Website Promotion Tips
Although it would be nice to simply put up a new website and instantly get visitors, unfortunately it doesn't work like that (well not usually anyway).
To have a successful website, you need targeted traffic. That means that the traffic needs to WANT to be there and they need to be interested in what you are selling or promoting.
Internet marketing involves a number of different ways of generating traffic to your site through website promotion techniques.
Some of these include:
Email Marketing
Online Advertising
Article Marketing
Email Marketing
Email marketing involves gathering a list of prospects and emailing them on a regular basis. Usually you will place an optin form on your website and people can sign up through there. You should send informative emails on a regular basis and occasionally send out an offer containing your affiliate link. This is a great way to build a long term customer base. It will also bring people back to your site as you can link to your site from your email newsletter.
Online Advertising
You might choose to advertise in ezines or on other websites. This is a fantastic way to get traffic to your site particularly when you are advertising on popular websites. Although it will cost you a monthly fee to place a banner or text link on a popular website, in most cases it is worthwhile.
Article Marketing
Article marketing involves writing regular articles about your website topic and submitting them to article directories such as ezinearticles.com and isnare.com
These directories are visited by thousands of web publishers and these publishers are able to use your articles on their sites whilst keeping your website link at the end of the article. Many people believe that this is the single best way to generate traffic and backlinks to your website.
By combining all of the above methods into your website promotion strategy you are sure to see your website traffic increase.
