Step 6 is all about getting traffic to our site…
Imagine that your new site is a “shop” in the middle of nowhere.
That is your site…………………..
We now have to inform people about this “shop”
Building links is important.
How we built links…That is not as easy as it sounds.You can get a service that will provide you with several “unusefull links” for a monthly fee.Tried that …forget it!
You can check it out your self if you need to.
Here are some links to visit:
http://link2me.com/
http://www.linkhelpers.net/
http://www.gotlinks.com/
Thats some of them you will find 1000’s if you check the keywords “Get links”
or “link exchange” or “Free links” on Google!
Well I had low success so I dont recommed spending your time there.
You need to find “Good sites” that have a PR 3 or more (PR Page Rank on Google) and contact the webmaster asking to exchange links with your site.It takes time ,many will reject you and a lot more wont even come back to you.That is the way it goes.Get use to it, you are just begining.Every start it hard,but at the end it pays off.
Submit you site to Google and other search engines.Here are a few links to do that:
http://www.google.com/addurl/?continue=/addurl (only for google)
http://www.submitexpress.com/ (for a lot more search engines)
all free of course.
Google will send a robot to index your site.It can take several weeks until you can see something on the search engine but no too long.Google will then give you a PR for your content.
I did publish a site and got 5PR in a week .Not easy I had very good quality content.PR can get up and can get down it depends on how often you update your site.It is wise to add a picture each week or a small text to get there.
As soon as your site has a 3PR or more many will like to exchange links.
On your site you will have to built a “links” page to add all the external links.
Make sure your links are up and in a good position.Most of the links are for free but if you think you want to be listed in high PR site you could pay a few $$ to get there.
Promote your site through blogs…..
Write something on your subject and post it in various blogs.It is easy and FREE.Blogs get a lot of traffic and as your post is fresh many will see it.Make it a usefull information and get awarded by traffic.Do not spam the blogs ,they will kick you out in no time, write or copy some text from your site.
You can also create your own blog for FREE.
Try www.wordpress.com
Very easy….got content ….get traffic.
I don’t want to bore you…Here is the last for today.
Google Adwords
Well we are going to talk about this a lot more in the next steps.
Google adwords is the other side of Google Adsense.Here you have to pay per click for your own add that is being displayed on other sites that use Google Adsense.It is costly and not always worth it…
We need to get more specific on the Adwords next time.
I think that is enough for a step to do.
Research the above and …..you will see.
Everything is possible ,it is how much you want it !!!
My Best
