Free Traffic System

This is a popular traffic generation program that relies on one-way backlinks to promote SERP improvement. Traffic is gained through organic search engine listings; no code, banners, auto-surfing, popups or more nefarious black hat techniques.

Idea is to allow users to submit articles for blog owners. The bloggers get free content, and you get backlinks to your website for keywords you select within each article. It's simple, and it seems to be working for a lot of people.

Free and pro memberships, usual promos, etc. Affiliate program.

All the details are here:

Facebook Promotion

So how the heck do you market your website with Facebook?

I've built fan pages, I've tried Facebook ads, and I've built Facebook apps, all in an effort to get more traffic.

My Facebook pages don't attract a lot of traffic, but I don't do anything to promote them. To be honest, I'm still not sure why so many websites immediately try to shuffle their visitors off to their Facebook pages.

Creating a fan page is simple enough, and for me, it was a small investment of time, and I'm not going to spend a lot more trying to keep it active. Maybe I'm off the mark here, but I'm using Facebook to attract visitors to my website, not the other way around.

With the apps, it's been a different story. I see these as doorway sites that have the sole purpose of getting users back to Facebook, where the apps are most effective, and the pageviews are still mine.

The goal for me was to generate new traffic, and the viral nature of social marketing seems to be kicking in now.

Here are the apps I have developed so far:

Zookmarks
ContactClick

Now, if you're lazy, rich or just plain savvy, it turns out you can sort of bypass all the work and just purchase Facebook fans (or Twitter followers):

Toolbars and Apps

I have to admit, I've heard about toolbars and toolbar apps for a long time, but I never really appreciated how easy it can be to generate new visitors with them.

I was contacted by a friend who suggested I check out the Conduit Toolbar Platform. Conduit allows webmasters to create free customized toolbars and toolbar applications, and then distribute them to their users.

Hmm, seems like a lot of work, and I'd still have to promote the stuff. But there's more.

Now you can submit your work to the Conduit Marketplace and if people like what you have to offer, they will take it. I built a few apps and in less than a week I had over 100 users, all viewing my content -- and viewing my ads. No more work, and the traffic keeps growing.

But rather than have me try to explain it all, why not head over there now and check it out for yourself.
