How to drive Free Traffic

                                                                                         

This is a question that probably runs through every webmaster's brain cells each and every minute or maybe each and every second. However, there are people who understand that there is really a value in looking at a long term solution than a quick short solution. I am one of them who get it. Today I sat down and decided to put my thoughts into words for you.

What is a short term solution for driving traffic to your site?

Well a short term solution can be defined as a "solution that gets traffic to your site if and only when you keep spending numerous hours or pay others each and every day". In other words, the short term traffic stops after you stop spending valuable time or money.

There are numbers of ways to drive short term traffic to your site. Such ways are:

1. Pay someone like Google to advertise on their Google AdWords. You will be guaranteed to receive traffic to your site and if your sales pitch is good, you can even make money. However, you will be spending money for each and every single click.

2. You can buy bulk traffic from other sources such as NetKlick.com!. This will cost you much cheaper than the above example in terms of number of visitors per dollar spent. But it does not really means that all the visitors are looking for your product. So you will not convert all traffic into money but it can work if your product line is diverse.

3. You can sit around posting in forum posts and sending emails out to your lists to bring in traffic. Webmasters spend numerous hours sending out emails or posting in forums to bring people to their website.

As you can see, all these methods will work well in short term however once you get yourself occupied with something else or when your money runs out, you will not be bringing in any traffic.

Why should you pay money when you can secure a long term free traffic to your site?

What is a long term solution for driving traffic to your site?

A long term solution means that you spend some time now to sustain a steady flow of traffic for the future. It should only increase as days go by and not decrease. Well there are many ways for you to make sure that your long term goals are safe. I am only going to go through few of them today.

1. You probably heard the term "Blog", which really means weblog. It is a way for people to share their information directly with others. A daily journal is what I would call it. Go to sites like Blogger.com and create a blog for your self. Start writing daily and in that blog you can insert links to your other sites. If you have your own sites, you can also create a blog there. Search engines love fresh contents and they will find your blog.
