I have tried to drive traffic to my site but I have turned out with nothing. No orders at all. I have a wonderful site and great products but It seems that the more I try to get results the fewer results i get. Ive tried "hammering" my site through an Ad campianger, and tried those sites were you use "credits" to get more traffic. still nothing.

Have you thought about pay per click programs? The two biggest, I think, are Yahoo! and Google

A few free resources – check out the sources box for links:

1) Create a blog pertaining to your field

2) Use Yahoo! Local & Yahoo! Groups – Be sure to read the TOS for each one!

3) Write articles pertaining to your field and/or expertise.

4) Advertise on Craiglist

Also, consider signing up for an affiliate program. These programs enable you to advertise on other's sites (your affiliates) and once a sale is made to you, your affiliates & the program are paid a commission.

I listed a few handy sites & articles relating to marketing, promotion & advertising. Here are some book titles that are relevant:

* 301 Do-It-Yourself Marketing Ideas: From America's Most Innovative Small Companies by Sam Decker
* Off The Wall Marketing Ideas: Jumpstart Your Sales without Busting Your Budget by Nancy Michaels, Debbi J. Karpowicz
* Guerrilla Marketing for Free: Dozens of No-Cost Tactics to Promote Your Business and Energize Your Profits by Jay Conrad Levinson
* Entrepreneur Magazine's Ultimate Small Business Marketing Guide: Over 1500 Great Marketing Tricks That Will Drive Your Business Through the Roof by James Stephenson

Hope that helps! I wish you much success & happiness in all your ventures!

Well, posting it like a question is a start... Here are some Ideas, although they cost $ its not much: What about having a couple of magnets made to put on your car w/ your logo and url; or those window stickers where its just the url on your back window; wear a t-shirt w/ your url etc, and have your family wear one too, to the mall for instance where there's a lot of people.. office supply stores have iron on transfer computer paper to make your own t's, or iron on letters; my friend had a plain black courier bag that she decorated w/ her logo in white.. ; go to a store that sells similar items and discreetly stash mini brochures or business cards w/ your url in the items (christians do this in the new age section of the bookstore); I could go on and on... just think out side of the box and think of what you can 'physically' do... I hope this helps! If generating traffic on the web is unsuccessful, you gotta work around it and dont give up! Good luck... Im going to check out your site now......

there are some really inexpensive ways to boost your traffic. There are websites on the internet that allow you to advertise for free. I know if you do a search for them what you will return is mostly BS.

there is a webpage that lists the 10 best completely free online advertising sources, here is the link:
