Paid Solutions to Get More Web Traffic
Everyone wants free traffic. For most of us the reality is that at some point we need to pay to gain web traffic. The good news is that, with careful planning, you do not need to spend a fortune.
- Next to the major search engines the major directories such as Yahoo are huge sources of traffic. List in paid inclusion on line directories e.g. Yahoo (not always/usually recommended)
- List in your local directories. e.g. In the UK
- Applegate
- Yell
- Touch
- Thompson local - to name but a few. Wherever you live you will find lots of people willing to list your site for a fee.
- Advertise
- Pay per click PPC
- Google - the leader by far
- Overture
- Off line - newspapers, magazines, television, radio,...
- Ezines
- Solo Ads
- Banners
- Sponsorship
- Buy 'opt-in' traffic - beware of spam
- Buy links from very high google page ranked and high traffic sites
And this list doesn't even begin to scratch the surface.
For immediate results there is nothing to beat PPC. You can chose your keywords, post your ads and be gaining clicks within 15 minutes. It will be no surprise to learn that all 3 of the major search engines have their own highly sophisticated PPC solutons.
The grand daddy of PPC was overture, now owned by Yahoo.
But if you want to score big with PPC today turn your attention to Google.
