up: Ok I know what you are thinking submitting your article to all these sites is going to be time consuming... Really it is not too bad once you have your username and password to all of these sites.
You have everything at your fingertips because your article is saved to your computer!
The traffic that ends up going to your EZA article and ultimately the website you are trying to promote grows exponentially and it is definitly going to be worth your time. I wish good fortune to everyone marketing online and I hope everyone has success.
Enjoy!
