Top Hints To Generate Low Cost Website Traffic

Ever wonder how does popular sites drive traffic top their site? Most of them are spending a lot of money to drive the traffic to their sites and investing in many advertising campaigns(banners, PPC). This is all worthwhile because, well, they are what they are now, high earning, big hitting websites.

You don’t have to do this if you don’t really have their resources. There are many ways to generate low cost website traffic without having to spend what you don’t have or can’t afford.

  1. Exchange Links. This is a well-known and proven method. Exchanging links increase your PageRank on Google and other popular search engines. Of course, it may drive a small direct traffic too.
  2. Same as exchangig links but on a different higher level. This may cost a bit more than exchanging or trading links but could be made cheaper because you get to earn credits.
  3. Write and Submit Articles. There are many e-zines (http://www.ezinearticles.com/) and online encyclopedias (Wiki) in the internet which provides free space for articles to be submitted. If you want to save costs, you can do the articles yourself.
  4. Submit your news and articles to news hubs. Take a look on Digg and Fark!
  5. Share your bookmarks at Del.icio.us and Reddit.
  6. Make a Newsletter. Its a hard work but there are many writers and sites that are willing to provide free articles as long as they can get their name in on your newsletter.
