If you’ve been on the Internet much at all you probably know that traffic is the key to generating sales and sales are the keys to generating money. Traffic is a very profitable thing, but your traffic has to be targeted traffic. It can be a bunch of hits that don’t intend to purchase your products. This also means that you should avoid any traffic generating scheme that seems too good to be true, because it probably is.
There are several ways that traffic can generate you money, including:
• Increased Sales – The more people you attract, the better your chances are of sellingyour products or services. The more products or services you sell, the more money you
will make.
• Build You Lists of Prospects – Mailing lists are a great way to keep people informedabout your business. By generating traffic you can generate mailing lists as well.
• Expose Your Brand or Your Service’s Popularity – The more traffic you can attract,the more people are going to know about you. They will then pass on information and
praise about your business to other people who will then visit your website and hopefully
purchase your products as well.
Plain and simple – if you have no traffic, you will make no money. This is the way the world works when it comes to business and this is especially true for an online business.
The Two Strategies of Traffic Generation
There are two ways that you can generate traffic on the Internet. They are very simple and concise and include:
Free Traffic
Paid Traffic
Free traffic is not entirely free, as it will still require an investment of time. Also, there is no guarantee that either way will generate money, but they are where you want to start and they are both very powerful ways of generating traffic if you used appropriately.
Paid traffic can be useful depending on the type of product that you are selling. If you are in a Google Adwords program, you can use paid advertising and generate traffic in a very effective manner. People who click on your advertisements are likely to be interested in your product and likely to buy. Also, those people who click on those advertisements know that they are being sent to a site that has paid for placement and they know it is a site where something is to be purchased. However, this is the “right way” to make money off of paid traffic. You can also use this program the “wrong way” and generate money as well. For example, Perry Marshall is an expert at using paid advertising to generate traffic and profits, but he often uses Adwords the
“wrong way.”
On the other hand, you can look at someone like Jimmy D. Brown. He gives away free reports and generates viral traffic in this manner. He is able to generate traffic without effort and he does it for free.
When you look at both aspects, you will most likely find that there is no straight answer as to which method is best. They can both be used effectively if used in the appropriate manner.
Otherwise, you can do a lot of work and make a whole lot of nothing. It’s all about how you control the medium.
