Hello everyone,

I have built a website for doing affiliate marketing. I am a newbie in online marketing and don't know exactly where to start :confused:. Right now, i don't have enough money to do any kind of advertising or website promotions which requires money. But, I need to get traffic for my site.

So, i need some help from you. I hope you can spare some time for suggesting me. Please, tell me how can i promote and get traffic for my site for free?

    Well you can do blog posts, article writing forum signature links, build aa squidoo lens and a hub page. These are all free alternatives but you must put a little work and be consistant at it.

    Hi Ehsan.

    What you need to do is find a strategy that fits with your current available resources...

    If you can write, then a strategy that involves the use of written content would be advisable. Without knowing your skills and available resources, nobody here can give you a strong answer.

    There are a whole plethora of promotional methods that you can utilise for free, but each has it's own requirements outside of a cash investment, as I described in the example above.

    Peace

    Jay

      Article writing is a great way to advertise for free. When you write an article, submit it to the different article directories, such as Ezine, Hubpages, etc. The more content you have out in the Internet the better. It's like having real estate out there because once it's out there it stays. If you consistenly put content out there it is very viral. It will spread a lot. Make sure you use a keyword search tool to identify keywords that are going to bring you traffic before you start writing the article.

      Also, posting on forums, such as this one is a good promotion tool.

      There are many free advertising sites as well. I get a lot of results from ViralURL.

      Hope this helps.

      i'll just add to that - other social networking sites as well as twitter. Answer relevant questions on Yahoo answers and Wiki answers and leave a link to your site. Participate in relevant forums with link in your sig (like you've done here), find blogs, ezine articles etc in your niche and leave well versed and relevant comments, once again linking to your site!

    You should research article marketing (Bum Method) , SEO strategies, video strategies (Youtube traffic), social networks traffic (Myspace, Twitter, Facebook).

    It takes time for free traffic to build, but if you are willing to put the effort into building free traffic it's surely worth it.

    Hi Eshan,

    Welcome aboard! I would also mention things like Yahoo Answers, where you can answer questions in your niche, and use your URL for the "source". That also gives you some good Google juice, as Yahoo is obviously a high PR site.

    Keep plugging away!

    Cheers, Rich

    -You can give away a free product. If the product is of interest to your audience, this should result in many visitors, plus you can start to build a list from it.

    -Exchange links with other people in your niche

    -Write posts with great headlines that capture peoples' attention.

    If your looking at promoting your website for free I strongly suggest learning all about SEO Search Engine Optimization and doing so on your website right away. This is one of the best ways at developing website traffic for free.

    Here are some other great ways at building website traffic for free:

    1. Article Marketing like Ezinearticles
    2. Blog Commenting
    3. Submit your website to directories and search engines
    4. Video Distribution
    5. Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, YouTube
    6. Newsletters
    7. classified ads
    8. Plenty of Pictures and Images as they come up in image search results
    9. Link Exchange
    10. Forum Marketing - Good one - Warrior Forum

    These are some of the ways you can start getting website traffic for free. When you can I suggest using these above methods along with Google Adwords, Yahoo and Microsoft AdCenter to generate and increase your traffic. When you use combinations of free traffic along with paid traffic you'll see some great results. These will surely help you get started.

    I also have just begun marketing an affiliate product and one of the methods of getting traffic that I am using is submitting press releases to free websites(i-newswire, pr.com, etc.).

    If you enter "press release" in the search option, I had made a thread and got some great responses that gave me different sources on how to write press releases and lists of the free submission sites.

    Hope this helped!
