How to get free traffic to your website

There are many ways to get free traffic to your website, but the method that I use beats all the traditional methods hands down - and best of all...it's free!

I have used all forms of advertising, but most of the good forms of advertising have cost money. Like all business owners, we have to analyze our investments and try to cut cost in order to receive a larger return on our investments.

Now, your probably wondering what I could possibly be doing to bring traffic to my website without spending a dime on advertising. Well, you're looking at it. Do you see it yet? I am writing an article. It's absolutely that simple!

I will write an article about a topic that I know and am comfortable with, and then I will go and submit these articles to various websites on the Internet. Are you worried that websites won't accept your article? You shouldn't be. This is a win / win situation for all parties involved.

First of all, webmasters love these articles. I have even had webmasters come back to me and ask if I have any more. Why do they do this? Because it helps their search engine rankings by providing visitors to their site good content. After they place your article on their website a portion of their visitors will visit your site. Once you have placed enough of these articles out on the Internet, your traffic will dramatically increase and so will your search engine rankings. I guarantee it!

Maybe your new to the Internet business and don't have enough experience to write about anything pertaining to the Internet business. No problem there either. Everyone has some life experience that they can write about. Maybe you're a stay at home mom and your good at changing diapers. You better believe that there is a mother to be out there somewhere who is surfing the Internet looking for information on how to change diapers.

Now, your probably not going to be able to write an article about changing diapers and get it listed on a home business website. But there are plenty of websites that will accept an article of this nature and still drive traffic to your business site. I would suggest doing a search on your favorite search engine for "submit baby articles" or something of that nature. Be creative, you will never run out of websites willing to accept your article.

After I have completed my article, I will write a short autobiography about myself and include my website address in it. Notice how I have done this at the bottom of this article.

The Internet was created with the intention of providing information to the public. Become an information provider and you will be rewarded beyond your wildest dreams. Remember that the Internet has created more millionaires than any other vessel in history.

Best wishes for your future success and prosperity!

Sincerely,
Rebecca Gilbert
