The best way I know of generating traffic is by using articles. If you can make a sincere promise to yourself that over the next 12 weeks you will create a minimum of five articles per day, then after 12 weeks, you will see a tremendous difference in the number of subscribers on your list and the improved quality of your list.
It isn't easy, but it definitely works.
What you need to do on a regular basis is to sit down and create your articles.
You first need to create an enticing heading. The heading must be compelling enough to get readers to click on and read your article. Then you need to create an article that is full of valuable information.
You can teach your reader something new in your particular niche, or you could tell them some new information.
Whatever you do, it is important that your article helps the reader.
Then you need to find a list of four or five article directories that will continuously submit your articles online.
These directories must have a list of regular readers.
There are some article directories available that will produce zero traffic, and it is very important that you avoid these like the plague. It is also important that you have a squeeze page with which to generate your list.
When a reader clicks on to your article and clicks on to your link at the bottom of the article, there must be some kind of mechanism such as the squeeze page that will take your reader's name and e-mail address, and in return, give them a free product of some description.
An e-book is perfect.
An e-course is good.
A recording is also effective.
The final thing you should be able to do is to monitor your statistics.
How many articles are you submitting on a regular basis? How many readers are reading your articles? How many people are clicking through your articles to your website, and how many are actually submitting their names and e-mail addresses?
With this sort of information, you will be able to make dramatic improvements to your traffic-generating skill. Over a period of 12 weeks, you will dramatically increase the number of people, the number of subscribers that opt in to your list. And this, in return, will manifest itself in greater sales of your products and services.
