If you're feeling a bit of confusion and frustration about how to get visitors to your website and generate more sales, I know exactly how you feel. I felt same way until I stopped listening to every "big time" marketer that came along with latest traffic generating trick.

You've got dozens of gurus vying for your attention and every one of them has solution to all of your problems. Right? The proliferation of messages that promise a traffic explosion using new techniques can become overwhelming.

Time out.

Take a deep breath.

Sit back in your chair.

Relax.

Now, if you will focus your energy on a very short list of traffic generation strategies that actually DO work, and commit to continually improving your skills in these few areas, you will be amazed at what you can achieve... WILL achieve.

In part 1 of this article series, we discussed fact that...

There are only 3 ways to get traffic to your website: 1) Buy it. 2) Borrow it. 3) Steal it.

Since #3 is not an option we're going to consider, that leaves us with "buy it" and "borrow it".

We also talked about "Holy Grail" of web traffic. What is it? FREE TRAFFIC! I want it. You want it. Every disillusioned internet marketer wants it.

Here's truth...

It's a myth.

It doesn't exist.

There is no such thing as free website traffic.

We'll resume our discussion where we left off...

Ezine advertising.

I'll spare you all of details regarding conversion ratios, etc. since we've already covered that in part 1 of this series.

There are many ways to make a living. Some people work many long hours a week slaving in a hot factory. Some people go to work for long days in a cubicle, meeting someone else's quota and achieving someone else's goals. Some people have decided these ideas of work do not work for them. These people have realized freedom and financial gains to be made in Internet businesses. There are many types of Internet businesses, but one stands above rest as easy and efficient. This business is affiliate marketing, and anyone can be a success.

Affiliate marketing is a simple principle. You provide a link to your Affiliate program owner on your website. Many major websites offer affiliate programs, including Ebay. These companies will, in turn, provide you with very effective and creative tools to better your web site and keep track of your earnings. This software, expensive when purchased alone, is free to affiliate participants. You do not pay for programs that will make your website sharper and more inviting. On contrary, you get paid.
