You can boost your web site traffic today day, not tomorrow, today. It doesn’t have to be expensive and if you have got a few funds then by all means out source at sites like E-lancer to get people to do some of the work for you.

Blogging - blogging is a great way to boost traffic to your site. Michael Cheney taught me how to set up a blog properly to get traffic. If you don’t already have a blog I recommend you set one up under its own domain name (with relevant keywords in it) and then install wordpress. You can set it up to automatically to send a ping to blog directories and blog sites. There are plenty of them you can find them by doing a search on Google or if you would like more traffic boosting knowledge then from one of Michael’s products.

Forum posting - most subjects or niches on the web now have their very own forum related to it and you can join them mostly for free. Make good posts that people are interested in amongst the popular threads and you will get people clicking on your link.

Article writing - whilst some of the better article directories review your article before they post it to ensure quality some don’t, and that means you can get an article with a link to your site visible the same day. Other people pick up on them and put them on your sites all with your author bio box at the bottom linking to your site.

Digg it - Digg is a great site with high page rank and high traffic. Boost your own traffic today by placing links to all of your website pages. If you don’t have a web site then set up a free blog and point traffic there.

Email broadcast - you can use some one else’s list if you don’t have your own. Join www.listdotcom.com for example and you can send out an email. To be honest I find responses are low, but better if I offer something for free.

Joint Ventures - politely ask another list owner in your business if you can form a mutually beneficial partnership and let them promote to your list, or put a banner on your web site. In exchange you get to do the same, but emailing to their list is the most beneficial thing to do and this can bring you a boost to your internet traffic. Make sure you aren’t in direct competition with each other. To use a popular example, if you knew a business that sold gold clubs and you sold golf shoes then you have a product that will be of interest but not in direct competition.
