As you probably already know, traffic is the lifeblood of your online business. There are many different ways of driving traffic. Some better than others. Here is a list of some really good ones.
Search Engine Traffic - This is probably the cream of the crop of free traffic but also the most difficult to obtain. This basically means ranking your website on the first few pages of Google for your keyword. Once there you will see some amazing traffic.
Yahoo Answers - This involves answering questions people ask on a certain topic. It is very easy to gain traffic with this method, but a bit of time needs to be spent levelling up your account in order to be able to post links in your answers.
Forum Signature - This is an excellent form of targeted traffic. Basically you join and participate in a forum relating to your niche. With every post you make, your signature goes in with it, promoting the website of your choice. People read your signature and click through to your website.
Article Marketing - This is a great source of traffic. Basically you write articles related to your niche and post them on sites like EzineArticles. When people read your article they quite often click through to your website using the resource box on the bottom of your article.
Document Sharing Sites - This is another great source of targeted traffic when done correctly. Take some of your articles and turn them into a quick pdf and then upload them to sites like docstoc, Yudu, Scribd. If you do not know how to do this it is very simple. Simply copy your article into an open office document and then save as a pdf.
How To Guides - This can result in an amazing amount of traffic. Basically you write a free eBook on how to do something relating to your niche. You then upload your how to guides to places like instructables. This site has an awesome page rank so get your keyword research right and you will see a flood of traffic to your sites.
YouTube Videos - Making videos and uploading them to YouTube would have to be one of the best forms of traffic there is. Just record a short video related to your niche, and attach a link to your website in the description. This will drive an enormous amount of traffic to your website.
Twitter And Facebook - Over 700 million users can't be wrong. Spend some time gaining fans and followers on both of these sites and you will surely be laughing all the way to the bank. Squidoo And HubPages - These are basically free website building programs. Take the time to set up some hubs and lenses and this will just grow your traffic even further.
So there you have it. With that list of traffic sources you should be set to gain an avalanche of traffic to any site you are promoting.
