GENERATING TRAFFIC
Initially, we are get traffic by usa site twe already used. Head on over to http://answers.yahoo.com find questions trelate to your niche.
Make sure to answer the questions like you are genuinely concerned. Directly below where you answer the question therea box “resource” . You are generally safe if you put 2 links in tbox. So, make sure tyour Squidoo lensalways one of them then just alternate the others.
Chances are good tyou will not see a ton of traffic by dothis, but you will get trickles maybe even a sales especially true bee you are puttyour links in front of one who needs wyou are selling.
The msource of traffic will come through writand publisharticles with sites like http://www.ideamarketers.com If you already written articles used them, then you already know tby far they are the best source of targeted free traffic twe at our disposal.
As a rule, I recommend writand publish3 articles per day each niche you are in. You can scale tdown to meet time constraints tyou , but 3 or more articles a day will give you a steady flow of traffic allow you to start maksales sooner than later.
Don’t let the article writintimidate you. Earlier we went over how to come up with article titles twill attractders how to come up with content. Just follow the same procedures you will find it easy to come up with content daily.
While trafficour mreawritthe articles, there are other benefits. Remember earlier when we were “analyzcompetition” we were payclose attention to the number of links ta site had comin. Every time tyou submit an article you are link it to your Squidoo lens which will giv another backlink the search engines to consider when chooswhere to rank your site, the more the better.
There are other ways of gettbacklinks traffic tyou can dos kind of like extra credit though. You hear a lot of talk about generattraffic through the use of forums other social sites goodsonese kinds of sites are the most part open forums where people can post whatever they want then a discussion about issues.
One of my favorite ways to find places tare pertinent to my nichewww.boardreader.com example, I just went typed in “relationship advice” bethe niche we talked about throughout this it gave me over 37,000 results of forums other social mediums tI can register too include a signature linkback to my Squidoo Lens as well as talk about the subject.
You cano take advantage of the social networksites like www.digg.com www.stumbledupon.com with these sites you can post a link to all of your virtuall estate as well as the articles tyou writes just one other way tyou can put your name out there lead people to your content ultimately try to convert them into buyers.
One ththatvery important I can’t stress enoughtwhere the article writingconcerned you toCONSISTANT! If you aren’t, you very well could see your traffic sales dry up.
The great thabout articles though, especially when you are dealwith low competition keywordsyou stand a great chance of a top rankand getthundreds of visitors a day bee of it.
Once this happens, you can make a decision on whether there are other keywords you can target or maybe move into another niche to give you an additional revenue stream.

CLOSING
This lesdefinitely got a lot longer than I every thought it would. I made every effort possible to make sure teven the “small” things were covered. Itmy goal to make sure twhen you get donedthis you can immediately start makmoney after the initial set up.
Even though setteverythup does require work, it mportant tyou look at the big picture. Once everythingset up you are makmoney every month you can take the tasks ttake the most time outsource them at one of the many freelance boards tyou hear about all of the time. When you do that, it frees up your time allows you to jump into another niche then repeat the whole process again.
