Free Website Traffic Equals A Lot More Profit

It seems as if all of the popular online marketing books must have authors who work for one of the paid search engines. We have a rash of ebooks that promise to make you so much money you'll be able to quit your day job, kill your day job, fire your boss, etc. The common thread of each of these systems is the use of pay per click traffic. They usually concentrate on Google Adwords, and also may mention Yahoo Search Marketing, and MSN Adcenter.

However, managing a paid search campaign takes experience, and is not a skill somebody can really learn in a hundred page book. The authors must realize that 90 perccent of the people who attempt to run their first few campaigns will run through their advertising budgets and give up in frustration. A few will persist, and through luck or insight, be able to profit. But this will take up a lot of time, and after subtracting the advertising costs, even some of these people will realize they were not well compensated.

When people ask me how to get an online business started, I urge them to begin with free traffic. Believe me, there are still tons of free advertising sources out in cyberspace. I think a person who is new to internet marketing will be better served by testing different merchant programs, learning to write sales copy, and constructing effective ads, and then using free traffic to test them. Then, after an affiliate marketer finds a great product, and has a few sales under his or her belt, it may be time to consider paying for traffic. Free traffic from major search engines like Google and Yahoo is called 'natural' or 'organic' traffic. Concentrate on making search engine friendly websites. You can find lots of free website optimization tips so your website will be found when internet surfers are looking for products like yours.

If you don't know how to build a website, consider making a blog. Free blogger sources like http://blogger.com are great places to start. You can also use the major social networking sites like Myspace, Digg, or Squidoo. You can also submit articles which point back to your website or blog. Social networking and article submission sies are all designed to be very easy to use, and you will not need any special technical skills. Participate in forums that are related to the products you are selling, and you will be certain to find a good place to plug your own website!

It may seem like generating free traffic will be more difficult than simply paying for traffic. However, I believe that a beginning marketer will be better served by concetrateing on learning how to market, and in finding good products to sell, than by spending all of their time managing a paid traffic campaign!
