Getting traffic to your website is mandatory if you are trying to promote something you are selling or a message you want to spread.  Before investing any money or time in many other resources there are 3 methods you should put into action for getting website traffic without having to spend a dime doing so.

1. Linking
Links to and from other websites is perhaps the most powerful method of increasing your ranking and bringing in a steady flow of visitors.  The search engines will give your site the attention you deserve as long as you are linked to sites that are related to yours.

Linking must also be a gradual process.  Search engines will penalize you if they suspect anything unnatural about the amount of links involved in your exchange with other websites.

2. Meta Tags
Work on the Meta Tags in your site by including keywords that will reach your target market.  Meta Tags help the search engines describe your website. Some HTML knowledge is required but there are plenty of tutorials online, so don’t let it scare you.

You may also hear about the lack of importance some people place on Meta Tags, but I wouldn’t let that stop you from putting an emphasis on something that won’t cost you any money to do and could add some extra visitors to your site.

3. Keyword-Rich Content
As much as traffic is critical to the survival of your website the content placed on your site is the key to getting it.  Adding or writing quality articles that gives the reader reliable information will increase the visibility of your message and subsequently a steady flow of website traffic.

Using the right keywords in these articles will give you a stronger chance of reaching the all important rankings in the search engines.  There are a handful of free keyword suggestion tools you can use to help you find those keywords.  As you become more experienced with traffic building you will realize how incredibly important the right keyword usage is to your success.

Using the 3 methods above can get you on the right path to getting a consistent flow of website traffic and since it won’t cost you any monetary investment there is absolutely no reason not to take advantage of putting them into action. But if you would prefer a step-by-step action plan I offer a very powerful e-book called Flood Your Site With Traffic.

I bet you can’t tell me the best way to use ezine articles to promote one of our big selling products.

Go ahead. Give it your best shot. Out loud. Say it. Whatever comes to mind, just blurt it out.

I’m listening.

The fact of the matter is, most people don’t really understand how to BEST use ezine articles to promote an affililate product.

They know they are supposed to write an article, include some kind of clever offer in the text or in their resource box, and convince editors to publish their article. But that’s as far as it goes.

However… there is a *very* clever way to use your article to promote like you’ve never seen before.
And I’m going to share it with you right now.

There are only five steps. And they are all super simple…

Step 01: Choose the product or service you want to promote.
This one is kind of a no-brainer. It all begins with deciding what you want to promote.

It could be:

www.BigSellingNiches.com or www.BigSellingConversions.com

We’re talking about an actual offer you want to present that you’ll earn profits from when readers of your article make a purchase.

Decide what it is that you want to promote through your free ezine article. And then move on.

Step 02: Determine your “useful, but incomplete” approach.
I love to use what Jimmy D. Brown has coined as the “useful, but incomplete” approach when using freebies of any kind. (Ezine articles, free eBooks, reports, eCourses, etc.)

Becoming a successful Big Selling Affiliate is all about having the right mindset.

It’s a mindset of approaching affiliate marketing as a business, it’s not a matter of showing up and here’s $2,000. In fact there is no limition on how much you can earn as an affiliate, it’s only the limitations you add yourself that can hold you back.

You need to put in the same kind of time and effort as you would in any kind of business. This is only part of the whole picture because you also need to have the determination and belief that you can and will succeed.

It’s a case of if you believe you can or you believe you can’t either way you’re right! You really need to “believe” you can become a successful Big Selling Affiliate marketer.

It’s no use thinking I don’t know how to do HTML, or I don’t know how to build a list or whatever the obstacle might be. You need to have the attitude that whatever stands in your way can be overcome with your positive mental attitude.

Being an affiliate isn’t a 9-5 job where you have a boss to answer to, instead you need to formulate your own plans and goals for achievement.

So before starting out as Big Selling Affiliate you need to have a plan of action to follow which includes knowing the following:

1. How and where will you be driving traffic from?

2. How will you position yourself and your product in the market place? (I wrote an article about branding yourself here which is all about positioning yourself in the market place).

3. How much money do you have available to spend on advertising?

4. What is your expected return on investment for your first month? You need to plan for the 30 day delay in affiliate commission payments.

5. What are your mid and long term goals? Where do you see yourself in 6 months time, 12 months time?

It’s critical that you take forward steps each and every day that help build your business, no matter how small those steps are. It might only be 1 hour writing an article or a blog post, it’s all about long term results being built by consistent action over time.

You might consider writing and submitting 2 articles a week, or a short blog post every other day, or commenting on several related blog posts each week. As long as it’s consistent action that helps you build your business.

Being patient is critical! It takes time to build subscriber lists and becoming established in the search engines. So during your first month it might seem like you’re not making any progress at all. This is where you positive attitude and your long term plan comes in to place. These are the things that keep you focused and motivated.

This takes me back to what I mentioned earlier about taking consistent forward moving action with your business because as you move forwards 1 step at a time you build momentum. Imagine pushing a car from standing still, it takes a lot of effort to get it moving but once it’s moving it gets easier and easier to move quicker and quicker, this is exactly what I mean about being patient.

It’s all about being patient, staying positive, being consistent and being strategic.

To help you get on the right track here are 7 points you must take careful note of before you start your affiliate business:

1. Take one step at a time (this is all about patience)

2. Take massive action and put in the required effort until your plan works, but don’t forget to keep your plan fluid as you sometimes need to make course corrections to hit your target.

3. Focus on one proven business system at a time, if this is affiliate marketing stay with it until you have it working for you. Then grow your business using other systems.

4. Treat this as a long-term business, not as a hobby or something to pass the time. Seriously commit to being a successful Big Selling Affiliate.

5. Commit to learning basic internet marketing skills like traffic generation, article marketing, copywriting and testing and tracking. Don’t be distracted by all the other latest and greatest marketing systems and opportunities you’re going to see.

6. Create a plan for your business from day 1, decide what your goals are then work backwards from where you want to be to where you are now, then follow that path.

7. Give yourself deadline to work to because this prevents the urge to procrastinate and teaches you how to accomplish anything you set your mind to.

One of the most important things you can do online is to create your own brand identity.

The reason for doing this is to help you stand out in the market place and increase your perceived value in the eyes of your probable customers.

You see brand identities every day no matter what you do or where you live.

They influence you when making buying decisions no matter what it might be.

I’ve done exactly this with my own brand of “Big Selling” websites.

All my domain names use the “Big Selling” name which is part of my brand, this is how people come to recognize me.

The other parts of my brand include the way I present my various websites along with my style of communication.

As a Big Selling Affiliate I’d like *YOU* to develop your own brand identity to help you stand out amongst others who are also promoting other Big Selling products.

So how are you going to do this exactly?

The first thing you need to do is to brainstorm ideas based on what it is you can offer other people. Maybe your uniqueness lies in how you help others decide which products are best for them simply by writing reviews of Internet Marketing products. It’s a really easy and straight forward way of getting yourself set up as a big selling affiliate.

What you want to have happen is for people to turn to you as the “trusted” expert.

Here’s how you do it…

In the case of reviewing Internet Marketing related products the next thing you need to do is to register a domain name that becomes your “brand name” people recognize you through.

An easy way of coming up with a domain name is to follow this formula: johnsmithreviews.com. Just change “johnsmith” with your name and you’ve taken the first step in creating your own brand.

You’ll then have a really clear domain name that’s unique to you and it says exactly what is you’re offering.

Once you have your domain name established it’s time to start building the rest of your brand. By far and away the simplest way to to this is to set up a blog because not only are they very easy to manage but the search engines just love them!

Inother posts I’ll show you how to set up a domain name, how to set up a blog using blogspot.com, then I’ll show you how to redirect your domain name to your blog.

Being in the affiliate marketing business is not that hard now with the internet at your disposable. It is much easier now compared to the days when people have to make use of the telephones and other mediums of information just to get the latest updates on the way their program is coming along.

So with technology at hand, and assuming that the affiliate is working from home, a day in his or her life would sound something like this…

Upon waking up and after having breakfast, the computer is turned on to check out new developments in the network. As far as the marketer is concerned there might be new things to update and statistics to keep track on.

The site design has to be revised. The marketer knows that a well-designed site can increase sign ups from visitors. It can also help in the affiliate’s conversion rates.

That done, it is time to submit the affiliate program to directories that lists affiliate programs. These directories are means to attract people in joining your affiliate program. A sure way of promoting the affiliate program.

Affiliate marketing is one of the most effective and powerful ways of earning some money online. This program gives everybody a chance to make a profit through the Internet. Since these affiliate marketing programs are easy to join, implement and pays a commission on a regular basis, more an more people are now willing in this business.

However, like all businesses, there are lots of pitfalls in the affiliate marketing business. Committing some of the most common mistakes will cost the marketers a large portion taken from the profit they are making everyday. That is why it is better to avoid them than be regretful in the end.

Mistake number 1: Choosing the wrong affiliate.

Many people want to earn from affiliate marketing as fast as possible. In their rush to be part of one, they tend to choose a bandwagon product. This is the kind of products that the program thinks is ìhotî. They choose the product that is in demand without actually considering if the product appeals to them. This is not a very wise move obviously.

Instead of jumping on the bandwagon, try top choose a product in which you are truly interested in. For any endeavor to succeed, you should take some time to plan and figure out your actions.
