  • Hi, my best free traffic source ever is video marketing at first side, and Squidoo at second.
    But SEO is always at first place.

    See you,

    There are plenty of products teaching about this in the WSO section of the forum. There are many ways to achieve free traffic.

    The best way I think to start off is to have a link in your signature file in a forum such as this and just be helpful to people so that they click on your link to see what else you do.

    You can target the traffic by selecting which questions you answer and your own area of expertise.

    There are many other ways though .. this is just a good one to start with.

    Hope this helps

    Article syndication/guest posting - Hands down the most targeted and best converting traffic that I've ever seen. 80% of the people on my buyers list are acquired using this method.

    Seo traffic is good but doesn't seem to convert that well for me.

    You're only as good as your last sentence...

    There are lots of different ways, but one of my favorites is through Yahoo Answers. With millions of people actively looking for solutions in hundreds of different niches, it is a source of ultra targeted buying traffic. If you use it properly it can be a goldmine

    For those people who are saying SEO, SEO is a big term. Your social media, video marketing...everything today falls under SEO.

    If you have to choose only one, I would say Guest Posting (in other words, article syndication).

    Even easier, forum posting...see it is working for you right now!

    I agree with forum posting. You can get started with this right now. Second to that is Yahoo answers. It works really well when you find a question to something you are selling on your site and post a quick answer on Yahoo and have a detailed answer on your site.

          [This is a re-posting]

          I just copied one reply of mine i wrote few minutes back and just pasting it back here, as I think it also will answer your question and will be very helpful to you too.....

          If you are really ready to work hard and take action, then I can suggest a resource that's far better any $100 or $500 course. And the best part is...Its free.

          Check out: The Challenge

          Its one of the best training that will teach you to make passive income online. But the deal is that you just have to follow what they say and just do it. Taking action is the key here. Do not jump to anything else. Stick to it and give it your all. I know it because it has helped me get started..... Whatever they teach you, it flat out works
          And do not think I am giving you some affiliate link in here. I am not. I do not get a penny of recommending you this. If you still have doubts, do not click my link above. Just go to Google and search for "The Challenge" and join them..Just get started. They are simply awesome!

          And as far as the best free traffic is concern, the best according to me are: SEO, Forum marketing, Article Marketing, Video marketing, Blogging, Guest blogging, Content Syndication, Social networks like Facebook & Twitter, Yahoo answers, Giveaways etc...

          Hope that helps...

    My favorite is blogging, because it's the quickest way to get on page 1 of the search engines. I don't know about you but when I am ready to purchase anything on the internet, I search for it via Google as I believe most people do. Therefoer, I think SEO is absolutely the top of the list for free traffic generation!

    I'm willing to try almost any traffic method that doesn't involve SEO/getting traffic from Google (that's always been the hardest for me to opt in and convert, in every single niche in which I have a site, so as well as being very precarious, unreliable and subject to algorithm-changes, it's also always been my worst-quality traffic). For me, therefore, SEO is the absolute bottom of the list.

    But my best free traffic method, by far, is this one, which can attract such big floods of highly targeted traffic that once you have it up and running, it really makes anything else seem like a mere afterthought, by comparison.

    I can't even find my website on Google when I type it's name, I've built a list of more than 1,000 people in the last 45 days however using Kindle Publishing! It took me a total of Four Hours spread out in two days two write a book and edit it and another thirty minutes to put it on Kindle. Then, it took me 10 hours spread out over two weeks to get that book selling by talking it up in forums, blogs, and the such. And this was converting traffic, more than 200 people bought my product...

    I'm getting paid for my traffic--not just from my traffic! It's better than free, it's Free Plus+ if you can do it right

    Seo / social media are those 2 things that you can do by yourself so you don't have to pay someone else. They can be really effective.

    My favorite free traffic method has to be using my personal blog

    The great thing about using your personal blog is that the subscribers that you generate from your blog are lazer targeted and already know who you are most of the time because they have more than likely checked out your "about me page"

    So this increases your open rates and responsiveness of your list

    I include a lot of link bait on my site too which works really well

    It does take time but once you build a bit of momentum it`s downhill from there

    I just went into my google analytics traffic stats this morning and noticed that on average 40% of my traffic each day is from returning visitors

    returning visitors is very important because it means your engaging with them and they like your content

    so if you don`t have a personal IM blog...get one

    it`s not something which will send you massive traffic over the next few days but look at the bigger picture

    once you build the traffic it will always be there and it`s also great for branding purposes too

    Definitely SEO. I do it on my own sites and my clients and the free traffic from Google is always the highest. Of course there are other ways to do it but from my experience you can really leverage if you know how to do this right. Check out searchengineland, searchenginewatch, searchenginehjournal as well which are also good sources of how to gain free traffic from Google. Good luck and let me know if you have any questions and I will be happy to help :-))
