There is one very important rule in making money with your site: A constant flow of web traffic. These are a few of the top three methods of building free traffic to your website.
- Exchange Links - This is a very effective method. Almost every website has at least one outbound link on it. Many site owners are willing to exchange links with another relevant site. A major prerequisite in exchanging links with other websites is having the same niche.
- Make and Submit Articles - Create articles which are related to the topic of your site. Informative how to articles tend to work best. Add a resource box at the bottom of your article with a link to your website and a little bit about yourself. Submit these articles to several online article directories. Your article will not only be displayed on the article directory giving you a related link, other site owners have the ability to use your article, as long as they keep your backlink intact, giving you links on relevant websites for free.
- Join Discussion Forums - All this takes, is a little bit of time. Share your expertise with a few discussion forums and it can do wonders for your traffic. On most forums, you can add a link to your signature which shows up below your posts. Place a backlink to your site, and make informative posts in the forum, and people will click your link to check out your site.
