Two New Traffic Generation Strategies You May Have Never Thought Of Before

July 11th, 2006

Mention traffic generation and chances are, people will suggest the usual approached. Article marketing, forum posting, reciprocal linking, search engine optimization (SEO), and even traffic buying… these are just some of the choices you always read about in many resource centers in the World Wide Web.

And since information about them is everywhere, you could bet your bottom dollar that your competitors are doing the exact same tactics.

You need something better. You need something new. You need something effective that people have yet to exploit.

And boy, are you in luck!

In this article, we’re going to discuss two powerful traffic generating strategies that you have never heard of before, and chances are, your competitors won’t have a clue about them either. These are tactics that are “hot off the press,” so to speak. They have just been discovered, and they are bound to give you unbridled traffic the likes of which you may not have experienced before.

The Secrets Of MySpace

There are reports circulating that www.myspace.com is generating 2 ½ times the amount of traffic that Google is acquiring. This is mistaken report that grew out of proportions. The real fact is that www.myspace.com is using 2 ½ times the bandwidth of Google, given the many exciting, but bandwidth-hungry, features of this website.

Nonetheless, there is no denying the fact that MySpace is one of the MOST visited websites today.

MySpace is a community/dating website that allows people to create their own profiles and connect the same to other people to build their own virtual network. It’s quite easy to build your network in this community. People claim that they are able to gain 1,500 contacts within two weeks.

Now, how could these statistics help you generate massive traffic for your own website?

Simple.

Create a MySpace profile and build your network. It doesn’t require much effort. There are already quite a number of services out there that could even do the job for you.

Include your main website’s link in your profile page. This would give you a back link on a page that has a very high Page Rank (PR), which is excellent to boost your website’s own PR. For the uninitiated, a high PR would mean a higher placement in search engine results, hence a greater volume of traffic for your website.

But this isn’t enough.

MySpace also has a community billboard feature. If you’d post there, your message would appear in the profiles of all your contacts. Simply include your link in your message. Imagine if you have 20,000 contacts. You could potentially garner 20,000 visitors with just one message. Additionally, you’d have 20,000 back links pointing to your main website! This is a wonderful opportunity to increase your link popularity!

This MySpace route is something that has yet to be exploited. In fact, most of the internet marketing superstars have yet to discover this approach.

Yes indeed.

You’ll be one of the first!

Connecting With CraigsList

The website www.craigslist.com is an online classified ads center dedicated to employment opportunities. However, it accepts all manners of advertisements.

For free, at that!

What does this mean?

Well, Craigslist is a PR7 website. Simply choose the category most appropriate for the subject of your website and place an advertisement that would invite readers to visit your web pages.

They don’t have to click on the link. They don’t have to visit your website.

Having your link in a PR7 website is enough to spike up your own website’s Page Rank! Again, this means a higher position in search engine results pages, and more organic traffic for your online business.

Amazing strategies, aren’t they?

And what’s best is that you’re one of the first people to know about them. So use them well and get the head start on your competition!
