      I think Pay Per Click, get to know it if you don't already. Done properly, you should see good results.

          Hey ive been getting great traffic from these methods now im trying to brand myself befor i start making money so this is what ive been doing

          1 Forum Traffic
          Forums are fantastic communities of people that share common interests and passion so to get traffic from forums all you do is chat ask loads of questions leave comments and help people answer other peoples questions don’t make it all about you give help you also want to help people not just a person almost every niche will have its own forum and everyone is interested in your subject
          Its important that you dont just join a forum and put your sites out straight away delivery value and you will receive tons of traffic
          You can find forums by going to google and typing your niche in say for me i would put Internet marketing forums lists you get a load of results just look and see which have the most traffic to them
          so add value and you will get traffic
          2 Article Traffic
          Article traffic is one of the most popular traffic methods because its easy and free
          So just submit a short informational article about 500 words related to your niche and put your website / blog on the bottom submit the article to lots of article directories then you will see lots of traffic from this
          3 Squidoo Traffic
          Squidoo is a social community website which allows users to create about themselves you can make it about your product your blog or websites you can have as many lens as you want and all these lens could link back to your blog/websites
          You should write a lens around areas that you have a fair amount of knowledge about and can write with confidence you can also get them write for you if your not great at writing before you write a lens get abit of knowledge by going to google and looking up other people lens and get few ideas
          So thats 3 great easy and free wasy to get traffic and as i am still learning i will have alot more ways to share hope this helps

          Thanks
          Davy Norton

            Eventually, you get to a point where you'll happily spend money if the site will just STOP POPPING UP WINDOWS! And if you're not so computer-savvy, you don't see any alternative.

              LOL! Kind of like a reverse psychology thing working. But seriously, I use ONE pop-up on my site and that's it. Any sites that use those multiple and repetitive pop-ups just annoy the crap out of me and ensure I would never buy something from them.

              I honestly can't believe they think that would work.

              All of my clients have done exactly the opposite.

              Once they do a proper split test and look at the results, they go "crap, exit popups DO convert better" and keep them.

              Now, when you say "an extended time-period," what exactly do you mean? Do you find that there's a short-term argument for the exit pop-up that then diminishes or disappears with time? What kind of time frame are you talking about here?

        SIDENOTE - Personally I am getting more and more annoyed with the 4 pop-up windows to try and leave a site. It's getting to be a bit overkill.

        Now back to the original question. For fast traffic you have several choices. Some require money and others don't. The paid sources include but are certainly not limited to the following:

        1 - PPC traffic - Works fast once setup but can also be a disaster in the making if you don't know what you are doing.

        2 - Purchase a list blast from one of the people offering to send your ad to their list. Works fast if they have an opening but no guarantee it will generate sales or anything else.

        There are tons of free sources but some of my favorites include the following:

        1 - Forum posting - You mention it is in the IM niche. You could sign up for 5 different IM forums and start posting away but the problem is you need to provide quality postings and build up your reputation before people take your signature serious and that will take some time.

        2 - Yahoo Answers - I still personally love this method because when done correctly you won't get banned and you will quickly drive visitors to your site. The key is to provide quality answers to open questions that were posted in the last 3-4 days.

        Also, you need to be personable. I always end all of my postings with words of encouragement such as "hang in there buddy" or "hope this helps".

        Or you can post little comical endings to your answer such as "I know, my answer is clear as mud right...lol" or "I'll stop my answer here because my wife is looking at me as if I were babbling on the keyword and the last thing you wanted was a dissertation".

        Finally, I always end with "Respectfully, Tim".

        The point is you provide some quality info and come across as a real person and in most cases you end forming an Internet bond with the person that asked the question and other readers of your answer and they end up visiting your site.

        Other free and fast methods include posting something on Twitter and Facebook. For me, Facebook works much better at driving quick traffic but you have to mix the marketing in with the social aspect and finding the right combination can be tricky.

        Hope this helps you out with your thought process -

        Respectfully,
        Tim

            That, my friend, has been the tried and proven way to get awesome traffic from a ready-tp-spend audience.

            When you use your warriorforum sig to promote your service, add some good posts to that sig, and you will get quality visitors. Some people will visit even for the quality of your post, not just the curiosity quotient of your product or service.

            One other way you can get a rush in traffic is to buy ezine advertisments from quality lists like viralurl and listjoe, or something similar. You may end up paying $200 for an advt. that makes you $1000 n 5 days.

              Coluden,
              You bring up the idea of buying ads in Ezines. Is there a list of such Ezines that have a proven track record of producing positive results? If so, where might one find this list? Thanks for the thought.

      Yeah, so try that or...

      If you need it fast and targeted PPC would be one of the best ways. You just need to write good ads.

      You could also try something like Viral URL. It's not very targeted but you do get exposure to a lot of people fast.

      Probably PPC though...

    Be very careful with PPC if you have never used it. Set your budget and monitor your ads. Split test to see which one performs best. But there are still the free methods and just being on this forum is a great traffic generator.

    It really depends what niche you are talking about, because if it not IM you would be better in the forum for that particular niche.

    Buy some banner space on high traffic sites - but that can get expensive.

    Find a couple of large forums in your related niche, and pay the forum owner to send out a mass email describing your product.

    Malachi, don't fool yourself and don't let others fool you, there really is NO fast way to get traffic. There are MANY ways to get traffic to your site and they all take some time for you to start seeing real results. One of the best methods for increasing traffic in the IM niche is through email marketing. Email marketing entails a number of different tactics like solo ads, contact solo ads, ezines, newsletters among others.

    Now, in order for your email marketing campaign to be effective you need to ensure a few things: 1. The email service is opt in and the owner of the service can GUARANTEE this. 2. The email service is targeted. - if it isn't you will be wasting your time. 3. Preferably the service is to Contact emails. - this means that people who subscribed did so with a contact email. An email account that they use as their contact information, one that they check constantly and IS active.

    I also suggest that you combine free and paid services in order to see the best results. Also remember that it is a matter of trial and error. What works for some people does not necessarily work for everyone.

  • I too was tempted to send him over to his signature, but after I clicked on it I noticed that it is a free download. So, if he is looking for paid services in order to bring in traffic, his software might not be of much service. That goes to show you that trusting software is not an effective way to achieve success.

    One thing you should do is get rid of those annoying "Wait -blah blah blah" and then if the user opts out you still send them to another page. Bad idea. If they opt out then let them go.

      The best way to make traffic is search engines. If your site will come on top in search engine for some certain keywords then user will visit your site first. Your keywords should be related to your site URL and your services.

    There are ways to get traffic very fast but it is almost never "targeted" traffic. Traffic that is not targeted is virtually worthless. Stick to all the tried and true IM methods. It takes longer to get the momentum going but long term you will get more traffic and more conversions.

    If you're after instant buyer traffic, go to the JV forum and purchase a couple
    of solo ads. If what you're saying is right, you'll double or triple your money instantly.

      1. Write a press release announcing that you have launched a new website.
      2. Optimize the press release using 'buying' keywords that will attract your target market. ('Buying' phrases include words like 'buy', 'order', etc., or describe your product/service in very specific terms, like 'small red widgets' rather than just 'widgets'.)
      3. Include anchor links in the press release that point to your site.
      4. Submit the release to free distribution sites -- PRLog.org, PressZoom.com or PRFocus.com, etc., or pay $20 for WebWire If you want wider distribution.
      The press release will usually get posted and indexed by Google within a couple of hours after submitting it to PRLog or WebWire. The anchor links in your press release will drive targeted traffic based on your chosen keywords straight to your site as soon as the PR is indexed.

      If you want to take it a step further and build a list, you can offer a free short report from a landing page on your site, and use a press release to announce the free report, following the steps above.

      The press release will get you fast traffic as well as create targeted backlinks for long term traffic -- win/win!

      Good luck with your launch!

    The quickest way to drive traffic can be done with ppc and media buys. These will give you instant results. But you will end up spending a few weeks losing money before you see a dime in profit.

    When you see profit then you can begin to scale up by running traffic using ppc engines like adwords and msn adcenter together.

    If you are ok with waiting about a couple days to months for long - term self sustaining traffic you should utilize video, article marketing, building lists using article directories, converting twitter traffic (even though the majority of twitter traffic are marketers or bots nowadays) .

    Basically you should take a look at:

    1. How long you are willing to wait for traffic.

    2. How much you are willing to spend on traffic and take it from there.
