Traffic: Making Or Breaking Your Site

One thing that constantly bugs me about many of the products that get released is that they don't tell you how to bring traffic to your site. You get a large e-book that tells you how to build an amazing site but not one chapter on traffic generation

When I was starting out I spent lots of money on site building tools and keyword tools and nothing on learning how to generate traffic. I now know how stupid that was. The tools might have been the best in the world but without traffic the end results were worthless.

The best looking site in the world means nothing without human visitors. If you can't attract the website spiders and then organic traffic you will be left with a site of no value to you. Have a look at the forums where people buy and sell website and each thread will have 2 questions. How much does the site earn and how much traffic does it have. On a personal not i prefer traffic over income as I know I can turn traffic into income easier than generate new traffic.

Take time to develop your own traffic delivery system and you'll have one less thing to worry about. Take time to find out what works and what doesn't. I created a video for my members yesterday about how to get a site indexed and start generating traffic and I found something that got a new site into Google in less than 18 hours.

Using that method was completely new to me and although it impressed me it might have been a lucky one-off. I used it on another new domain this morning and found that it only took 3 hours before my site was referenced in Google. 3 Hours! Now that is very impressive.

I've read lots of books on traffic generation and not one of them has mentioned this service. This is not surprising as the reason for this is that the Internet is changing on an almost daily basis what worked great last month doesn't work as well this month. Take Squidoo for example, it used to be the best way to get a site indexed but not anymore.

The easiest way to find the services that work is by seeing what ranks well in Google. Personally I will focus on Internet Marketing terms as marketers tend to be ahead of the pack on most things related to site promotion. I'll then locate what services they are using to get links back to their sites and then test them on my new sites. If they work the get added to my spreadsheet and then used until something more effective comes along.

By planning your traffic generation using the tools you discover you can quickly start to dominate search engine listings. By careful manipulation of your linking strategies it is often possible to grab many of the top 10 listings.
