There are several internet marketing strategies you can use if you are looking to increase traffic to your website. Knowing which one works best for you is crucial and through trial and error, you can see which one works and brings in more traffic.

Clickbank

Putting a product for sale on clickbank can help bring traffic to your website as people are looking for something to buy, they will come to your website and have a look at what you have to offer.

Search Engines

Submitting your site to search engines is the best long term way to get sustained traffic to your website. As your site climbs higher and higher up the rankings you will start brining in more and more visitors.

Viral Marketing

Putting a ‘share this’ or ‘email this article’ button at the bottom of your articles and posts encourages people to share the story with friends if they like it. If your article is good enough, it can spread a mass viral marketing frenzy.

Article/ Bum Marketing

Writing articles, or hiring someone to write articles and then submitting these articles to article directories is a good way of getting traffic. The article directories allow you to put a link to your website at the bottom of the article and if people like what you write, they may pay you a visit.

Press Releases

A press release is having a subject worth announcing and submitting it to press release companies who post it for free. These press release are then picked up by Google and Yahoo and other search engines. However, the press release will only be accepted if it is newsworthy.

Affiliate Marketing

Setting up an affiliate marketing program is a good way of generating traffic to your website. Sell a cheap, useful product and give 90% – 100% comission to your affiliates. They will then start driving traffic like crazy to your site because they get such a high comission for a product that people are likely to buy.

JV

If you team up with a company that sells similar products, you can swap links and promote each others’ business as well. This will allow you to get more website traffic from their site to yours.
