Free Website Traffic - 4 Good Sources.
Free traffic to your website - everybody wants it - everybody thinks they would do better financially if they could get more traffic. Here are 4 very simple ways to get good, targetted traffic to your site:
Traffic exchanges sometimes get a bad press - but they really do work if they are used correctly. Use a "gateway" or "splash" page and you'll get results. Use an affiliate website and you'll be lucky to see a decent return on your time and effort.
Forums can be a really good way to get your name in front of people. Put your website's URL in your signature - you'll be surprised at how many visitors you attract by this method. The good thing is that they already "know" you from your posts - you can consider them to be "targeted" visitors.
Press releases can be an amazingly powerful way to market your website. You can pay for these but it is possible to get them for free. You can be on the front page of Google in a matter of days!
Don't worry that you won't have anything to say - a couple of paragraphs is all that's required. Visit the site below and have a look at some of the live releases available - you'll soon get the hang of it.

Writing articles is a great way to promote both yourself and your site. It's amazing how quickly these can be distributed around the internet. All you have to do is submit them to one or more of the free article banks available.
Try www.ezinearticles.com to get started - then find a few more.
Again - don't worry if you don't consider yourself to be a great writer. You can submit a list of 10 or 20 things to do in order to ....... whatever.
That's just four ways - there are plenty more.
