rohan,

tell me also how to find the sites which will accept links and linkexchage? do u have any short cut to search?

We're all trying to sell something. To do this we have to get people to our sites and more importantly...keep them there. Here are some tips to help get traffic:

Track all sources of traffic generation

Track where all traffic comes from and at what cost. It is crucial to know exactly how many sales, newsletter sign-ups, or other leads your particular marketing campaign is generating. This enables you to work smarter and not harder. By tracking all traffic to your site you can make twice as much while working fifty percent less. Get a good stats generator!

Content is King

On the internet, people are searching for one thing....... Content! Load your website with as much content as possible. Then, continuously add content. Search engines love information and they will love your site if you've got lots of it. There's plenty of free content for the taking on the internet so search for it. You can load up your site with articles from article directories like ezinearticles.com. Be aware also that spiders pick up what is in your side boxes so these are a valuable piece of real estate and perfect for testimonials and other snippets of information you'd like to get out on the Web.

Affiliate Programs

An affiliate program is critical to maximum traffic and sales. Lots of internet marketers don't take advantage of this powerful traffic-generating technique. An affiliate program allows you to have your own personal salesman spread all over the web. The best part about it is that there is absolutely no risk involved but tons of traffic and sales to gain. Your website simply cannot grow to its full potential without an effective affiliate program.

Take advantage of your virtual real estate

Take advantage of the different parts of your website. Don't let any of your web pages go to waste. You can do this by adding a link to another one of your web sites or pages on your thank-you or sales confirmation pages. If you have articles on your site, place links to related articles on the bottom of the page. The longer you keep a visitor at your web site, the more valuable they become.

It is very important to funnel traffic from within the multiple sites you may have.

Continually seek out other web sites to link to you. Now, we're not just talking about any kind of link here, but powerful, traffic-generating links from respected sites.

Online group participation can produce a no-cost stream of traffic and sales

Get involved in email discussion lists, online groups and forums that are related to your target market. Becoming involved in discussions makes you very credible. Traffic from forums can produce a much higher sales conversion rate.

This method can produce quite a bit of traffic for you just by helping others out. Not to mention, you'll learn a lot along the way.

* Spelling is important so make sure that you've spelled things correctly. If you're selling 'shirts', don't spell it 'shiets'. Be careful.

1. GET AN EASY TO REMEMBER DOMAIN NAME

Before you reserve that really cool domain name, practice saying the name and your proposed email addresses out loud as though you were telling it to someone over the phone. Is it easy to say? Is it easy to remember? Will you have to spell it each time you say the name?

2. PUBLISH AN EZINE

Capture the email addresses of your visitors by offering a free e-zine. A FREE Internet newsletter or e-zine lets you keep in touch with your customers and prospects on a regular basis. Educate your customers with how-to articles in your newsletters. Offer valuable and relevant information to your readers.

3. WRITE ARTICLES

With over 400,000 E-zines being published, you can be sure that some of those publishers sometimes find themselves in a pinch for content for their E-zine. Write articles and submit them for publication in other newsletters. Each time an article is published, you will gain credibility, visibility, and will establish yourself as an expert in your field.

4. SWAP LINKS

Develop reciprocal links to similar sites. Build a network of contacts, clients, vendors and related, noncompetitive businesses. Create your own award. Announce your award and the guidelines needed to win. Get links to all of the sites winning your award. Encourage others to link to you through special link-to-us-to-win contests.

5. SIGNATURE FILE

A signature file is a block of text that can appended to the end of each email message sent by your email software. It is the Internet version of the business card. Join mailing lists and participate in discussion groups pertinent to your services or products. Always include a relevant signature file.

6. GIVE ADVICE

Offer an advice column at your site. Free advice is one of the most popular freebies on the Internet and it provides you with the opportunity to show your competence in your field of expertise. As a supplement to your advice column, create an email training class to enhance your reputation as an expert. Set up your email class on follow-up autoresponders. Enhance your relationship with potential customers through the continued contact established during class lessons.

7. PROVIDE A FREE SERVICE

One of the best ways to keep your visitors coming back is to offer a free service. When deciding upon a free service, consider one that only requires you to install a program and that keeps working for you. A good place to start is the referral service script available from LetEmKnow

8. OFFER AN AFFILIATE PROGRAM

Partner with other sites by offering a revenue sharing relationship for sales or leads from your partners. Affiliate programs are a win-win situation. You can quickly and easily develop a sales force on the Internet, and your affiliates have instant products or services to sell on their Websites, thereby adding another revenue stream to their businesses.

9. DEVELOP LOYALTY PROGRAMS

Develop customer loyalty by creating an online club for buyers, a referral network or some other type of loyalty program. Offer your loyalty customers a free gift or discount coupon in exchange for completing an enrollment form. You get to know who your customers are and can fine tune your marketing efforts.

10. WEAR AN ADVERTISEMENT

Put your Website info on a T-shirt or hat and then wear your advertisements - everywhere. Have your kids wear them to school. Put your email and web address on bumper stickers or ID plates on your car. Don't be surprised when people come up to talk to you at the grocery store.

You simply have to see that your website contains quality content & submit your website on quality sites with great PR and you also have to do Social Book Marking of your website to grab the traffic for your website.

Hi...,

You can start with forums, web directories, article directories, social sites, etc. Then put up a blog, and put fresh content as much as you can, blog is a good means of marketing as each posts are indexed immediately as soon as they are published, just make sure you configure ping servers to your blog properly. Definitely you can get good traffic.. I am sure Its my experience....

Good luck..

Use your Twitter and Facebook accounts.

Social networks are also a way to get traffic for free. If you are popular on networks, such as Twitter or Facebook, the traffic you get from there can easily surpass the traffic from Google and the other search engines. It is true that building a large network of targeted followers on Twitter and supporters on Facebook takes a lot of time and effort but generally the result is worth.

Get links with other sites in your niche.

Another way to get traffic for free is from other sites in your niche. Getting links with other sites in your niche is also good for SEO, especially if you manage to get links without the famous nofollow attribute. But even if the links are nofollow (i.e. they are useless for SEO), they still help to get traffic to your site. If you manage to put your link in a visible place on a site with high volumes of traffic, you can get thousands of hits from this link alone. If you need list of sites within your niche where you could get backlinks from, check the Backlink Builder tool. However, be careful if you exchange links because linking to bad neighbors can do you a lot of harm.

Use any chance to promote your site for free.

Free promotion is always welcome, so don't neglect it. There are many ways to promote your site for free and some of the most popular ones include free classified ads, submissions to directories, inclusion in various listings, etc. It is true that not all free ways to promote your site work well but if you select the right places to promote your site for free, this can also result in tons of traffic.

Adding traffic to your site... one good suggestion is to find SEM experts (Search Engine Marketing)

If you will do this yourself, the simplest thing you can do are: article submission, social bookmarking... these two are great start to market your product...

I completely agree with dannsalik, keeping in mind that it is an ongoing process that can not work a month at those points and then forget about them, we must maintain it and invest time and resources to be truly effective

Good advice, I think number one is the best, you need to have a good thing in the first place, build it and they will come, in mortar and brick age people always wondered where to build it, here or there, in the end people came to the place they thought had the best deal, service, price, even if it was located far away from their daily bath.
