[1] Use Search Engine Traffic To Your Advantage

A first page listing on the major search engines will send floods of free, targeted traffic to your web site. To see how this is accomplished, read on.

[2] Increase Your Link Popularity

In order to increase your search engine rankings you need to have a certain amount of traffic coming to your site. Exchanging links with other websites can do this for you. Exchanging links in this way can improve your popularity and by using targeted keywords in your links you will also boost your website's search engine position.

Boosting your website's link popularity can be accomplished by exchanging links with other sites that are closely related to your market, but not in direct competition. To increase the likelihood of getting your link posted on other sites, you'll need to offer a link exchange. You'll find it's helps if you post a link on your site first before you request a reciprocal link.

[3] Write and Submit Articles

Write keyword targeted articles that your target audience can relate to. Be seen as the expert in your field by writing and submitting articles. Posting your articles on other sites, ezines and newsletters will boost your link popularity.

[4] Build Joint Ventures

Building joint venture partnerships is an ideal way to explode your sales. A joint venture partnership can simply be two or more business owners coming together to help promote each other's product or service. You can ask your JV partner to promote your product to his list while in return you promote his product to your list, this way you both get instant access to a totally new, but closely related, customer base.

[5] Attract Affiliate Marketers

One great way to multiply your promotional efforts is to get others to do it for you. You can offer a reward to affiliate marketers for driving buyers to you site. Offering affiliate commissions to drive paying traffic to your site is a win-win situation. Offer your visitors, subscribers and existing customers the opportunity to earn some cash by referring others to your website.

[6] Building A Mailing List

Possibly the greatest asset any marketer could have is his own mailing list. Rarely will visitors buy from your site or a partner site that you're promoting on their first visit. Without capturing your visitor's name and email address all your time and effort getting them to your site could be wasted. Building an opt-in list of subscribers allows you to send reminders, promotions and offers without incurring any further costs.

[7] Use Forums

Posting on forums can get you hundreds of backlinks and visitors if done correctly. Forums are a great place to find lots of potential visitor/customers in your target market. You'll find numerous forums that cater for your market by doing a quick search in your favourite search engine. Most forums will allow you to include a link to your site in the bottom of each post you make.

To make it as a successful marketer or super affiliate, by driving targeted traffic to your website, you need to apply as many methods as possible. While striving for search engine traffic is clearly essential, you need to plan and apply other tactics as well. It's best to combine the above methods for maximum-targeted traffic, plus you'll be protecting your traffic from falling off should one tactic fail to perform as well as you expect.
