People looking for anything would use search engine invariably. It would be so good to submit your site to search engine and get listed in top. Sounds good but there are so many others doing same. You have got bleak chances unless your product is unique.

Other method is to pay search engine and get a priority listing. Still competition is high and so is price. You will get visitors and a dent in your pocket. But if you have a budget this can be tried. But again this is not so effective in long run.

There is way to circumvent this. Search engines index sites and rank sites according to links pointing to site and content of site. They crawl web and find links to your site. Higher number of links pointing higher your rank. Higher rank means better chances of getting traffic.

Links again! How do you get links?

There are many good methods. Write articles and let article sites publish them. Resource box containing your link will give you enough links to your site all over web. Join forums and contribute to discussion. You sig file will again leave good links.

People reading articles or visiting those forums will visit you. Search engines would notice them.

Publish a free e-book with cleverly incorporated links and let others use on their sites. You are automatically linked back.

Finally exchange links with willing relevant partners. But choose your partners carefully. Search engines are smart enough to differentiate between good and bad links. Bad links are actually detrimental.

Internet is numbers game altogether. Everything you do should build that number of links. That is secret around which every ‘magic secret’ revolves.

So it is time for work. Everything that needs to learn is always available in articles, free reports or forums. Just a bit of search on your part and every ‘How to…’ can be learnt.

Be patient. Like everything net business also needs time. There is nothing magical. As you grow and learn you will understand finesse.

Just don’t expect any more secrets. Because there won’t be. Except for hard work on your part.

Stop wasting your money. Remember! Nothing happens overnight
