All-In-One: Traffic Tips

Sometime I really have to admire those can get 10k to 600k visitors PER DAY..

IS IT REAL ..

I only know if you use "Bots" is possible.....

Thank you! This looks great.

Thats great advice

Can you elaborate on these two options for me? I'm new to this. Don't understand what you mean.

You can buy leads, use a hyper dialer to call your leads and connect with them
one on one, and according to how the conversation goes, if they qualify share
your website with them. Do phone broadcasts and provide the option for leads
to call you instead. Use postcards.

Great source for more traffic. Thanks for sharing this idea.

Add AdBaze Advertising Platform to the list. AdBaze is an online advertising and marketing platform for websites and businesses.

Thank you for this. Very helpful.

Nice list... thanks!

you share so many ways to get traffic with people that they will get tons of traffic just using that strategy rely good way to go...

Thanks man

really very informative post . actually i am new here and also bloging . i have many blog i want to increase my traffic and page rank.. today i got proper idea from here .. so i appreciate your posting . thanks

Love your share. It's really awesome list for us.
Now we can go ahead with this

Oh guys this is really really great and full of information points. First i appreciate your hard working because i know very well its not easy. I hope everyone agree with me...?

Guest Blogging can be used for squeeze pages too right? I'm pretty sure I've received opt ins to my squeeze from articles and blogging before...

Yeah I found this really good Web Page on Targeted Traffic here

very well said. Also

1) find the exact threads (not just forum sites) of your keywords
2) find the forums that frequently have threads of your interest
3) find and study the popular threads related to your keywords.

I agree with everything you said. You offer value and gain their trust

I have to agree with you on putting out quality content. I have been trying for a few years to put out daily content on the couple of blogs I started.

I have chosen now to try to make sure I blog at least twice a week, but not necessarily every day, which allows time to research topics and put solid content together.

Thanks for the tip. Great advice

I totally agree with this,

Just dumping out tons of content may bring you some traffic, but, why would I come back to your blog or site--if the content is terrible.

However, if you take the time to actually write content that is useful and is really in-depth about your topic or niche--the reader will know you are truly an expert in your niche--and chances are, will keep coming back to read more of your stuff--or check out more of your videos.

The other thing that keeps me coming back to sites is really in-depth reviews of products--telling me more than--it is a great product--as this tells me nothing.

But if you break the product down and tell me why you like it and why you don't and what it can do for me--be it heath or business related--I will keep coming back to your site

Hey thanks Victor I've read a lot of traffic increasing strategies but just your few lines motivated me alot. its just less than 2 weeks I started my blog and due to low traffic I literally feel depressed. I hope you can understand what I'm saying and feeling

How would you suggest people to utilize all of these strategies at once? Break them up in days or weeks....?

Awesome list thanks I'm bookmarking this

You're post gave me an epiphany. I forgot Youtube is a social site. If I want to increase my video views I should be commenting on other videos.

Duh

Rick

i like this pinterest foot print am going to implement it now

however spamming G+ is risky.
Getting banned by FB or pinterest is sad, but being banned by Google will bee an absolute disaster.

How do you use google + to connect with prospects?

This is great advice. I think people become swamped if they look at lots of possible ideas. As a previous commenter mentioned, it is best to focus on one method, master that one and then try the next.
This suggestion of looking for posts with lots of views is excellent.
I also like to mix that strategy with commenting on a new post that is likely to draw a lot of attention.

Sounds like cloning or piggybacking. But intriguing none the less. Not sure why I hadn't thought of this before as I used to do a similar technique in the blogging world and it worked well.

Now that I think about it many of the BASIC things I and others did in the beginning are the things that actually worked but somewhere along the line we got too sophisticated. Time to go back to basics fitting it to modern times

How does it work?

Image/photo sharing traffic.

There are many image sharing sites, such as flickr.com, where you can share your images (in any niche) and include a link back to your own site/blog.

But you know what works even better? If your website URL is written on your picture! This can be extremely powerful if your image goes viral. Memes.. hint hint

Here’s a complete list of photo sharing sites that you can use: List of photo-sharing websites - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Document sharing sites

Here are top 20 document sharing sites:

18. slidelive.com
19. slideserve.com
20. slideburner.com

eBay.com traffic

eBay is one of the biggest internet sites on the internet. And as with other big sites out there, there’s always a way to get a slice of that traffic.

You can do this by selling reports and e-books you write in your niche (write some useful how-tos and sell them for very low price, the point in this case is the traffic, not the money).

Also you can create an about page , where you can put a link to your blog/site.

Craiglist.com Traffic


Craiglist is the most trafficked classified ad site on the internet. Craiglist traffic can work for any niche: bizz-op, dating, free stuff, local lead gen.. you name it.


You can also try these classified ad sites:

Pinterest.com traffic


According to Mashable.com, Pinterest.com Drives More Traffic to Blogs Than Twitter! Also Pinterest is generating more referral traffic to websites than YouTube, Google+ and LinkedIn *combined*.

If you are not utilizing pinterest traffic yet, you are missing out a lot.

With Pinterest you can promote almost anything, from Amazon, CPA, Adsense sites to your own products and clickbank offers.


Missspeled domain traffic

This goes more into the grey hat area. I’m not doing this nor do I recommend, however I’ll cover this anyway if you want to take a risk

Miss-speled traffic is essentially a traffic that comes from missspelled web addresses. For example, there are millions of people everyday typing google.com into the address bar, a small % of these people sometimes make a mistake and put gppgle.com by mistakenly clicking “pp” instead of “oo”. So, if you owned gppgle.com I bet you’d received a great amount of traffic every single day. Get the point?

This is just an example, however you can still use this idea on other websites. Here’s a hint: trending events. Such us popular movies. Right now when I’m writing this post on WF, "The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug" is all over the place. Having this in mind, you can buy all sort of variation domain misspellings or typos.

Coupon traffic

If your business offer coupon codes for your product or services, don’t forget coupon directories. People love discounts and coupons. Groupon.com is a living example.

Make sure you add your coupons to the following coupon/deal of the day directories:
bensbargains.com
couponcabin.com
couponcraze.com
couponcraze.com
coupongirl.com
couponmountain.com
currentcodes.com

Podcasting traffic

Podcasting is a great way if you are shy in front of the camera and feel more comfortable talking in to the microphone.

Podcasting can be used for any niche.

I highly recommend paid PR sites. Why? For example, PRWeb.com for $89 will distribute your press release to thousands of news sites including giants like cnn.com, bbc.com and other.

You can get thousands of visitors and hundrends of high quality links from news authority sites. Just don’t forget to include your website link in your press release!

CPA Network traffic

This one is for more advanced marketers. If you have a product (in any niche) you can put your product in front of thousands of active affiliates (publishers) and start receiving sales almost immedeatly.

Infographics (viral traffic)

Inforgraphics are getting more and more popular these days. The only downside is can be expensive to create one, however if it’s done right – the results can be enormous.

Successful infographics can go viral at the speed of light. Bloggers simply digg infographics! They are also very popular on Pinterest.com and Digg.com.

Having an URL on the infographics or giving the permission to repost the infograhics including a link back to the site can bring some nice amount of traffic.


Hope this will give you some idea. I will update this list later on.

Btw, great idea, Paul!

your right on target - the road to success is through list building, and then treating your list with respect. YouTube has provided me rapid list development by driving traffic to an opt in instead of directly to an affiliate offer or website.

What are you offering the people using pinterrest (in what niches does it work?)

I guess that might have been because it's a little (if not, massively) over adventurous and wouldn't be compatible with the budget of the typical person here.

Read through these threads, pick a couple and research the heck out of them, set up some simple testing and go to work.

I say content re-purposing. Using that same article video, etc. Turning it into another form of content. Then syndicating it to relevant blogs, sites, and forums.

Eric

Thank you for the information over what works best. But I must ask you What is Content Syndication??

What is the best traffic course that you've taken?

Can you explain to me as a newbie what is "blogger outreach"? Can you give me an example how I can use it practically?

I always say KEEP IT SIMPLE AND IF POSSIBLE FREE.

4 BEST ARE:

1) POWERFUL SOLO ADS USING ACTIVE LISTS FROM OTHER EXPERTS IN YOUR NICHE
2) HIGHLY RELEVANT KEYWORDED YOUTUBE VIDEOS
3) BACKLINKING FROM FORUMS LIKE THIS ONE
4) FB ADS EASY TO USE HIGHLY RELEVENT AND TARGETED QUITE CHEAP
Now, that's targeted.


Keep your costs down by mastering one at a time and test each area. But just remember that, you have to BE THE END USER/CUSTOMER. Where are they.

Most free traffic takes a few weeks or months to build up. So if you're doing free traffic and it's looking slow, don't give up. Keep going!

Social media is more important now than ever before.

Youtube is a beast.

And SEO still works.

Those are 4 of my best free traffic tips.

I see the above traffic source is paid ad. How about the free source?

care to share your solo ad resources?

Thanks for sharing your experience! I love when people are talking about what they tried and not just some ideas which look good

From my experience long term natural SEO traffic is more efficient than everything else in terms of ROI.

They're not; I have found them to be a complete waste of time. For many types of offers I have found paid advertising to be the fastest, most efficient way to obtain traffic and scale it up.

While my content-rich websites follow the basic rules of SEO, I don't waste any timee actively getting links or any of that other nonsense. Some people do and it works for them and that's fine. From my own experience, it never made any sense from a pure ROI perspective for any of my sites. Yes, there are marketers crushing it with SEO, but for me it's always been too much of a pain in the arse.

Despite my feelings, I think every marketer should still know the basics of Search Engine Optimization, especially if you update a blog or authority website regularly.

Some people have asked me (and in this forum) how can building a list be a traffic generating technique?

Well, you certainly need to get SOME traffic so you can capture a visitor's e-mail address (or mobile phone # or mailing address, depending on your business model), but as you are building a prospect list you can market them other offers.

A big mistake I see people make is that when someone buys from them and they either don't add them to a buyer's list or they have a buyer's list, but they STOP marketing to them.

That is known as a back-end funnel and that's where a lot of the money can be made.

Something to ponder.

RoD

Not Really True.
There are tons of free traffic if you know how to get them.
However I agree that it takes time for individuals to figure out the best free traffic techniques but still one can get tons of free and targeted traffic.

Compelling content provides the best ROI you could possibly imagine. I started my latest website February 26th, haven't spent a single dollar on advertising or marketing and as a cool April present cracked the 1,500 daily visitor mark. It was a ton of marketing expertise but it all boiled down to the content.

Make Sure Your Site Looks Nice

By the end of March I was getting almost 500 visitors per day and started soliciting feedback from users. Overwhelmingly the feedback was that the content was great, the site was hideous. As a result I invested a lot of time and effort into a big site redesign. As a result I literally tripled web traffic overnight.

Actually Engage With People

I drop links to my site on forums and on social media but I try to exercise moderation and mix this up with a lot of actually engaging with people. Some of the best networking connections I have made have been as a result of taking the time to engage with a forum rather than look at it as a spam tool and I have even obtained several new clients as a result. Just my two cents, great thread.

Lots of great techniques here.
I like a method called clickbanking Noticed it weren't mentioned in this thread.. This is more for list building though.. Have to agree that list building is the best way for returning traffic.

So the way that it works is that you reach out to a marketer in your niche that you know have a bigger list than you.

Then tell that person you are going to work on sending, lets say 500 clicks to his offers over the next month, or two weeks or whatever you want.

when you have sent the clicks, you can contact him/her again and say that you want to withdraw your clicks now. Then you will recieve 500 clicks instantly, because all your partner does is send out one mailing to his/her list and boom, lots of leads!

It takes a fair amount of time of time, but it's a great way of getting for example 500 clicks to your site instantly when you're done. Remeber you can partner up with someone sending 50 leads if you have a smaller list, over the course of 10 days or so.

Also remember to be selective with the persons you partner up with.. You don't want to waste your effort and then get nothing back.. So it's kind of a risky game, but it worked for me when I tried it. Responsive traffic too.

Thanks,

Renè

This is honestly the best forum to be involved in. I have had my frustrations with my blogs and internet marketing. I am still coming back though.

My advice to you is to do better about being consistent in here than I have been. Come in here as often as possible and contribute.

I will be working toward the same thing in the future. Good Luck.

In my experience, paid traffic such as CPM and PPV have been working wonders.

For a short-term traffic play, I would engage in Forum posting and adswaps.
