    I'd really recommend that you (1) do some online research into the matter or (2) join the War Room.

    The War Room has TONS (many) free reports, guides, WSOs about getting free traffic. I have collected quite a bit of good stuff from the War Room regarding "free" traffic.

    You might want to invest in that and if not, do a thread search for "free traffic" and you might be surprised what comes up -- all the answers to your question has already been answered in great detail; ready for you to read and learn from!

      +1 for the War Room. It's probably the BEST investment you will make here in the Warrior Forum.

          I think it depends on what niche you are in...

          If you are in the IM niche getting free traffic from the WF is a good start.

          If you are in any other Niches I would suggest Starting a Blog, Joining related forums, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Pod casting, and any other platforms that you can add value to your audience.

          This are all good FREE ways to get started

            I am not sure if you are in the internet marketing niche or other?

            Forum marketing - I noticed you don't have a signature file. Get onr and help others with problems

            Free Giveaway event - Easy way to start a list.

            Ad-swaps - Sending an email to your list while your JV partner sends one to theirs

            Solo ads (not free) - by far the best RIO of any method I use when you find the right solos and have a proper sales funnel

            Hope this helps - PM if you need any details

    Hi mbowler11,

    Based on what I have tested, with free traffic you probably won't get as many people to your salespage as you will with paid traffic, but if you're just starting out and can't afford to spend money on advertising then these methods will definitely help you get started.

    1. Forums - Post quality and relevant posts related to your niche.
    2. Youtube - I believe Youtube needs no introduction.
    3. Adswaps - You can only use ad swaps if you've already got a list, so if you're just building yours this method will not be very helpful now.

    Hope it helps...

    Raymond

    Your on the right path. Write articles, find keywords that you can easily rank your website pages for, build targeted backlinks to your website, do blogging, forum marketing, start your own affiliate program at Clickbank, and even do joint ventures. All of these (except Clickbank) is free, and awesome strategies.

    Aside from article marketing, I think it is best nowadays to engage yourself in Social Media. Social media help a lot of marketers these days to get lots of traffic to their site. However, you need to make sure that you are sharing the best content to them. You can try some off-page link building just to add up some backlinks to your site.

  • You can search for Facebook PPC coupon codes, so you can get free Facebook PPC credits...

    Not exactly free, but you can search for hosting companies offering $75 of free Adwords PPC credits when you purchase a monthly hosting subscription plan from them, usually $10/month, so you get a hosting account plus $75 of Adwords PPC credits...

    Contact owners of authority sites and blogs heavily trafficked by your target viewers, especially owners of sites/blogs with large readership and mailing list subscriber bases as well as top ranking pages in Google for your target keywords. Offer them relevant, updated content useful for the needs and problems of their viewers, which they can use for their sites/blogs or their newsletters/mailing list updates, in exchange for banner and text links pointing to your sites, sales pages and squeeze pages...

    Develop a digital info product with benefits not found elsewhere which are needed by your target audiences to satisfy their immediate needs and solve their "hair on fire" problems about topics and sub topics covered by your target industry, niche, micro niche and keywords/keyphrases. Post this as an affiliate product with a 90% or more commission percentage per sale. Promote your affiliate product to interested affiliates by using your free PPC credits and the other things mentioned above. When affiliates send buyer traffic your way, they can sign up to your mailing list to get the download link for the digital info product in their emails upon payment. This way, others promote your site, business and digital info product, while you get buyer traffic populating your mailing list...

    Contact organizations, groups and other social networks based in your target countries and areas. Offer your services, i.e. Wordpress site setup for them to have their own sites, improvements done to their existing sites ,content for their sites and offline/online newsletters, etc., in exchange for banner and text ads promoting your site, content and digital info product...

    Hmmm... What else? Basic ones: Content submissions to article directories/blog networks/document-sharing networks/press release directories/video directories and forum marketing among others. Lots of other more creative methods than these basic traffic generation campaigns, so back to the drawing board...

    All traditional traffic methods still work if you use it the right way. I.e Press release, forum marketing and article marketing. Take it to the next level by implementing a Panda proof backlinking . If you're not lazy your traffic will soar .

    For the majority of my traffic, I use SEO. Although it isn't free anymore, it was in the beginning when I only had a couple of sites. Backlinking for only a couple sites takes a lot less time than it does for more, so I started outsourcing and purchased some software to help with automation. But, in the beginning it was completely free through manual blog commenting, article marketing, social bookmarking, etc...

      If you count your time as being worth anything at all, SEO isn't free.

    You are right, content is still the KING and blogging is one surefire way to get traffic your way. The other way is creating backlinks through article marketing.
