I have listed below some strategies you can use to generate targeted traffic to your web site or blog:1. Writing and submitting articles.One of the most popular cost-effective ways of generating targeted traffic to your site or blog is writing articles and submitting them to online article directories. Writing good, informative, and relevant articles in connection with your business or niche market is an excellent way to begin driving interested potential customers to you online business.2. Build an active customer list.Building a list of interested potential customers to your product or service is another way of ensuring that the online business system that you are using will get the life-blood that it requires to continue to prosper. The larger the list of individuals you have that are eager to purchase your product or service the more effective that list will be.Building a list can be accomplished by giving away something of value that your web site visitors will want to own in exchange for their name and/or email address. This offer can range from ebooks to software depending on what you are promoting. Make sure that the giveaway is relevant to your niche market. This is a sure way of building what I call “traffic on demand” because it is there whenever you need it.3. Using the search engines.The use of search engines is another very effective method to get traffic to your web site or blog. By submitting your SEO web site to the various search engines you can begin to build an online presence for your Internet business. It is critical to be sure that your web site has been optimized for the search engines to index your site in the best possible page rank and category.

Google Adwords-PPC.The methods that we have touched on up until now have all been free traffic solutions. Google Adwords-PPC (pay-per-click) is a paid solution and requires a little more of a learning curve than the other methods of driving traffic to your web site.This method is based on bidding a certain amount of money for a keyword or keyword phrase that a web searcher may type in to find your product. The more popular the keyword or keyword phrase the more it will cost. Once you have your keyword phrase and it has been indexed on Google in the form of an ad you are charged a pre-determined amount of money each time someone clicks on your ad.One of the advantages of Google Adwords-PPC is that the majority of people who click on your ad are looking to purchase the product or service that you are offering. This in turn usually leads to a higher sale volume.5. Participating in appropriate forums.A forum is a web site or place online where individuals with common interest go to get and exchange ideas about a particular topic, subject or niche.There are a multitude of online forums that are there for individuals interested in any niche market. You can generate high quality traffic to your web site or blog by joining and participating in the ones that pertain to your niche or business.By posting threads and comments in these forums you get access to the members of that forum as potential customers to your product or service. While most forums have strict rules and regulations for the forum members making business offers within the forum you are allowed to leave a signature and contact URL in your post or thread. This is an open door to your web site or blog where anyone in that forum can visit.Using the strategies above to drive targeted traffic to your web site or blog will also improve the chances that the online business system that you are using will work for you to it fullest potential to help your Internet business continue to grow and have success.
