If you own a website you probably know how hard it can be to get visitors to your site. You also probably know that getting website traffic is the key to running a healthy and profitable online business. Without traffic your online business will not last very long.
Now getting good website traffic can cost a lot of money, and most people who are just starting out more then likely do not have the money to pay for advertising. So they need another option, and that is where free and easy traffic comes in.
One of the biggest myths out there is that most people think free or cheap traffic does not convert into leads or sales. This is completely false. Free traffic does work, and it actually works pretty well.
So how can you increase your web traffic for free?
Well there are a few ways to do it. A few methods are article marketing, email marketing, classifieds, blogs, videos, and forums. All of these methods are free, and have been proven to work time after time.
- Article marketing has been around for years, and it’s probably the best way to get good free traffic flowing to your website. You simply write an article on a specific topic, and submit it to article directories. Inside each article you submit you can leave links back to your website.
- Email marketing is another great source for getting traffic. You can use safelists to send messages out to them telling them about your business. This is a very effective way of promoting something online.
- Post classified ads. These are small ads that you can post to any classified ad site for free. People do read and see these. Most marketers never use this method even though it’s proven to work.
- Build a blog. Blogging is becoming a huge part of the Internet, and you can create your own blog for free, and submit it to blog directories and get free traffic. Blogs are a proven way to not only get traffic, but also to make money.
- Create videos and post them online. Video marketing is becoming huge, and sites like YouTube get millions of visitors each month. These are people just waiting to see your video and visit your website.
- Become an active member of a few forums. Forum marketing is probably one of the most unused methods. All you have to do is be active, and leave a link back to your website in your signature. The more active you are the more people will look at you as a leader in the industry.
These are all great methods of how to get traffic to your website for free. Each one of the traffic generation methods listed above will not cost you a dime, and can easily be done with little or no experience.
So if you need traffic, and don’t have the money to pay for it. Use the list of above methods to get your site noticed. Then when you have money rolling in increase your marketing budget and expand.

Chances are if you’re reading this article you’re looking for ways to make money online. Consider your self lucky because today I’m going to share with you a proven method that allows anyone to make at least $500 a month working online. Now the good thing is I’m going to show you exactly how to make this money without spending any money in advertising.
The way I’m going to show you how to make money will deal with affiliate marketing, and using the help of a free service called ClickBank. First lets go over what exactly affiliate marketing is, and how it can help you make money.
Affiliate marketing is simply selling someone’s product, and in return they pay you a small commission for making a sale. Depending on the type of product you sell the commission you can make can range anywhere from a couple of dollars all the way to a few hundred.
Now the free service you will use to find products to promote is click bank. ClickBank has been around for a very long time, and has a very good reputation of paying people on time. You can visit their website and search the market place for product to promote. I suggest you pick a product that you like, and feel good about promoting. It also doesn’t hurt to already know a little bit about what you are promoting.
After you pick your product from the ClickBank market place the fun now begins. Now we will start to focus on how to start advertising this product to those who need it. First off you must understand that not everyone is going to need or want your product.
So you need to find what is called your target audience. A target audience will be a specific group of people who need or want what you are selling. These are red hot buyers.
For marketing you product I suggest starting off by doing a little article marketing. This method is also known as the bum marketing method, and has been around for years and is proven to work time after time. You should write reviews of the product, and other articles that just talk in general about what the product is and how it might help someone.
With article marketing you should make it a goal of yours to write 3 to 5 articles per week, and submit them to the top article directories. Make sure that when you do submit your articles for your ClickBank product you leave a link back to your website you are using to promote your product.
Finally our last proven method of free online marketing for your click bank product is social networking sites. Social network sites are where people go to meet and make friends, but they are also used to sell things online, and it’s a proven method that works.
Create a simple MySpace and/or FaceBook account. Once you have your account make your profile page talk about how you work online, and what you’ve done in the past. As you do this leave links back to your websites, and maybe even recommend a product to people. The most important thing though is you do not want to turn your profile into a sales page. Just give them enough information so they click the links on your page.
This method works extremely well. One of the main keys to making it work though is building up friends. The more friends you have the more people will see your profile page, which leads to more clicks. Also you will be able to post bulletins to more people.
So there you have it. This is a proven way to make $500 or more per month promoting a click bank product. If you wish to make more money all you have to do is pick another product and repeat the same steps above for your new product.

On November 2nd VidEngage launched their limited time free IMR positions.
If you’ve been with any type of business before I’m sure you heard “timing is everything”. Well with VidEngage giving away free IMR spots and allowing members to upgrade for a very small fee of $9.97/m who can’t afford that?
So what does this mean?
Well VidEngage is going to experience enormous growth over the next few months or so, and since they’ve just released this days ago you can lock in your spot before hundreds and even thousands of other people do.
I know exactly what’s going to happen (to most people). They will see this and think nothing of it at first. Then 2 – 3 months from now they will see it again and say “WOW this is huge now I should have joined when I first saw it”. It happens all the time (take my word for it).
Trust me when I say if you are looking for away to make money online VidEngage allows you to earn a true residual income and it only will cost you $9.97/m. Hundreds are already joining, and its only going to grow.
Where would you be RIGHT NOW if you would have joined MySpace the first month they came out, and they paid you for all the members that joined after you did? I think you would be a wealthy person.
