These sites provide their services for free in order to get you involved so that they can hopefully sell you increased features. You should follow the same strategy if you use them. Free traffic generators can be used to generate income on the Internet, but they are not in themselves, ways to sell products or create lasting, worthwhile website traffic. These free advertising sites are only good for creating downlines and mailing lists. The Pay to Click sites, where you can earn advertising credits to be used to place your ads or, in some cases, money, should not be confused with the publisher programs from search engines like Google, Yahoo, and MSN that pay you when people click on ads on your website. Some people in developing nations, where $2 per day is good pay, make a worthwhile income on Pay to Click sites. The people using free traffic generating sites
and viewing your ads are people who, just like you, are trying to
sell things. They are not there to buy anything, but all people buy
something. In order to use free traffic exchanges effectively, you
have to offer something for free. The exceptions are the free ad
sites and safelists where you can occasionally sell something that
doesn’t cost a lot. Only the credit-based safelists are
effective. Your effort will far exceed your income. Some
of the free things you can offer include a free affiliate program, a
free newsletter, a free book, a free contest, or even just free
advice. Whatever you offer for free has to have value. In order to
receive these free things, people must sign up for them and give you
their email address. Once they sign up, you can offer them things
that cost money via email. If what you gave them for free actually
had value, they will be more inclined to buy something from you.
Most of what you sell will involve making money, somehow, online,
but everyone buys clothes, services, food, beverages, insurance, and
other items like flowers so it doesn’t hurt to have links to these
items in your newsletter. Every
email or newsletter that you send to people on your mailing list
must have a way for people to stop receiving your emails. To help
keep people on your mailing list, it helps to provide aomething for
free with each mailing. Whatever you sell or give away has to have
value or people will opt out of your mailing list and not come
back. Whatever
website you promote on these free traffic generators, the search
engines will penalize you for using them, and the number of search
engine hits, which is the most valuable form of traffic, will be
reduced. If you happen to be a Google publisher, you will get your
account suspended and may never get it back. Most of the top search
engines will do this. The million hits per month that you generate
with these free tools will stop as soon as you stop using the sites.
The type of websites that you want to promote using these free tools
include affiliate sign up pages and low cost websites of your own
designed for the specific purpose of building your mailing list. If
you have a blog or expensive commercial website that you are hoping
to make a lot of money with from search engine traffic, do not
promote it with free traffic tools. Using
free traffic tools to make money is a two-step process. First you
build your mailing list by giving away something of value for free
and then you sell things of value via email and
newsletter. Copyright
