Generate Traffic to your website with WEB 2.0

Hi!

And welcome to the wonderful world of WEB 2.0

When I first began working online, one of the early ways to get traffic to my website was with ‘surfing’ on Traffic Exchanges (T/E’s). That worked well in the early days as the timers allowed your whole page to come up and even sound if you were able to make that happen. With many of today’s T/E’s and their extremely short timers, you’re lucky if anyone ever remembers you. The use of Splash Pages or Gateway or Landing Pages is mandatory… or you will NEVER accomplish much. That was… until the advent of WEB 2.0

With very little effort on your part, using just a few of the many Social Marketing sites available to you, generating a following and creating a flow of “Targeted” traffic to you website is actually pretty easy! Some of you may think that the Social Marketing sites are what teens and twenty-somethings use to gossip on. Well maybe that does happen some but there is PLENTY of room for Social Marketing! Marketing for your business in a social way. And, if the presidential candidates have Facebook accounts… Why shouldn’t you?

That’s right and also is a great place to start. You may not know WHAT to say or how to say it just yet… but I’d suggest that you go over there right away (if you haven’t already) and claim your space on Facebook. When you do, you’ll be asked for a username. My suggestion is to choose a username that describes what YOU do online! Make it catchy and indicative of YOUR business or service or whatever… but claim it now. And, if you sign up for other Social Marketing sites… use that same name and people will start to remember who you are and what you’re about! Do it. Do it TODAY!

In closing, there are a lot of sites you can join. A list will follow in a post coming soon. Just remember to include your “hottest” Social Marketing link in your ‘Sig File’ so people will go look for you!

More soon,
