6 Easy Ways to Drive Paying Customers to Your Site
I’d like to share my top 6 traffic generation tips. If you’re
not using any of these strategies the time to get started
is today!
Traffic Tip #1: Give away free content
This is one of the best free traffic strategies out there.
Simply write a series of short articles that are packed
with useful information and tips, then submit them to online
article directories and other free content sites.
Not only will you get some great inbound links pointing
to your site, which will help you with the search engines
other people can republish your articles on their own sites,
which will help spread the word about your business and build
your credibility as an industry expert!
Here are some article directories you should check out:

Traffic Tip #2: Register your site with the ‘Net’s top directories
Not only will you get more visitors from these sites you’ll
also get great inbound links that will boost your ranking
with the search engines.
And that’ll send even MORE visitors your way!
Here are some directories you can start with:
The Yahoo Directory http://directory.yahoo.com
Traffic Tip #3: Get links from as many relevant websites as possible
By "relevant," I mean sites that have content that appeals
to your customers and relates to your business or product
in some way.
For example, if you sell vintage hot rod accessories, you’d
want to get links from sites that appeal to antique car and
hot rod fanatics.
Not only will these links help you with the search engine,
they’ll also put your site in front of a greater number of
targeted visitors.
Quality traffic: it’s the "Holy Grail" of online marketing.
After all, there’s not much point in having a website if your
potential customers aren’t able to find it!
Traffic Tip #4: Issue press releases about your business
Online press releases are a great way to announce a new product
or report on exciting developments in your industry. And,
like the strategies listed above, they will help you get
quality inbound links as well as new streams of direct traffic
to your site.
Some good press release sites to check out are:

Traffic Tip #5: Advertise your services on free online
classified sites
These sites are great because they’ll bring visitors who are
already in the "buying mood." Plus, they’ll give you even
MORE of those all-important inbound links!
Here are a few good classified ad sites to start with:
http://www.craigslist.org
Traffic Tip #6: Get active on social sites that focus on your market
Discover the blogs, forums, and social network sites that are
popular with your customers — and then get active on them!
By becoming a vocal participant on social sites, you can
establish yourself as an industry expert and build your
credibility as you spread the word about your business. It’s
a great way to build strong relationships and turn potential
customers into people who will buy from you again and again.
To find blogs that appeal to your target market, try running
a search on your top keywords (one at a time) at Google Blog
Search (http://blogsearch.google.com) or Technorati.com (http://www.technorati.com).
To find a forum that appeals to your target market, do a search
for your top keywords and add the word "forum." You can also
check out the following forum directories:

Just remember, driving traffic to your site is an ongoing
process. You’ll need to constantly test the effectiveness
of the strategies you use, in order to figure out which one
works best for you.
Happy "trafficking!"
