"If you build it, they will come" is not necessarily true on the Web. Putting a website up is one thing, but getting visitors to come to your site is another. The process becomes even more difficult if you have limited resources to market your business.

Here are some shoestring marketing ideas that can help you get the visitors you need at the least cost possible:

1. Create the best content you can with the best products you can possibly offer. Your content is your best advertisement - if visitors love your content, then they will go back and spread the word to others.

2. Make it easy for users to recommend your site. Viral marketing is very important -- and easy to tap on the Web. But give your users the tools. Get a Recommend this Site script from websites such as cgiscripts.com and similar directories of scripts. Some even go as far as giving incentives to those who recommend the site to their friends. If only 10 people go to your site, but these 10 people invite 10 more - that's additional traffic that you get for FREE!

3. Rank well in the search engines (organic search results, not the pay per click). SEs can be a big source of traffic. The key is to create the best content in your niche. If you have good content, other websites will gladly link to you and offer your site as a resource to their audience. Check the on-page factors and be sure to get linked from authority sites in your topic area.

If you are going to read only one piece on search engine optimization, I suggest you read Brett Tabke of WebmasterWorld.com's "Successful Site in 12 Months with Google Alone: 26 steps to 15k a day." http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum3/2010.htm

4. Send out press releases. While outfits charge as much as $650 per release, there are free press release submission places on the Web. Press releases allow you to (a) attract media attention; (b) get more back links to your website without sending each website an email request; and (c) get more visibility especially if your press release gets in Google News or Yahoo News. My website (see my profile) accepts free press release submission (no strings attached!)

5. Submit articles. Write articles and submit them to websites accepting author submissions. You get exposure for your business; establishes you as an authority in your field, and allows you to get backlinks for your website. If 50 websites publish your article and it contains a link back to your website, then you easily get 50 links from a single article. The more links you have, the greater your chances for increasing your search engine rankings.

6. Improve your conversion. Getting visitors is one thing; getting them to buy your products is a whole different story. Read the article "10 Ways to Convert Visitors to Buyers" http://www.powerhomebiz.com/072005/conversion.htm for tips on how to improve your conversion rates.

One of my peers has an internet buz so I requested him what he suggestion was once the fine solution to get site visitors. He mentioned There is nobody means that's the fine...you wish to have a process. So I requested him which process he used (because he makes plenty of cash on-line) and he mentioned Web Traffic Machines. Apparently they do not take lengthy to mounted, they usually run nearly on autopilot and simply maintain producing distinct site visitors. And he mentioned it's unfastened site visitors too! It maybe some thing that you just uncover useful. Best of success to you.

Depends. If you use a pay per click advertising program with Yahoo, MSN, and Google you can decide which keywords will generate your taffic. If you want to go the free route, you'll need to boost your traffic rankings in the organic search area by having more links.

Build a Good Foundation
* Before you start promoting your web site, it is worthwhile to get your own domain name
* Make sure your site is complete (no missing graphics or underconstruction sign, etc.) A complete web site can be as
small as one page. You can always grow it later.
* Make sure your site has something useful to say or sell. People will not bookmark a site that is useless.
* Make sure each of your web pages is optimized for high search engine ranking.

Build your Internet Presence
* Submit your site to major search engines, especially Google
* Submit your site to major web site directories, especially DMOZ
* Exchange links with other webmasters, but only with sites that are related to yours (reciprocal linking)
* Consider publishing monthly e-newsletter to keep your current user base to come back to your site
* Consider hosting discussion forums
* Consider e-mail marketing http://qualitybase.org/emails.aspx
