How can I generate traffic to my website without paying a lot of money?

how to
Carolina M asked:


Ok, so I’m working on my home based business, and I’m trying to figure out how to get people to check it out.
I have my websites, my automated Online Marketing Tool and the Leadership! But now I need to figure out how to get people to find it.

What available ways are there out there, without paying? I know a good website that does this for you, but you have to pay A LOT!

Thanks! Any help is appreciated.

Caro.

    posting a link to it on here in your question would have been a good start. Ask random questions and post a link it it. Ask questions related to your business.

    You write good authentic content for keywords with high demand in the first place.

    You submit articles related to your homepage in article portals.

    You do the same for other home pages when you feel they are no competition for you.

    You look for links exchange with sites which complement yours by a service, or by similar topics.

    You avoid link farms and bad neighborhood links.

    You don’t try SEO tricks because you could get easily penalized by the SE.

    You submit comments in forums in threats related to your home page.

    You can establish a tool for others to upload content onto your site.

    You do social networking like with facebook, jumble upon, diggit and many others.

    You become a member in linkit.

    You answer questions in Yahoo.

    You list your business with Google.

    You provide more content yourself for your homelpage because content is the mother of home pages.

    You use video, audio and whatever is new and creates a buzz.

    Sure, you can buy adwords but, here, it’s important that you know what keywords to target and how much you are willing to pay.

    You can also sometimes buy other forms of advertising cheap, if lucky, but no guaranty is instant for traffic.

    Perhaps I forgot some strategies.

    You can click on my about me page where you find links to the program I use which teaches all these with tools and with examples and so much more.

    Hoping that I could help somehow with my suggestions.

    Happy to share with you…

    There are plenty of ways to get website traffic for free although most of them only send a very tiny amount of traffic.

    You could try participating in a forum in your niche. This is a good way to get interest in your site. Also, make sure you have a signature that links to your website.

    This is just one way to get free traffic.

    well… use some search engine optimization tricks we can increase traffic and page rank easily.

    Main basic thing is you should work on various factors of SEO ( search engine optimization) to get your site rank traffic well in the search engines. Basically, you should link your site to various sites outside the world. Once you get a good number of links, and when you give links to your site and maintain certain aspects in your site like updating the content regularly etc.,

    I’m working for an SEO company. However, feel free to write to me about any further queries.
