More and more people are on the internet now than ever before. Instead of using the trusty old yellow pages (remember the big fat book filled with business names and phone numbers?) people are now turning to the internet and Google to find products and services.
It isn't enough to just have a store with a great location anymore. Now you need to be on the web as well. But what do you do about generating traffic on line?
All the different tactics and programs can really be overwhelming. There is pay per click, banner ads, Google Ads just to start. But these can get costly and what is a small business owner to do?
The best method of generating a healthy volume of traffic to your website is by writing articles! Yep...articles. They won't cost you anything but your time and you are providing something your customers want anyway - information. You simply write on topics you know about and that are of interest to your customers. Then submit them to the various article publication sources on the web where other sites, who NEED content for their sites, newsletters, etc. will pick up your articles.
When these sites use your articles, they must include your author resource section along with the article. This area includes a link back to your website and there lies the key to your new found traffic. An instant pathway to the front door of your website office! The search engines love these inbound links and will index your site quicker because of them. So, you have begun to generate traffic to your website, added content in the process by placing the article you wrote on your site as well as submitting it to article publication sources and have marketed your site to potentially thousands of prospective customers and it did not cost you a dime.
If you prefer, you can subscribe to a service that will do all the submissions for you like ArticleMarketer.com . They will submit to hundreds of publication sources for you for a very small quarterly fee of around $49.
So, generating internet traffic doesn't need to be expensive, just effective!
Wishing you the best of success, always.
