Do you know one of the biggest problems affiliate and marketers in general have when they are trying to make money online?



It is traffic....

Yes! It is that simple, one of the problems is, that if you have no traffic, you'll make 0 sales...

It is sad to say, but it is said that about 95% of affiliate marketers around the net are having problems to get traffic.

You could have the best and most beautiful site in the world, but if you lack to bring real targeted visitors to your site you will most probably fail...

But, do not fear, you don not have to be a Marketing Guru to succeed, I am just an ordinary guy, and my native language is not even english!

If I can do it, I am sure you can do it to.

So the question is, what can you do to start getting real targeted buying visitors to your site?

Well, to define things, I have to ask you:

Do you have some money to spend online or are you starting on a shoestring budget?

Why am I asking you this?

It is simple, depending of how much money you have to spend online you will have to make a decision between the paid and free traffic generation tactics or just plain simple...., use both paid and free tactics.

Let us first take a look at those 4 simple but very powerful tactics that will literally explode your traffic logs:

1. Buying visitors at Google Adwords.

If you have the money to spend, you can quickly open an Google Adwords account and start seeing profits today, for more information you can visit:

2. Ezines.

You can buy ad space in ezines and usually you will reach a target group in the thousand, the prices vary, you can try with the cheapest ad space they offer (usually bottom space ad), and if it bring good results go one step further and so on, and make a separate folder for those good spots.

Most of the time the ad that gets the best results are the solo ads.

3. Writing articles.

This is my favorite!

If you like to write, this is a good one, if not you can hire someone to write a really good article cheap at justarticles.com, I have used them and they always make a good job for the price you pay.

Next step, you should submit them to article directories and ezine publishers.

This task can be really hard to accomplish if you are doing it manually.

To get the best results, I recommend you using some kind of software that automate the process, like for example articlesubmitter or articleannouncer.

4. Exchanging links with other sites.

It is well known that getting links to your site helps you rank better in the search engines, but I would consider that a secondary effect.

I would focus on building and exchanging links with other sites on a regular basis.

Why?...

Because, when you exchange links with others you will begin to see visitors to your site.

People will find you link on other sites and visit your site and then finally and hopefully buy.

The good thing is that you will not depend on the search engines as your primary source of traffic.

Some recommendations:

As you see, the less expensive thing you can do is to start exchanging links.

The next less expensive way of promoting your site is to start writing articles and distribute them to article directories.

If you have some money to invest you could start

with Ezines and Google Adwords.

Happy Marketing!
