Start Marketing Online For Free
In the webmaster world there is so many different misconceptions about paying for traffic and learning about free internet marketing. There are many different forms of free internet marketing and the payoff is lasting. If you decide to pay for traffic you will only get traffic for as long as you can pay. Usually when purchasing traffic the amount of traffic that you get will not pay for itself which means it is a good idea to use free sources. Right now for one of my earn money online websites I am getting a few hundred visitors daily from search engines and not paying a single cent. On average this much traffic would cost around fifty dollars each day, but rather than pay for traffic I decided to learn seo and was able to build this amount of traffic without paying a single cent. The only way you can learn search engine optimization is if you read everything you can about the topic. There are so many great sources out there for you to learn, but you must be willing to spend a large amount of time reading and discussing SEO strategy.
When you want to start search engine optimization the first step is learning about keywords. These are the words that you want to show up for when someone types them into Google or one of the other major search engines. One tool which is necessary for anyone wanting to learn about keywords is adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal. When you type a keyword into this tool it will tell you how many times monthly the keyword is being searched for. To make any real money you will need around fifty thousand searches monthly. You do not need all these searches to be for one keyword because you can optimize your website for several. It is also possible to optimize sub pages for longer tailed keywords which have less competition meaning they are much easier to rank well for. The very basic seo methods used are placing the keywords you want to rank well for on the page you would like to be brought up in the SERPs when someone searches for the word. What this means is if you would like your main index page to be brought up for the term “make money online” then you will need the term “make money online” on your main page.
The second step of search engine optimization is leaving your site and using external sources to build links towards your website. A link or also commonly referred to as a backlink is when your URL is on an external website. There are many different ways which you can create links, but none are easy as submitting your website to free directories. One of the largest and most updated lists I have come across when marketing has been directorycritic.com. This resource also has a huge list of over a thousand article directories which are also great for building links. The next place I go when trying to build links is linkmarket.com which is a directory full of websites that are wanting to exchange links. This directory makes it extremely easy to exchange links all you need to do is set up an account and a links page then begin copying and pasting links.
There are many more ways which you can increase traffic and for more information I suggest you check out free website traffic.
