Are
you looking for ways to cut your advertising expenses and successfully
market
your online business for free and not have to spend time doing things
that
yield no return? Let's take a moment to look at what works and what
doesn't
with free targeted Internet traffic marketing techniques.
Publish
A Newsletter
Research
a series of topics specific to your niche market, then write a series
of highly
informative letters that will be interesting and useful of your target
audience. This will be the focus of your free targeted Internet traffic
advertising campaign. As your subscribers learn to trust your opinion,
they
will be happy to accept your recommendations for products including
your own or
your affiliate offers.
Search
Engine Optimization
Optimize
your website to get it more highly ranked on the search engines. Make
sure your
keywords are placed in the titles and subtitles as well as the main
body text.
Directory
Listings
There
are still hundreds of free directories where you can list your website.
A quick
search on Google will lead you to them. Posting your website details on
directories can be a chore, so limit your self to just a few
submissions per
session. Feedback may take a while to come through, so be patient and
don't
waste your time posting a second time if you do not hear anything
immediately
from the directory owner.
Swap
Links
Put
a link to a related site on your website, then contact the site owner,
explain
what you have done and why, and ask if he or she would be willing to
add your
link to his or her site. A lot of search engines still factor in link
popularity when assigning page rank to websites.
Traffic
Exchange Marketing
Join
several of these for free and get to know how they work. You earn
credits by
surfing other members' web pages on the traffic exchange. Once you have
accumulated some credits, your pages will be presented to other people
as they
surf the same traffic exchange.
Publish
Articles
Regularly
write and publish articles on your website or blog, and also submit
them to
article directories. With the article directories, you will be able to
include
a short promotional blurb with a link to your website at the bottom of
your
article. You will then get targeted Internet traffic when people read
your
article and after, click on your link.
E-book
Publishing
Research
a topic that your potential customers want to know about and turn it
into a
30-40 page e-book. Offer your e-book as a freebie for new subscribers
to your
e-newsletter.
Video
Marketing
If
you have the equipment, making and posting a video costs nothing
nowadays. Make
a whole series of videos about your services or similar topics.
Set
Up A Joint Venture
Look
out for someone with something positive to bring to the table such as a
big
subscribers list and a great product, but who is not a direct
competitor and
make a joint venture proposal. You could suggest that you each promote
your
product on the other's mailing list. You will both get your message out
to many
more people without having to pay for the promotion.
Take
these tips, turn them into a marketing plan and work your plan
consistently and
you will build a lot of free targeted Internet traffic for your online
business.
I wish you the best
of success,
