Link exchanges are great for getting your website ranked highly in search engines such as Google. Then when people search for your keywords they find your site. This takes a lot of time and work but is great for a huge amount of targeted traffic in end. 6) Ezines – Ezines are one of best sources of information on web. They can make a huge impact on your marketing success if used correctly. Most Ezines offer ad space that you can buy for fairly cheap. Some even accept ads for free. You can also write articles (explained above) and submit them to Ezines to get free exposure.

The Directory of Ezines (DOE) is well-known as premier resource for best Ezines. You can find DOE at http:/ inyurl.com/39do4

To help ensure you find quality Ezines to advertise in you should check to see how many subscribers they have. The more better but make sure their list is 100% opt-in because some will try and make themselves look more popular than they really are. Also, make sure there aren’t too many ads to compete with. Some Ezines will accept virtually unlimited ads. Your ad will probably never be seen in an Ezine that allows this. I really like DOE (link above) because they have already checked Ezines for quality to make it much easier on you. 7) Word-of-mouth - Well, this one’s easy. Tell everyone you know or meet about your business and tell them to tell everyone they know about it too.

Here is a great article about this topic: http://www.work-at-home-jobs-iowa.com/300rule.html 8) Fliers - Post fliers in places where a lot of people go. Supermarkets, sign poles, under windshield wipers in large parking lots (you might want to ask owner of lot before doing that), universities, anywhere else you can think of---you get picture. You can also just hand them out to people at large events. 9) Ads on high ranking sites – Similar to classifieds… there are many websites that offer space for people to place ads. You can usually get an ad for a very good price. Just search for websites on your topic and if they offer ad space then ask them about it. If they are in top 10 on search engines for keywords you type in then there is a good chance they get a lot of traffic. Your ad could be seen by thousands of people every month.

10) Classifieds – There are many classified ad directories on internet. How popular site is will usually determine how much you pay for an ad. Most places offer pretty fair prices. There are also plenty of places to post classified ads offline such as newspapers.

There are tons of classified sites so it’s very easy to get confused or overwhelmed when trying to figure out what ones to use. You should definitely do some research on site before you spend money to advertise there. Here are a few things to look for – Number of visitors to site (the more merrier), make sure your ad will stay visible without being pushed off page by other ads, and make sure site offers value to visitors, meaning it isn’t just full of ads and nothing else.

What NOT to do when promoting your business – Do not send out unsolicited (spam) emails to people. All that will do is get you in trouble and won’t produce very good results anyway. Don’t post to FFA (free for all) sites. All you will get back from them is a bunch of junk in your inbox so it’s not worth your time. Also, don’t use unethical business practices of any kind. If you are not sure about something then ask someone. Always use your better judgment.

Well, that’s all I have for now. There are many more marketing techniques that you can use so don’t assume that this is an all-inclusive list. The promotion methods above are just some of more commonly used ways to get traffic/customers for your business. I didn’t go into detail on any of techniques because this article would have turned out to be a book. If you need any more information or help with anything send me an email and I will answer your questions or direct you to someone that can.

Finally, please remember that any business online or offline takes hard work and time to build. Do not expect to be making a lot of money in a short amount of time. Put in effort and you will be greatly rewarded in long run.

(3) Traffic Programs

If you're using free traffic programs and NOT building a list with them, you're making a big mistake.

You can generate tons of leads purely from these traffic programs and generators found everywhere.

The secret's in creating an irresistible opt-in page promising more information to entice opt-ins. Once you start building this list, you've got to deliver on initial promise, while cultivating and building a good relationship with them. The reward will be perpetual lifetime profits.

Excellent examples of proven traffic programs include:

You can generate a big list fast if you combine above three methods together.

The next step would be to duplicate what you’ve done and spit out tons of targeted sub-lists to promote your different programs.

And yes….it is truly that simple.
