Secrets for Free Website Traffic: The 4 Techniques that Really Work!

I used to get really frustrated because a majority of my website's income was going to pay for my PPC advertising. I was using PPC for a while because that is what all the gurus said that I was "supposed" to do. Now that I have almost zero in advertising costs, it's pretty hard not to make some really nice profits!

Here is one of the first techniques I ever implemented to get lots of free traffic: Video Marketing. I really like Video Marketing because you are able to duplicate yourself with little effort all across the web. This is because there are software programs available that allow me to distribute each video I create to over 40 different websites. The cool thing is, even when I create just a "mediocre" video I will still get a few views per day for many of those sites. Each video I create provides value to the viewer by sharing free information, and then at some time during the video I provide the viewer with a compelling offer to get more information for free. This brings these viewers to my website where I can provide them with more of what they were looking for.

Another technique I really enjoy using is Article Marketing. When you focus on providing the article directory sites with great quality articles, they will reward you by first: accepting your article into their site, second: sharing your article with other sites, third: accepting you as an author that really has something to offer. When you can create great articles and do your article marketing the right way, you can start to see a steady flow of free traffic to your websites. There will then be some days where you will get hoards of free traffic to your websites because one of your articles has been shared with one of the "high-profile" websites.

A third technique that can do great things for your website is Blog Marketing. By simply placing a blog on your website, you are filling your website with pages and pages of valuable content, and the great thing is, this content gets ranked by the search engines. I am sure that you have found yourself at times searching for a specific answer to a question on the web, and sure enough, it was on a blog where you found your answer. If you follow a few simple steps in your Blog Marketing, then your blog will get ranked high along with your website, which means more free traffic for you.

That last technique I will share with you today is something I call RSSEO. This of course stands for Really Simple Search Engine Optimization. You see, most of us aren't webmasters at all, but there are a few really simple SEO techniques that we can use that don't involve much of the technical mumbo-jumbo. One of the most effective simple techniques I use is providing Yahoo and Google with sitemaps. This makes it really easy for these search engines to index each one of your web pages, and if you have a blog, you are going to want each page on your blog indexed so that you get great exposure with each blog post.

Now, of course there are many other great techniques for getting free targeted traffic to your website, but these are some of the main ones that have been working for years. Even if you just try a couple of these techniques out, then I know you'll get great results. Also, you will keep more of your profits since you are likely tired of constantly paying large portions of your income to Google and other services for PPC!
