Online Marketing Techniques - 5 Top Traffic Generators

Copyright (c) 2010 Joe Albert StewartThe key to successful online marketing techniques is traffic. Once you are directing medium amounts of targeted traffic to your home business the rest is easy.There are different online marketing techniques that can be used to drive visitors to your internet business. I will recommend starting out with free strategies. The key to success with free strategies is massive action in the first 3 months. After about 6 months you should be generating decent traffic. This is when you should start implementing paid methods as well.Here are my free online marketing strategies

:

1) article marketing - Writing articles is not difficult. Finding content about your niche is a simple case of getting on Google and doing some quick research. Don't forget to do your keyword research. Your keyword phrase needs to be in your title and 2 times in your body content. You'll have a link at the bottom of your article linking to your landing page. EzineArticles is the best article directory.2) video marketing - just use the content from your articles in your videos. Remember, put the keyword in the title. Link your videos to your articles to create a quality backlinking strategy. This will get your articles ranked higher in Google. Within your first 3 months you should have 50 - 100 videos and articles.3) blogging - setting up a blog is a great way of branding yourself. Make sure you have a nice picture of yourself in the header and a "about me" page. People are looking to buy into a leader, so you need to become that person. Post lots of free quality content on the blog (just use your articles and videos).4) email marketing - ideally you should have a way of capturing peoples email address' on your blog. I have an Aweber account, which I use to look after my list and generate my capture forms. I offer people a free "bootcamp" training if they sign up. People love free stuff. This list will grow over time, eventually you'll be able to start making sales from it.5) social media marketing - set up accounts on the big social sites, like Facebook, twitter and MySpace. You should try and have about 5,000 friends on each site by the end of the "massive action phase". Link your social media to your blog. Post regular content but don't try to sell to anyone. Just make friends and have a good time.These online marketing techniques aren't hard but they will take a long time, and will sometimes be very boring. But if you can get these down you'll start to see big traffic. This is when paid advertising is awesome, because your free traffic methods will earn you the money to pay for your paid methods.
