How to getting Traffic to Your Website or Blog

Getting traffic to your site is key, you can’t make money online if nobody even sees your page right? Well this is a problem a lot of webmasters face when trying to make money online. Getting traffic can prove to be a task within itself, there are so many ways of approaching it where do you start? Well for free advertising there are several approaches, one being word of mouth, talk to friends and family but let’s be realistic that doesn’t make you money you want customers not just visitors.

Well the first place you can go is free classified sites, go and post an ad for free some sites will let the ad run for 30 days, some even 90 days. Search “top ten classified sites” on Google and post free ads on those sites as much as you can, those will you give you a lot of exposure but for maximum results just keep going to new classified sites and just keep posting ads as often as you can. Tedious as this can be in the long run it will pay off tremendously if you do this on a daily basis, most classifieds let you post up to 5 free ads or more, you sign up to 2 sites a day, posting 5 ads per site, each day in 30 day month. Now you’ve got 300 ads roaming the Internet all pointing to your site for free. This will make you a lot of money online with out having to spend a dime.

How to Write Good for Search Engine Marketing

Monday, February 25, 2008

If you do not recognize the obvious grammatical error in the title, you MUST read this article; I wrote it specifically for you!

If you only have five seconds to spare, just remember the three C’s of optimized copy: be concise, correct and credible.

In 2003, Kathy Kiely published an article in USA Today discussing the impact of bloggers on presidential campaigns. Despite the subject matter, Kathy’s points still apply today, “Many bloggers are not professional journalists. Few have editors. Most make no pretense of objectivity.” I believe many search engine and social media marketers fall into the same category and as a result our industry, clients, their customers and the search engine results suffer.

The Bottom Line

People either do not like or do not have the time to read poorly written content. Therefore, whether you are writing an optimized web page, linkbait, blog entry or press release, it is essential that you write with concise language, correct grammar and credibility. Besides increasing readership, you will make the search engines very happy.

Let me take a moment to state that my mother was an English teacher. Growing up under her watchful eye I rebelled by misusing commas and tenses. Despite being grammatically challenged I managed to become a competent writer, which I attribute to being opinionated and following these simple rules:

1. Be concise: answer what, where, and when early in the content. Well-written titles and opening lines that stick to the facts have a stronger response rate from both humans and search engines.


2. Be correct: use correct grammar and spelling. If there is only one thing I want you to remember from this article it is that you should read your content out loud, preferably from a printed document. I am a huge environmentalist, but the mistakes spell check does not catch are easily heard and seen when you remove yourself from the computer. As for grammar, try to use familiar words in short, declarative sentences.
