So how do you get somebody to give you their E-mail address?

You bribe them!

Offer something in return. Something they desperately would like to have. All it takes is a free report of special interest, and a targeted prospect will gladly trade you their E-mail address for that report.

Trust me, this works, and it works well.

With just two very short sentences I get people to give me their addresses every single day! Then I mail to them over and over.

Many of these are people that don't know me, and have never even been to my web site. Yet they still happily hand over their E-mail address.

This is a very powerful strategy that really works well. Get all details here: http://www.homemadebooklets.com/The-Secret.htm

Remember, it's little things that bring you Internet success!

5. Trade Links

If you develop a strong content oriented site you can persuade thousands of other webmasters to link to you or to trade links with you. There are even a few consultants online who have developed linking campaigns and have achieved a million hits a month or more for their customers within 90 days by linking with right sites.

You can do this yourself. The key is to develop content people want to link to and then get out there and make contacts by visiting people's sites, sending out personalized emails to webmasters you have visited, and networking in discussion groups.

6. Participate in Leveraged Banner Exchanges

Regular banner exchanges don't work that well. Although they can produce a few extra free hits a month for your site, they never seem to give you kind of traffic building leverage you need to grow to hundreds of thousands of hits a month.

A new wave of banner exchanges is growing though at unprecedented rates. What they do that separates them apart is that they will give you a 5% to 20% credit of banner impressions of anyone's site that you refer. If you refer a site which gets a million hits a month, you would get 200,000 free impressions a month extra.

One of best is Bannerz4Free at http://www.bannerz4free.cjb.net, not only they are one of best banner exchanges but they are also giving away 1,000,000 impressions to one lucky member each month.

7. Start Your Own Mailing List

If you want to make money online, start your own mailing list. It is best way to keep contact with your prospects and your customers. It is also best way to build credibility you need to make sales to your targeted market.

A little less talked about advantage to having your own mailing list is that you can use it to trade ads with other ezines out there. If you trade ads with 10 other ezines out there, you could easily be saving yourself $100 - $500 in advertising expense every week!

8. Banner Ads on Individual Sites

When people think of banner ads they almost always think of major search engines or major sites online. Well, I have been advertising lately with banners, and I can tell you something.

Making money using banner ads on these high traffic high cost sites is extremely difficult and risky.

These sites will charge you $20 per 1,000 impressions to general audiences and $50 per 1,000 impressions to targeted markets.

By seeking out individual sites who get high traffic (50,000 hits to 1,000,000 hits a month), you can actually get rates of $1 - $10 per 1,000 impressions of your banner ads. By finding 10 - 20 of these sites, you can quickly build yourself an overwhelming river of traffic to your site for a much lower cost than major search engines.

9. Advertise on Goto.com

Goto has come up with a great advertising plan for businesses. You can actually go to http://www.goto.com and bid on traffic for your site. You pick keywords for your site and then place a bid of whatever price you are willing to pay for traffic from that keyword...generally you would bid .01 to .10 per keyword.

Then, Goto will only charge you for actual hits you receive from them. If you bid one penny for keyword and you receive 10 hits from it today, you only owe 10 cents for day. This low cost traffic building method cannot be beat anywhere.

The key to making it work for you is to come up with hundreds of possible keywords for your site and then bid low amounts such as a few cents on each. Then, check your stats continually and find out what kind of traffic you are getting.

10. Free Stuff

The KING of traffic is free stuff. If you want to get real traffic to your site, provide kind of free content and services that your market is hunting desperately for.

Provide free articles to other web sites. Provide free downloads. Give away free CGI programs. Provide hundreds of links to needed tools. Provide links to downloadable software. Give your visitors what they want and they will keep coming back and referring their friends.
