What are your main traffic sources?

12 years ago

YouTube and Facebook - combined. Post video on YouTube, then post it on Facebook. I also incorporate my blog and post the video on my blog too. That way, one piece of content gets distributed to different outlets and gets better exposure.

Paid traffic is king for me. Google Adwords. Bing Ads (also powers Yahoo Ads). Some Facebook Ads. Good luck to you.

Facebook ads. Almost the whole world is there now. But you need to capture emails because people there are not searching for your products, they are there to entertain themselves. Follow up, follow up, follow up.

This alone can take all your advertising budget but then if you create a FB page, then it may go viral and you can get even more exposure. Trick is to tweak and tweak your campaign until you get the lowest possible price per click.

Forums. I've been getting a lot of traffic from forums where I'm a 1000+ posts member.

Get to know the forum owner and they're more likely to overlook a .sig full of promotional stuff (but even then, don't overdo it).

Craigslist actually brings me a lot. Since I'm legitimately offering them something.

Otherwise solo ads and other ads. Currently working on POF for the first time, excited to try it out. (I know I'm way behind the times with this xD)

Mine are Youtube, Hubpages, Clixsense, and Facebook. Currently those deliver me the most traffic. But my main (everyday) method is by using drop cards and business cards.

I'm still amazed that business cards still generate leads for me. By the way, I have a few articles published on Hubpages that consistently rank on the first page of Google. One of which appears in the top three results.

These hubs were published in 2011-12. When I search for various topics I still see the hubs of others appearing on the first page.

AdWords is very hard to beat for highly-targeted, IMMEDIATE traffic. I've been using it for many years.

Of course... the downside is that it can be quite expensive. That's why you MUST do your break-even math to determine if it's likely to be profitable for your specific product.

I would also like to point out my traffic sources
Love google
Then facebook (But I don't think facbook ads are good enough as not seeing any good targetted traffic from there I looks like I have ads on a games site where kids plays and click our ads

Yes forum signatures are sending good targeted visitors that's right

So I would give 7/10 to forum signature links for traffic but for this you needs to be consistent in forum discussions.
