        When you post a quote like this above, be sure to back it up with why next time.

        When you say something is bad without giving all details about why it's bad (according to your opinion), it's just as bad as gossip for no good reason. Gossip is for high school girls with low self esteem and people who don't feel good about themselves. I'm guessing that doesn't fit into who you are based on your title here on the forum.

        I happen to use the fantastic tool every single week and it works great. I've been using it for a while and I have no complaints about it at all.

        I was introduced to this tool by a friend who also uses it to make $25,000 per month from one site.

        This tool has saved me months of work.

        If you can't say exactly what is so BAD about it, why even write anything at all? I mean, take a look at your comment. Nice choice of verbiage to explain the negative points about a product.

        Back up your comment with all of your reasons and how you've used it. I'd really like to hear what you have to say. Make yourself look good.

        I'm guessing you've never even used this product. I bet if you have, you'd be singing a different tune.

        I'm not about to promote something I have not used and doesn't work incredibly well, so please don't come at anything I talk about unless you can back it up with all the reasons why. I don't appreciate this kind of rude commenting, and I don't think you would either.

        Now please, make yourself sound intelligent and make an intelligent list of all the negatives about The Best Spinner according to your experience with using this product. Don't quote something you've read before. Let's hear about your experiences with how bad it is.

        BTW: I'm looking at both of your products ... if you spent a little more time creating a better, cleaner landing page, you could probably convert more sales. I would even redo the sound on your other squeeze page. I couldn't even hear what you were saying with my speakers turned up full blast. I'm guessing that you added the text on top because you didn't want to re-record it. You're losing sales from those squeeze pages, guaranteed. Put a little more effort up front and you'll get more out of your products.

        There, I just gave you a thousand dollar tip. It could even be worth more. See what a nice guy I am?

        I'm here to help people, and help you. Not steer people in the wrong direction or make rude comments that I can't back up.

          Ummmm nice rant....

          But why do you think the panda slap came out.

          You think google loves your jibberish articles. No.... it never did.

          In fact you are part of teh problem not part of the solution.

          Google is after original content, and high quality stuff that can actually help value the life of its readers. How is your jibberish rubbish doing that.... great job.

          Now jibberish man, with your jibberish comments had to post and clear it up. You can call me unintelligent all you want, but the warriors who understand the lastest panda slap, will be reading your comment with one eyebrow raised.

        masmoola,

        I use textual links when doing backlinking. I have used Sick Marketing tool to spin the textual links and other automated backlinking tools in the past. Unique Article Wizard is another service that I have used to build another niche blog. I have received their articles but never actually posted articles to their site. The Best Spinner has been a tool that I have used also in the past. It appears that someone on this thread doesn't care for it, lol. I can see this as a good tool if you are working targeting keywords and backlinks and not really worried about how the article is spun. As we know they don't always make sense when they are spun. Thanks for the tip on distributing my article through UAW. I didn't know if they would accept spun articles.

          celente,

          I can appreciate what masmoola is trying to say in terms of backlinking. I do think the days of spinning content has quickly come to an end. It's certainly not an ideal way of driving traffic to my website. In terms of Google wanting fresh content. You have to remember that the Panda update targeted some fresh content sites that are still trying to recover. The panda update dropped their traffic overnight. I think these updates are a great way for Google to force people into a pay per advertising model. Whatever way you spin this (no pun intended) these large companies are out to make money. The new business model for Google isn't to clean up the internet because we have too many junk sites and people are complaining. I am sure there is another revenue generating model behind these updates.

          You are right. They don't always read perfectly. I think it also depends on how well you spin the text, and the article being spun. If you are very selective about the synonyms you choose, you can create a decent doc each time.

          It's nice that The Best Spinner actually saves everyone's synonyms when new ones are added to give you more selections. That's why you have to log in each time you use this service, so they can save your newly added synonyms.

          I used The Best Spinner the other day to spin two small paragraphs 75 times for video tutorials I created. I had a guy from freelancer translate the audio from 75 video tutorials and I had to create an opener and closer for each translation with my keywords for SEO on my pages. Since they were only audio translations from videos that would be watched instead, it really didn't matter a whole lot how the text read. I probably saved about 8 hours or more of work from having to rewrite the same paragraph 75 times. One click and a new paragraph.

            Yes, there is certainly value to translating them into audio or video. I think writing articles is my least favorite marketing chore. Are you really getting many views on videos? I haven't been that impressed with any marketing videos I have posted on YouTube. I find the view count is very low. That being said; I really don't have a good channel with good PR or backlinking.

              I actually have these videos only on my site and in flash. Not on YouTube.

              The only way I would use video on YouTube is to obtain a few backlinks to my sites.

              I will be using a tool that I don't want to mention (for fear of all the backlash) to submit multiple videos to multiple video sites this coming month, but only for obtaining backlinks and not for views.

              Trying to get views on a video from YouTube is another ballgame that I'd rather avoid. I don't recommend it because that's not the easiest way to obtain traffic.

              I'm still a believer in educating yourself on what all of the top Internet Marketers do, and then use their best tips.

      To complement this, you should go for paid ads if you have the budget. It works faster. Before paying for ads, you should however lay a solid foundation - good landing page, user friendly platform, quick to load pages etc.

      I hope you got the main gist.

    I think one of the fastest ways to get traffic is to use a press release. Additionally, adding social buttons to your posts can help your site's popularity grow within a given network.

        Okay, I'm going to give you one of my connections. I don't normally give these away because I work hard to find them and I offer these in my coaching program.

        If you go to freelancer and find the username submitbuzz, they will submit your pr's to 90 sites and give you screenshots of all their submissions.

        I double checked their work and they did exactly what they said they would do.

    Doing what you're doing right now.

    Forum posting is an old, but tried and true, method. Just join a handful of forums / groups related to your niche and link to your site in your signature. Make a handful of quality posts on each and you'll start to see some traffic coming in. It's a good way to get a small flow of traffic while you're working on your SEO.

    The fastest way to get traffic is to pay for it.

    Adwords, FB and a bunch of other PPC networks out there will happily send you traffic all day long, if you have the budget.

      When it comes to submitting PR's, you're more interested in building the backlinks from keyword phrases as textual links, so spinning the PR's won't matter to the hand full of people who will be reading your PR's. I will explain this better further down.

      If you go after certain keyword phrases as textual links in those PR's, you will get better rank from Google and your actual site will move up quickly for the keyword phrases you go after. It won't matter one bit about how the PR reads if you're going after keyword textual links in your PR's.

      I get very little traffic from the PR's on the sites they are submitted to, just better ranking for the keywords I go after.

      Do you know what a textual link is? Just for example sake, let's say you're selling stoves and your PR is about stoves ... a textual link in your PR would be "buy stoves." That "buy stoves" link would be directed to your sales page URL, thus giving you a textual backlink, which is much more powerful than a regular URL link.

      You could actually go after a couple different textual links in your PR's and articles.

      Now, when someone types in the keyword phrase "buy stoves" your site will be much better ranked for that keyword phrase. If you build enough of those textual backlinks across the board, you can hit page one of Google.

      Some keyword phrases are more difficult to go after and take more backlinks and time to get your site to page one of Google. But, once you get there on page one, it doesn't take much to stay there. Just maintenance.

      The Best Spinner can put a good spin on an article or press release and actually make it read better than the original after you spin it, and do that every time if you know how to put a good spin on an article.

      If you submit thousands of spun articles through Unique Article Wizard, you're only interested in building the backlinks, so again, it doesn't matter about the content. Plus, again, if you put a good spin on the article, it will read better than the original.

      When you spin articles and submit them to the directories through Unique Article Wizard, you are only interested in going after keyword phrase textual backlinks. Again, it doesn't matter how your article reads.

      Can you argue with hundreds of thousands of visitors to your squeeze page every month from building backlinks through spun articles on Unique Article Wizard using keyword phrase textual links in your articles? You are getting those visitors directly to your site when they type in the keyword phrase in Google and your site is on page one. You're not getting the visitors from your spun articles, so it really wouldn't matter how they read.

      Obviously, don't spin articles you want on your personal blog.

      If you have 90 different PR's going out with your keyword textual links, Google will see them as 90 different articles and give you more credit for the backlinks on each article.

      If you have 90 of the same PR, you will get one back link because Google will see the other 89 as duplicates.

      If you plan on submitting 90 press releases to 90 different PR sites, would you rather rewrite all of those 90 press releases yourself, so that they are all different enough to keep Google from noticing them as duplicate content. Or would you rather spend a couple hours putting a good spin on the PR and knock out 90 different PR's to gain way more textual backlinks and better ranking for your keyword phrases?

      If you have all the time in the world, you could just sit at home all day and do it the natural way, and hope you get somewhere in the next, say, 50 years or so.

      You did say you want FAST traffic, right?

      You could probably get a decent flow of traffic within the next three months by going after certain keyword phrases that bring traffic. Use the Google keywords tool to find keywords.

    I am going to go against one piece of advice and tell you DO NOT used spun articles. Use fresh content - even if you aren't putting up as much, your customers will appreciate the valuable info. To keep your business growing, always rely on quality in lieu of quantity. If you have a blog, sign up on pingomatic and every time you put up a new piece of content, ping it. Then tweet it, bookmark it and backlink it. Then submit it to submission sites. Don't waste your time with directories.

      Granted I don't use spun articles myself, but coming from a SEO background I understand the methodology and it has nothing to do with trying to please customers. The whole purpose of submitting the spun PR is to get links and the indirect traffic that creates from search traffic, nothing else. The real customers are the visitors that find your site though search engines. Whether or not sites that accept spun articles will provide a quality link to send much link juice to your site is another question though.

    I've wasted a lot of money on PPC with little results. If you stop paying for it, the traffic stops.

    You'd better have a good product with a great sales page to pay for traffic through PPC. You'll more than likely also need a lot of upsells in your sales funnel to recoup your investment with PPC.

    If you take the longer, slower road of building traffic from SEO and backlinks, your site stays on top longer and you don't have any money coming out of pocket, or very little.

    What would you rather have, a thousand visitors per month costing .30 to .80 cents per visit, or a thousand free visitors per month with only your time invested? What's a visitor worth to you? Have you figured that out yet?

    If you need fast visitors, you will probably have to pay for them.

    If you have the patience and time on your side, you can save money and gain almost free traffic.

    If you have a great product that you own, there is a chance you could do a JV partnership with someone who has a large list. I don't want to get all into JV partnerships in here. You'll have to learn about JV's on your own.

      PPC has it's place, especially with squeeze pages. If you are using it to promote an informational article, then you are probably going to waste a lot of money.

      Don't use PPC unless you know what you're doing. But, when you figure it out, it can be a goldmine of fast traffic and cash.

        I agree. PPC was anyone's game years ago when you could get .05 and .10 cent clicks. But, now it's a tough game to play.

        It can cost $30 to $70 to get one sale with PPC and you'd better have a great up sell after the first order to make a profit.

        Most affiliate products don't offer that big of a profit or up sells for people. You just about need to have your own line of high priced products and one heck of a sales funnel to make any real money.

    If you want to generate traffic to your website for free than find forums that relate to your product/service. Then register with them and start posting backlinks to your website with useful information.

    For example, my blog is about video games so I will join a gaming forum and start a thread about a game called League of Legends, talk about it and link my blog for a review

    This works really well but is time consuming

      It's a site full of CPA offers that I have created. I don't really have the budget for PPC when the leads for the offer don't pay much. I guess I am back to free traffic sources. The pages are static unless I add and remove offers so fresh content really isn't there. This whole google panda update doesn't really put me in a position for SEO. Organic traffic now scares the cr$& out of me. I am not sure article writing will help in this case either. I might be back to trying to increase my SERP by backlinking high PR sites.

    It really depends on the type of project we are talking about. If it's a large and long term project you should be careful with any gray hat SEO methods and automated link building software. You have to simulate natural site growth. At this point the quality of links is way more important than quantity.

    SEO is not free and it's a long and hard process. That is the reason why it's a good idea to combine SEO with PPC. Especially in the beginning when you expect immediate results. The problem with PPC however, is the fact that Adwords and Facebook are quite expensive while 2 tier alternatives do not offer decent traffic quality. You need to find a network with the most optimal quality / price ratio and wide range of bidding tools. Once you do that and optimize your PPC traffic flow you'll have quality and affordable PPC traffic until you strat getting enough organic clicks.

    Article submission, press releases and forum signatures used to work but these methods are not that efficient. You can still do all that but also consider the following:

    - Attractive female profiles on social networks posting links to your updates
    - Hot Youtube videos
    - Satelite niche microsites (you can build dozens each targeting 1 specific key phrase. Some of you satelites should be WP based)

    Also make sure:
    - your content including all pictures is 100% original
    - you have enogh content and regular updates

    I believe that in oder to drive traffic to your site you need to have a product or service that people want, a product or service that not everyone is already trying to exploit, and you must have a fighting chance with the keywords you choose. I personally was using Wordtracker, but now have moved to the Google keyword analyzer, and then I use Market Samurai to do a deep dive into my competition.

    Your competition must be manageable!

    If you choose to compete against the mega giants in the IM field, I wish you good luck. I have not had any success marketing products that everyone and their brother is trying to promote.

    Find a successful Niche and stick with it. When you find it, it will hit you like a ton of bricks.

    just to add what others have said...try social networking like facebook or twitter...start from your own account and work your way up...

    another rapid way is to use pastebin.com

    it'll give you almost instantly in seconds...and another method is using facebook's PPC...not that hard as everyone thinks and not that easy either...

    or just wait till I release my WSO

      I agree those are good methods that I am also familiar with because of various WSOs. I haven't heard of pastebin.com though I will have to take a look. The site I am trying to promote is a CPA site with not much return on the leads as you know. I was trying to do the cheapest method as well as the fastest. LOL.

        haha hitting the thanks button might help

        anyway,

        pastebin is like a viral sharing online service...so maybe you can pull some visitors up there...

        cheapest method is probably using your own fb acc.....and you could add some like/share scripts to give it some boost...

        fb's PPC could be very cheap...last time when I've partnered up with my buddy...we spent around $70 and got around 10,000 targeted fans in 2.5 hours...

        could take a little while to tackle...but maybe give it a try with free vouchers

            When ever I use FB ads, I start my bid at around .20 cents if they recommend bidding at .80 and above. My bids usually go through too. I've even had bids go through at .10 cents.

            The nice thing about using freelancer, is you get to thoroughly check out the people you hire. If they don't have a work history, I usually don't hire them. Also, be patient when submitting a job on freelancer, I've had bids come in 4 and 5 days later that worked out great.

                The only thing I can think of that's really changing IM dramatically, is Google's changes.

                I think new marketing methods come up, but for the most part people are still doing basically most of the same things they've been doing for years.

                It used to be you could buy a domain name with the keyword phrase in it and have that domain on page one in no time for that keyword phrase. But now, that's not the case since just a few months ago. The nice thing, is that you can get pretty much any domain name on page one if you know the secrets and work hard. If you don't know and practice the secrets, you'll be lost in the dark walking on broken glass with bare feet. No fun.

                Learn the secrets and get hyper focused. Distractions can really suck up your time and keep you from success. Focus on one thing and don't spread yourself all over the place, or you'll never be as successful.

                Be careful who you listen to. I have close friends who are extremely successful IM'ers, and they've taught me almost everything I know. When I see them using a tool and how much money they make as a result, I'm using that same tool and I will talk about it ... in here and everywhere else.

    I work to get my new site on the first page of Google first. It usually takes me 2 weeks or less to get on the 1st page, depending on the niche and keywords. Then I'll test the waters over at Facebook and buy some traffic over there to see if my site converts.

    Then I'll do web 2.0 strategies.

    The bitter truth is if you want traffic FAST to your site, you are going to have to pay for it. Do some JVs and grow your list, that's how I started.

    Hope this helps and good luck to you.

    Later,

    I don't like the jibberish and I think that it's filling the Internet with garbage. There are fiverr gigs that prepare more complex spintax for you to use in your spinner - so I see no reason why you shouldn't invest $5 and get spintax that will produce unique articles in perfect English everytime.

    Then what would be the benefit - the precious backlink, an article that Google loves AND that people will read, understand, enjoy and click on your link.

    I don't know, but it sounds to me from what I read in the forums here, that this combination is better than just the backlink. What you think?

    If you are looking to establish some CRAZY traffic, here's what I would recommend!

    P.S. My traffic increased 564.1% in 6 days using these techniques..

    1. Facebook Groups
    : Join many different, similar-niche groups and post updates linking new content whenever it's created. (Only post to 3-4 groups per half hour to avoid Facebook's "bad list.")
    2. Tweet: Tweet 3-4 times per day with a shortened URL to your new content. (Once ever 2 hours to not appear a spammer...)
    3. Forum Marketing: Answer 2-3 questions per day on a forum that is similar to your niche. This brands YOU as a leader and with a nice signature box linking back to your site, this can generate some nice, interested traffic! (If you are into online entrepreneurship like myself, WarriorForum is a great place to answer questions and receive some nice traffic!)
    4. Youtube Video: Post a short video promoting your new content to Youtube. (Seeing as Youtube is the most visited video site on the web, this can create mass traffic!)
    5. Tribe Syndication: Have your content syndicated thousands of times through a tribe and your content will easily get to the front page of Google--Which is a MASS traffic generator in itself. (I personally have my content syndicated to more than 700 different sites EVERY day using Tribepro. And it's only 10 bucks!)
    6. Article Marketing Robot: This tool will submit your new content to more than 300 different article directories! (This will boost your traffic ridiculously..)
    7. Facebook PPC: Although this can be costly, it can enable some INSANE traffic and good, quality leads! (I have a friend that is making crazy money doing it..)
    8. Blog Commenting: Comment on like-minded user's blogs. Simply put! lol.
    9. Tags in posts: Seemless as they may be, put relevant tags in ALL your posts. Search engines LOVE this!
    10. Google Keyword Tool: This will help you name your post something that will be searched thousands of times a month! (I have reached the front page of Google in 20 hours for "Onlywire Review" using this! Live proof!)

    If you use these tricks for every new piece of content you create, your blog's traffic will increase EXPONENTIALLY.

    Like I said, I use almost every single one of these techniques and in doing so, my blog's traffic increased 564.1% my first week..

    So go out there and generate some MASS Traffic! (Just dont pass up my Google ranks! lol)

    HOPE THAT HELPS!

    I will say that my experience with paid traffic has been dismal, but I think the product or service that you have to offer makes a big difference. With a small budget you can test this theory on your promotion, and see if you think the ROI is worth it. CPC is cheap to test. I do think that your keywords and the competition against those keywords is paramount to your long-term traffic results.
