I need some help with traffic

[chris busa]

Facebook is getting huge right now and a great source to find targeted traffic. You can use there advertising platform and target people based on keywords, interests and very targeted demographics, you can choose to do PPC or CPM.

You also can create fan pages, groups and events and target people that way also, having a event you can put people into a list then send them a message, its basically the same as sending out a email brodcast within your autoresponder. facebook has almost 500 million users now and more than enough traffic to go around and some for every single person on this site

I am just starting to see the power of facebook now too myself so am going to hit it up hard

hope this helps

cheers

It's not the greatest and all-encompassing traffic course by any means... but literally hundreds of testimonials and thank you's have come in for the one I give away for free:

http://www.robthegenietoth.com/download-your-freebies/

the opt-in page is at http://www.howtogetprospects.com if you want access to other freebies too... but the above page alone will give you direct download to various freebies include the full traffic course. (used to sell it for $47 but it's a good 2.5 years "outdated"). Doesn't mean it's not relevant but it does mean that I certainly can't sell it for $47...

There are lots of ways to get traffic Taylor, but you must choose max. 3 to get started and become the master at those traffic strategy.

I would suggest that you have a blog with Optin page or a landing page with optin page.
Then you can find forums related to your needs and participate actively in forums
Here is forum directory: http://www.big-boards.com/

You also can use social media sites like facebook and twitter to build your presence in your related niche

Hope this helps

Write up some SEO'd articles (I'd submit a unique one to EzineArticles.com first then re-write it with some different wording and such and submit them to article directories.)

Submit your website rss feeds to various different feed submission sites (feedage, feedest, etc. I can get you a list of some).

Combine the html links of all your submitted articles into a feed of its own using a service like html2rss.com and then submit THAT unique feed to the same feed directories (with unique title and description text.)

Submit your website post links and such to social bookmarking sites like digg, stumbleupon, deli, etc. and post to facebook and twitter, etc.

Collect any and all rss feed links you have for content you've put together that contains links to your site and mix that into one big rss feed using a service like rssmix.com.

Submit THAT feed link to feed directories and drop it into twitter and, more importantly, identi.ca (this gets indexed FAST by the google)

Do some searches for blogs in your niche and top page ranking sites for your keyword and LSI (Latent Semantic Index) keywords and get active as a commenter.

Do the same with forums related to your blog.

And so on and so forth....

Contact me if you have any questions, you may be able to convince me to put together some quick video tutorials on some of this.

You are going about this the WRONG way!

You need to know exactly how much you can
spend on buying your customer first. Then work
back in to how much and what kind of traffic you can
buy.

Once you have the numbers worked out then its
just a questions of cash flow.

There is NO shortage of traffic on the web.

Check out this for some traffic numbers


All you have to do is understand your numbers.

Google Adwords is Still working great for me & a lot of my friends. Takes a while to learn the system, but once you do, one of the best traffic sources I know of. Make sure to experiment with the content network- really great results out of there lately.

Hi Taylor,

You have some great advice here so my recommendation is to follow it!

When I started, one guy I now (happily) have as a friend, said when I
asked him a similar question was write "Articles, Articles, Articles".

Great guy and more importantly, he is successful.

Get that skill under your belt first...

I would say buy your traffic with PPC and banners, because once you have a good-converting offer, you can scale up!

Hey Taylor....

If you go down the paid traffic route, feel free to take a look at my free webinar video that I did a few weeks back.

No, no opt-in or funny business. Ignore the offer at the end, it's done now:

Lot's of people learned a good amount from there, perhaps it will help you with your endeavours.

Thanks,
