We all want to have more traffic for our websites and there are many ways to accomplish that. There are several free ways and some not so free ways to entice visitors to your site. Let's look at some free ways to get build your traffic:

1. Email: You have an email account, right? You send out emails to lots of people every day, right? Let's use that every day activity to generate some traffic. Change your signature line to include a free offer for those who visit your website or sign up for your newsletter (ezine).

2. Forums: If you visit forums, you can add your free offer to your signature line. When you ask a question or post a comment, your free offer is right there for everyone to see...and click!

3. Blogging: Do you have a blog? If not, you can start one for free at Blogger.com. Once you have a blog going, add a form for readers to sign up for your list.

4. Twitter: Start following tweeters and replying to their tweets. Make sure your replies are relevant and intelligent. Once you've been doing this for a while, you'll get followers too. When you have established followers, send out a tweet asking your followers to sign up for your mailing list.

5. Linked In: Linked In allows you to include both your title and website address link for your contacts to click. Use your title, Webmaster of your website, and the website link to entice your contacts to your site. Make regular changes to your profile so that your contacts are notified that you have changed something and are drawn to your Linked In page to view the change. Once there, they have another opportunity to become intrigued by your website.

6. Facebook: Facebook allows you to join groups, invite other Internet and Network Marketers to be your friend, and create your own groups. Establish yourself as a leader and valuable contributor to the Facebook community. As Facebook users start to see you in this light, they will want to listen to your recommendations. Just be careful, because Facebook is basically a social network and has a low tolerance for aggressive marketing.

There are many more ways to increase traffic to your site, but these free methods will get you started on the way to making a living on the internet. My goal is for you to benefit from the hours of research and trial and error that I've done. Here's to your quick and bountiful success!
