 Free and Easy Tips to Help Drive Traffic to Your WebsitePublished Date: 2008-09-04 15:31:20 WorkOnInternet.com
Another free tool is MySpace. MySpace is a large social network with over 180 million users! It is also known as viral marketing, or "buzz" marketing. Do not fill your profile with sales tactics, it turns people off, especially if they think they are being spammed and no one loves a spammer. Remember, you want to build a huge friends list in a short amount of time and you want to be interesting enough so that people will want to become your friend. As you fill out your profile you will want to create links to your website and companies. You will also want to add some video clips because it tends to hold peoples interest in your page. Use the MySpace search function to locate your target audience and send friend requests. Squidoo is a writing forum for topics you care about, they are called "lenses" you can write about anything that interests you. Anything at all. You can find groups of people who write about things you are interested in and so on and so forth; it's really quite fun once you get the hang of it. Once again, you want to have a variety of lenses on several topics that interest you not just lenses for your opportunity. And you want to check out lenses other people have written, like any other web 2.0 sites it is about building relationships and a network of friends and giving them something they will want to read and add as their favorites, and give you high rankings. By gaining friends through a vareity of topics and interests, you will start to be able to link up with others and they will actually present your opportunity for you. Stumble Upon is another great advertising forum, you write articles like in squiddoo and people give it a thumbs up or down, the stumble upon software actually knows what kind of content its readers like, so it will present random content to a reader and the reader will give it a thumbs up or down and the software will know what kind of content to present its reader. First thing you will want to do is Craft or Modify your article content, create a catchy title, add a picture, add graphics, and texturize your blog using Italics, Bold etc. Then you want to build a list of friends or invite friends from other sites. Next you will want to coordinate your submission to the right person, have that person send it along to other people and have people vote on it. You can also spend a few bucks submitting the article yourself and seeing what kind of feed back you get, I would spend maybe $20 to see if people really do like the content. The best thing to do though is to have others actually submit it for you and pass it along, that way it doesn't look like you are trying to promote yourself, rather other people are doing it for you. That concludes some of my tips on the popular social marketing sites that are out there and should help drive some traffic to your own site. I hope it has been useful and informative, and you enjoyed the tips.
