How To Work With Free Traffic Generators

Free traffic?!! Wow! That just sends goose bumps down my spine!

We are all looking for free web site traffic. Search engines are
the best sources but you must constantly optimize for top
indexing. There are however other sources of free traffic. Making
good use of them takes a bit of patience and care.

One of growing popularity, traffic exchanges supply visitors to
your site in exchange for traffic which you deliver to the
network of sites. These systems allow you to accumulate credits
which are then converted in to a predetermined number of viewings
of your site either in the form of a link or an actual web page.
The following lists some of the most popular systems.

(1) Traffic Exchanges - TrafficSwarm is owned by SixDegrees
Media in Sausalito, California, and driven in large part by CEO
Wayne Van Dyck, an ex-Wall Street Investment Banker. It is by
and far the most well-run and beneficial traffic exchange that I
have found to date. You can check it out at
http://www.trafficswarm.com/cgi-bin/swarm.cgi?224700 .

Traffic exchanges work by crediting per the amount of traffic
you bring to other sites on the network. This can be through
your own surfing, referral traffic, or even by purchasing site
visits. Most exchanges offer free and paid memberships, with
paid members of course obtaining more perks and potentially more
targeted traffic.

(2) Banner Exchanges - Banners are known not to have the largest
click through rates but can still be of benefit. They typically
make use of a 2:1 or lower visibility ratio, meaning that for
every 2 times someone views a banner on your site, 1 view of
your banner will be shown elsewhere on the network.

The most important aspect is to make your banner highly targeted
and not general. Moreover, make sure the exchange program will
target your banner topic to sites that attract visitors within
your target market. Otherwise your efforts will not prove
fruitful. You may have traffic but not from people interested in
what you offer. Banners GoMLM is one of the more popular
exchanges. I personally use http://www.superbannertraffic.com
and have had modest success.

(3) Reciprocal Linking - Trading links with other web masters
can generate traffic from both the individual site and through
better search engine ranking. The later takes time and cannot be
rushed. The SE has to crawl a site in order to locate the
reciprocal link before the index is updated.

Above all else, you must be diligent, patient, and track what
methods work. You must put in the time and care to learn about
and tailor them to your particular purpose. If you prefer to dish
out the bucks for traffic there are numerous fee-based systems.
Pay-per-click is the most popular and can deliver highly targeted
visits to your site. Although, whether you benefit or not from
the visit, your money is already spent.

3 Under-Used Traffic Generators!

3 Under-Used Traffic Generators!

by Larry Dotson

1) Viral Communities

Create your own chat room. Allow other related web sites that don't have a chat room to link to yours. They'll get use of a free chat room and you'll draw extra traffic to your site. Just publish your ad right above the chat room area. Your ad will draw extra exposure from all the other web sites sending traffic to it.

2) Linking Groups

Create your own web ring. You will gain highly targeted traffic to your web site and others will link to your site because they'll want to join the ring. For example, if you were selling products to net marketers, you would want to start an online marketing web ring. You would then draw your target audience.

3) Membership Traffic

Create your own online club or association. Tell your visitors what's included in the membership and what it costs to join. Offer them a free membership if, in exchange, they link to your web site. Just think, you will either make money or get some no-cost advertising. ---- 10,000 Sales Letter Words, Phrases & Templates!

Adsense The Powerful Passive Income Generator

Webmasters have a revolutionary new method of collecting income from their websites.
Whereas in the past advertising revenue was reserved for those sites with large a coming and going of visitors, now even teenagers are making a quick buck with their online hobby blogs. People place adsense on their online family photo albums, their blogs and their business sites. The minimum you would get, even with a small amount of traffic, is for adsense to pay for your hosting costs.

Adsense revolutionized the world of paid advertising; banner advertising is based on the number of visitors you attract to your site, so the number of banner impressions dictate the revenue you receive. Google Adsense is quite different; it is the number of visitors that actually click on the advertising that determine how much you earn.

There is also a great disparity between payouts; because advertisers bid up the price for certain keywords, some ads pay more than others. As such, a site with few visitors but expensive keywords in their google ads can potentially still pull in a hefty payout.

Google really has taken the web by storm; attracted to passive income, more and more people are seriously capitalizing on their Google adsense advertising. Some of the highest earners manage to attract enough visitors to make a four figure monthly income, just from using adsense alone! This is not one of those get-rich-quick schemes and Googles adsense success is largely thanks to the fact that Google already enjoyed a fantastic reputation before introducing the program. They are a publicly traded company with physical headquarters. This, and the fact that anyone can apply to use adsense for free, has caused millions of people to sign up. For google it was a smart move, because now they extend their presence to countless websites and generate millions of dollars in advertising revenue. People were never reluctant to sign up, because the program is free. Google benefits by more people using adsense, so offering it for free was the best thing they could do.

One of the driving forced behind the program are its relevance to each and every page on a website; the program picks up keywords appearing in the website copy and automatically displays relevant ads. This increases the chances of people clicking through, and the webmaster collecting more revenue.

People are leveraging their income by operating several websites and attempting to attract as many targeted visitors as possible; in many instances we can observe that people work hard at a site, then once it is established they can largely leave it alone, yet still collect significant checks.

A major concern for entrepreneurs was the danger of a competitors ads showing up on their site; thanks to the adsense feature where it only displays relevant advertising. However this problem was solved by offering webmasters the option of filtering out unwanted ads. They can submit the URL of the competing site in their account, and any ads from the website will be blocked.

Google recently came out with a new feature: small targeted keywords based on the sites content are displayed; then as people click on those, a page opens showing a variety of pay-per-click ads based on that keyword. This gives webmasters the chance of displaying more advertising in less space.

Adsense also adds creditability to your website; the more focused the content, the better the ads will be and this encourages people to built high quality websites. These make the net a better place and generally provide a free service; site owners can afford to share their expertise or passions because they can receive indirect revenues. The visitor does not pay for the information; instead the advertisers do, making the websites existence possible in the first place.

It is no surprise Google adsense is the most widely used form of advertising; they have created a program that is beneficial to both advertisers and users with their no click no pay mechanism, or more popularly called pay-per-click. Advertisers do not pay for ads that are not drawing visitors, and website owners are paid more for each click than they would if the system were based on the number of people viewing the ads, instead of clicking on them.

All in all Google adsense has developed itself into a powerful tool, used by large corporations and the kid next door. They have truly revolutionized how the web thinks about advertising and made the process more profitable for site owners, while less costly for advertisers.

Five ways to quadruple a websites revenue.Steve CashCopyright 2005 Private Mail Services

Many website owners all too often give up on their website, even before their site has had time to shine. It can take months, or even years to reach the optimum for a business so why not expect the same out of a website? It is hard to find a business that finds the desired revenue within the first year. So why should a website be as popular as it should be within the first few months or years?

First of all just like any successful business you must believe that you'll
succeed and never give-up. To be successful with a website you must have the same mentality, never give up and always put time and effort in. Giving up is the single major problem, if you give up on your website too early it will fail.

I have built many website over the years and found that what I have set out for you in this article will work, and keep on working.

Secondly, you need to increase your traffic, or hits to the website. I advise you to read my previous article Six Techniques To Triple Your Website Hits. This article illustrates six functional ways you can increase the traffic to your website.

Thirdly on the list, make sure you have branded your site well. People want to remember you and believe your site is quality. So build a clean and functional website that is appealing to your potential customers. The more professional your site is, the more you will impress the visitors.

Fourthly, one of the most important parts to a website: Quality content. You must have quality content. Always make sure you are original and unique. By having quality and informative information on my websites has benefited me to no extent. I found one of my website advertised on eBay. Not only was my site featured in an auction, but they were referring to my website and the products I sold. This alone gave my website over 40-50 extra hits from the eBay website alone, per day.

Not only did I find my website in eBay, but I found it in many other websites. I took a look at my link popularity and found my link popularity had risen from 60 to 300 within six months. These links were from quality websites and all were talking about my website as an example. No wonder my websites visitor count was dramatically increasing!

Fifth. Now that you have a quality and possibly a very well established website, you need to advertise. Advertising can be very expensive, and often not rewarding. So why not allow people to make money reselling your product or service?
I have found that every successful website I have setup, has an affiliate programme. Not only does an affiliate programme allow you to receive more new customers but it also increases your link popularity. As you all know, increasing your link popularity is something we are all trying to do.

I have found that affiliate programmes are the most important part to any website that sells a product or service. There is no other way to beat the free link popularity and the added bonus of extra sales you would not have had earlier. I cannot guarantee that you will quadruple your revenue, but the above information given will ensure that your website has a positive future and will prosper into a successful website. I have used every single example in the implementation of my current websites, and has worked for me. There is no time limit to how long it will take, although I have found a six month old website can quadruple its revenue within six months!

Traffic Generator Program Review: Instant

Mohamad Zaki HusseinThe first time I found this traffic generator program, I was very skeptical. I thought it must be the same as some of the other "junky" traffic generator programs out there. But what made me curious at that time was that one of the names associated with InstantBuzz was Mark Joyner. Well, some people may not like him, but it doesn't change the fact that he is one of the legends of internet marketing.

Mark alone didn't eliminate my skepticism. I've used many traffic generator programs and the only thing that I've found was that they all require some kind of tedious work, or initial traffic to generate traffic, and the results are poor. That's why I'm so skeptical at those generators on the net.

However, the name "Mark Joyner" successfully triggered my curiosity and so I joined this program.

After I joined InstantBuzz, I asked my upline, Javier Salces from Opt-InLeads.com, about his result with this program. And his email really changed my mind. In only two weeks, he earned 30 new subscribers, 15 new members to his viral list builder and $134 from two direct sales. While this may have happened because he has many referrals, his answer gave me a picture of the potentials of this program.

OK, so what is InstantBuzz and how does it work?

InstantBuzz is a viral traffic generation program and it has three advertising options, namely the bar ads, the mailspace ads and the hyperspace ads. Each of them uses three different "internet real estates," i.e. browsers, emails, and web pages, and work just like any ad exchange, where in return for showing other members' ads, you will get credits to show your ads. They're also viral in the sense that you'll also earn credits when your downlines show other members' ads.

The bar ads is a text link ad that appears in InstantBuzz toolbar. You're required to download and install the toolbar when you first join InstantBuzz. The toolbar looks similar to Google or Alexa toolbar and at the time I wrote this review, it only works on Internet Explorer.

From the three advertising options in InstantBuzz, I found the bar ads as the best feature of InstantBuzz, because it overcomes the shortcomings of other types of ad exchanges. To know why, I'll just make some comparisons here...

In hit exchanges, to generate traffic you need to do the tedious work of clicking and the traffic is of poor quality, because users are forced or persuaded to see other users' sites.

In InstantBuzz bar ads, you still need to surf to generate traffic, but it is different from surfing in traffic exchanges. You only need to surf as you normally would, e.g. to Google, to your favorite websites and forums, etc., and every time your browser reloaded, you will earn credits which will be used to show your ads. And the traffic might be better in quality than traffic exchanges, because members aren't forced or persuaded to click on your ads. They click on your ads voluntarily.

In banner exchanges, text ad exchanges or any kind of pop up exchanges (pop under, pop exit, fly-in ads, etc.), you don't need to do that tedious work of clicking like in traffic exchanges. But you do need to have traffic first to generate the ad impressions.

In InstantBuzz bar ads, you don't need to have initial traffic to generate the ad impressions. As I've mentioned above, you only need to do your usual daily surfing.

Now, what about the other advertising options in InstantBuzz?

The mailspace ads is a text ad that appears on your outgoing emails. You're only allowed to use this feature on personal one-to-one emails and it only works on a "client-side" email application such as Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora, etc. When you activate this feature, the mailspace ads will be automatically displayed on every email that you send via your email client.

The concept is actually great, because it uses one of the underutilized "internet real estates," i.e. your personal emails, as a vehicle for a viral ad exchange. But since the ads appear at the top of your outgoing emails, they're quite obstructive. However, the new owner of InstantBuzz, Mike Filsaime, said that the mailspace ads will be redesigned and will appear at the bottom of your outgoing emails.

As for the hyperspace ads, it's only a closeable pop up that appears in the upper right corner of your web pages. There is nothing new and unique about it. In fact, it is quite ugly and can clutter your web pages.

At the time I wrote this review, there are no ad categories in InstantBuzz. You can't opt to receive ads or target your ads to specific categories. This mean that while the clicks on your ads might be targeted, the ad impressions themselves are untargeted.

However, since the bar ads is a "peer-to-peer" ad exchange and all members of InstantBuzz are marketers, you can get targeted audiences if you promote marketing products or services or business opportunities. But this only applies to the bar ads. For the mailspace ads and hyperspace ads, it is impossible to predict the types of audiences that will receive and read your ads.

Also, InstantBuzz doesn't provide its members with any affiliate url. You can only recruit referrals to InstantBuzz by using an invitation or by using a link in the mailspace ads or hyperspace ads. This limitation might make you difficult to promote and recruit referrals to InstantBuzz. However, this could be overcome by a little creativity.
