I am always on the lookout for new traffic generation methods. While the old-school methods do work, it is always interesting to find the next breakthrough way of generating some solid traffic to your website. Who knows, one of these methods could be a winner for you.
Here are just five of the methods I recently uncovered:
1. Underground Forums
There are several underground forums that offer freebies or downloads of hot products currently on sale. If you want to generate traffic for list building, you can ask a friend to upload a link for a "backdoor" registration or link to a product you are selling. It is a good way to get a regular stream of people coming into your website. A word of warning though - don't get caught promoting your own product or you might get banned.
2. Email Signature
Your email signature is a secret weapon most people miss out on. If you regularly communicate with people over the web, you will at least reach out to 3 - 4 people per day. Imagine if those people saw your link and clicked on it? Instant traffic without doing much work! Put in a link to your website and a short one sentence describing the benefit of checking out your website.
if you are using a messenger service, feel free to update your status with your link and a short reason why people should check it out.
3. Pay With A Tweet
"Pay With A Tweet" is a project by "Innovative Thunder" for fun. While it is still new, it has the potential to send your link and spread the word about you to dozens of people. The idea is that you offer a product for download and all people have to do to get access to the download is to click on the "Pay with a tweet" button. Your link is now shared with the person's followers and the cycle continues! The first book the team launched had over 13,000 downloads in 72 hours just using this method.
Imagine putting up a link to an e-book and getting people to share it on twitter. You can simply leave affiliate links and a short bio of yourself in your book and share it!
4. Facebook Groups
You will be surprised how easy it is to get dozens of traffic coming into your website simply by placing your link in a post to the group or a reply to a post. I like to make sure that my link is relevant to the group and if I am commenting to a post, that the link is relevant and helpful. This is to make sure I do not get kicked out the group and that I am still providing value.
This helps spread the word because other members of the group will see the link and check it out! Instant traffic!
Try out these unusual methods of traffic generation and see how they work out for you.
