Free Traffic

So many websites offer the promise of free traffic, but when we put them under the microscope we will almost certainly find what it is going to cost us. So we have to become accustomed to looking for the fine print so we are not unpleasantly surprised.

It doesn't take a brain surgeon to see between the lines of so many of these websites offering false hopes. Anyway, it took me a while, but I have actually found a way to get free traffic. True!

Most of those web sites do have a point though, getting free traffic will eventually cost you, but it will cost you some time instead of money. So let's put our cheque books away and look at some real life methods to get some traffic.

What do we have to do then to get all this traffic? In a word it's 'Articles'. You have heard the stories about how article marketing will help you get free traffic right? Well, its not an urban myth, it is correct. Article marketing basically works around the clock, well, it's daylight somewhere in the world isn't it? The fact are that out of one hundred readers that read an article,about ten per cent of them will click back to your website. Further to that, about two percent of them will buy something on your site.

In actual fact, it is quite easy to write an article, just think of yourself talking to someone and explaining it to them in a casual manner. Most articles do not have to be too long winded, about 400 words or a few short paragraphs is all that is needed to get your point across. In a few minutes you can have one written or get someone to write it for you.

There are people out there who would like to hear your particular view on your favourite topic. Just think of it as you making new friends by offering free helpful advice, all on automatic. The time you take to implement this method of getting free traffic is time well spent.
