In today’s world of home internet business, there is one key to building a home internet business, the development of traffic to your web site or blog. If your goal is to make money online through internet marketing, then you cannot overlook the importance of this area of business planning. Internet marketing strategies are formulated around traffic generating plans. Affiliate marketing lives and dies based on the internet marketing strategy of site traffic.

While many strategies do exist, and many companies will charge large fees to accomplish traffic generation to sites, there are seven, often overlooked, easily accomplished ways to build site traffic.

Write articles. This is an incredible tool for driving traffic, and there is huge demand for articles with good content. Well-written, relevant articles can net quite a bit of activity to your web site. Don't forget to add your URL in your byline, or often referred to as your signature line or signature box. Articles should be 500 words but not exceed 1,000 words in length. You can send articles to sites like: Article City, GoArticles, Submit Your Articles and Ezine Articles. It’s much easier to obtain a software submission service which can help you manage your submissions. This article will be sent out via software to 84 publishers via software and the entire process will take less than 15 minutes. The publicity, and article usage will be ongoing for months to come.

There are many publishers, and the quality of the publishers do vary. Some publishers are good editors, and some are not. Some publish accurate copies of the originally submitted text, and some publishers may publish with errors in the article. It’s important to watch for articles published with publisher created errors or omissions and not use lazy publishers again as they can damage your image in the long haul.

Do you have trouble writing articles? No problem! There are many article directories which can provide content rich articles to you for free.


Start a blog and then once you do, blog, blog, blog. Most free blogs such as Wordpress and Google’s Blogger.com are free and blog entries automatically go onto a RSS feed. Start a few blog’s on different themes. Start commenting on other people's blogs, linking your comments to your site or adding them to your blogroll.


Create a signature line. Do you have one? If you don't, create one. Believe it or not, people do follow these links. You'll be amazed how many folks read email or article signature lines. Everyone should have one and change it several times a year, depending on what we're doing or promoting.


Set up a social networking site using Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace, or Squidoo. It's free and easy to do, just don't forget the all-important link back to your site! It’s also important to be a participant on these sites. Establishing a presence is not enough. These sites are created for social interaction, so interact, or find the software that can help you interact.


Load a video on YouTube and 57 other video sites (the rest listed on my Red Hot Internet Publicity blog). Videos only need to be 2 to 3 minutes in length and should be scripted based on 75 words per minute. Some video sites will pay for your video based on the number of visitors to your link ( $100.00 for every 1000 to 2000 visitors) so be aware of this and be prepared to drive visitors to these links for extra revenue.


Buy keywords and Keyword phrases at PPC's (pay per click search engines) such as Yahoo! Search Marketing (formerly Overture) and MSN AdCenter. Google is the fastest PPC account to set up. Write your title and description, choose your keywords, make a deposit and you're up and running. Set a daily maximum budget, check your income and expenses frequently until you ensure that the former consistently exceeds the latter.

Keywords will always continue to be the golden secret to people finding you on the internet. Whether you use PPC’s, write content based articles for your home based business, as long as you want to make money online in a home based business opportunity, you will want to pay attention to your keywords. The use of keywords will remain vital to any internet marketing strategy,. or part of any larger multiple internet marketing strategies.

Grab hold of the excellence life has to offer.
