Generating traffic to your website can sometimes be a very frustrating and tedious task. It can also become very expensive if you do not know what you are doing. Traffic is the lifeline of any internet business. Without traffic, you make no money. Since the goal of most websites is to turn a profit, traffic generation is a very important factor.
Here are 3 totally free ways you can start generating traffic to your website almost immediately.
Twitter – Twitter is where its at these days. Its one of the most visited social networking sites online. Join twitter right now if you havent already. Write a short bio, add your link and start making friends. The key to being successful on social networking sites is sharing. Share information and help people out. The more you share the more people will visit your page to see what you have to say. Your following will quickly grow. Once people see that you are willing to share instead of sell them all the time, they are more likely to visit your site and take advantage of what you have to offer. I personally dedicate about an hour a day posting and following people on Twitter. I try to keep it to an hour because twitter is very addictive. If I don’t make myself get off the site, I will be on it all day. Since im trying to make money online, I have to set aside a certain amount of time for each task.
Write articles – Article marketing, in my opinion, is one of the greatest ways to generate free traffic to your website. Articles work really well. It can take a while to get your first few articles out there, but once you get the hang of it you will be able to finish multiple articles in a short period of time. The more articles you have out there the better. I submit my articles to 8 different directories. Ehow, EzineArticles, ArticlesBase, ArticleDashboard, Easyarticles, Ideamarketers, GoArticles and ArticleAlley. If you don’t have a lot of money to spend on PPC and other forms of paid advertisement then article marketing is the best way to go.
Bookmark EVERYTHING – I use onlywire to spread my articles and blog posts across several different social bookmarketing sites quickly. This not only gives me a boost in traffic but it also helps my link popularity. Onlywire submits your bookmarks to 28 different websites. If you want a lot of traffic, bookmark EVERYTHING.

Good article. I imagine that with just the full focus and implementation of these 3 things alone, one would do very well over the long run.
Also speaking of traffic, here’s a link to a completely free and valuable service I just found out about which should help anyone in the area of generating much more of it.

Hi Heather,
I enjoyed your article. What I find strange is that I see that you ask for ppl. to Retweet your post, you advice people to use twitter, but I have difficulty finding your own twitteraccount.
What is your twitteraccount?
I hope you don’t mind me asking.

Hey Deana,
My twitter account is BillionDollaGrl. I had to abbreviate because of the character limits. The whole Billion Dolllar Girl wouldn’t fit. I am following you now on twitter. Keep checking back for great articles!
Great article! Social media is a driving force that I believe will only get bigger. Simply because, many voices are much more potent than one. Your content is outstanding, and your attitude is contagious! Thanks again!
