Wouldn't you want to generate traffic to your site without spending a single cent? Bet it would seem like mission impossible but wait, I will share with you some methods. To be frank, paying for advertisements is the easiest and fastest way. But surely there is no harm trying out some free methods. The only concern to be honest is that it may take a bit of time to judge the effectiveness. But it is still worth trying.
1. One good idea which I can think of is to trade links with other similar niche websites. This is a win-win situation. Both link-exchanged sites stand to gain when visitors to either site may have the tendency to click on each other links (vice versa). But, make sure you get a confirmation agreement with other webmaster before you do this.
2. Another great way is to write articles. Try to write articles that provide useful information such as tips or guides related to your niche business. Most importantly, do include your web link so that visitors reading your articles know where to go should they want to visit your site for more information. By doing so, you would generate traffic flowing to your site as time goes. There are many sites, such as ezinearticles, etc, which provide free articles submission and posting. Try it out.
3. Make good use of keywords and keyword phrases for your site. Make your site as informational and content rich as possible. Quality content counts too. With the right keywords, it is possible that search engines may place your site on higher rankings, at no costs.
4. Try out online forums. Do discussion and information exchange targeting your niche business. Present to others your fabulous expertise and build trust with other forum members. When people know you have quality stuff, they will make it a point to visit your site regularly. Think of it as free self-advertisement.
5. Last but not least, provide some kind of newsletter. Make sure you have the latest interesting and informational updates so that visitors will be entice to visit your site regularly, hungry for content. Moreover, people who like your site will definitely recommend it to their friends or relatives, thus generating more traffic.
Above are only some basic ways which can provide free traffic. There are a lot more which I can think of. So can you. All it takes is to put in your utmost effort and I am sure you will be able to have your site up and running with tremendous traffic flow.
