One of the most popular methods of traffic generation is the link exchange. Not only can they generate fairly targeted traffic from other related web sites, the number of quality links to your site is also a major factor determining your web site's ranking in major search engines like Google.
The problem with link exchanges is that they require you to give a reciprocal link in exchange for linking to your site. Reciprocal link exchange is also declining in effectiveness.
This inevitably means that there will be a limit to the number of links you can tastefully place on your site without compromising your layout, content, and credibility.
Links to other sites also provide extra temptations for surfers to leave your site. Also, search engines place more importance on the quality than the number of sites linking to your web site.
It is of course difficult for small web sites to convince large,You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login, successful web sites to exchange links with them.
An incredibly simple, but little used so is to use testimonials to gain a link on large successful web sites, WITHOUT having to place a reciprocal link on our own site!
No webmaster, no matter how successful,You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login, can resist an honest,You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login, glowing compliment to their creation. The trick is to write short, flattering testimonials for the content, design, functions,You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login, products, services etc. of many web sites and send it to them as a sincere "feedback".
Many webmasters will feel so flattered and want to publish these "unsolicited" compliments to reinforce the credibility of their web site and products. To make the testimonial credible, they must naturally mention who it came from.
This would be your opportunity to request a link to your web site. At a minimum, you should be able to get a link in the form of "yourname, webmaster, You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login". This is really a beautifully simple, no-cost way of getting links in many high quality web sites.
There's another amazing simple trick of generating traffic which is very easy to implement, yet very few people know about it.
It's very powerful and if you use it with a great affiliate product or any product that you're selling,You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login, it has the potential of making some money quickly. I've been using this method in just under a year now on Squidoo.
When I discovered HubPages several months ago I started using it there too. This may be just the kind of information that will take your Lenses and Hub pages to the next level of income and traffic generation.
I discovered this trick by accident. I created a Squidoo lens for one Clickbank affiliate program and added some tracking to the Clickbank URL. A few hours later, when I checked my Clickbank account to look at something else, I discovered that I had made 3 sales from the Squidoo lens that I had made!
I was shocked! So I stopped everything and logged on to Squidoo to see what was happening. I looked at my lens stats and I discovered that I had 198 visits to my lens. I had done just ONE THING differently when I created this lens.
I tested this on HubPages several weeks later and the same thing happened except this time I had 2 sales after a day. My HubPage stats showed 131 visits referred by HubPages and 148 by Google search.
This trick uses what are called tag pages. If you go to Squidoo or HubPages and click on a tag you'll see what a tag page is. This is a page which has a list of all the Squidoo lenses / HubPages that use that tag.
A tag is just like a keyword or search term which can be used to describe what a lens or hub is about. But strangely enough, not many people how to use tags properly to drive more traffic to their website.
