The value of targeted web site traffic can never be equal to that of a merely free traffic.
Visitors that are easily directed to certain web sites, even for free,
if totally clueless as to what the website is all about, are likely
going to exit your web pages just as fast as how they have landed on
them. You may even find yourself falling from the search engine ranks if
this continues to happen, not to mention being banned and the like.
But yes, the web is such an avenue for great opportunities that even free targeted traffic can possibly be obtained. But that does not come without efforts from your end. Here are some tips to building free targeted traffic.
Blogs. If you have a passion for writing and do not mind sharing your
ideas on the web, this should not be very hard for you. Blogs are among
the most effective ways to get "really” targeted traffic.
The freedom to express your message via compelling articles gives you
the chance to capture readers’ attention through your writing skill
coupled with some interesting images that are sure to spice up
interests. When writing blogs, you have the option to directly pitch
your website to your readers (seldom done) or do it in subtle, less
obvious ways.
You may post ads on your blog, insert links on some key phrases all of which will lead targeted traffic to your site when clicked. There are numerous blog sites on the web that you can tap all for free.
Forum Participation’s. This is also another way of getting targeted
traffic at no cost. Simply visit forums that discuss topics related to
the nature of your website. Participate either by posting your own
questions or by answering existing forum inquiries. There may be
instances when you can directly refer your website as part of your
answers, or you may need to employ tactics to insert it as part of your
main answers.
Usually, and this is the safest way to showcase your site for the
possibility of getting free targeted traffic, include your web site’s
domain name on your signature block. Don’t be satisfied by just putting
your name at the end of your answer. Insert your domain names and URLs
so that the readers (who are interested with the forum topic, which is
related to the nature of your website) have the option of clicking them
and hence becoming a part of your free targeted traffic.
Link Exchange. You are also free to browse the web for link exchange
and invite web sites with similar or related industries as yours. Make
sure to provide clear link details (an interesting title, clear
description, and accurate URL) to draw targeted traffic from websites
which visitors may also be highly interested on your web site content.
Anyone who visits a web site and cares to navigate through its pages, so
that he reaches its resources or links page and clicks on your
displayed link’s is a very promising portion of your targeted web site
traffic.
