How To Drive Highly Targeted Traffic To Your Site For Free
I'm often asked how you can drive highly target traffic to your website, without paying for it. Can this be done? My answer is always "Of course...Forums". Forums are a type of message board, where users can post their ideas, views or questions.
Let's use the example of a Golf Forum. If you run a website about golf, or are promoting golf products, simply join a Golf Forum. Users log in and post all sorts of questions and comments related to golf. Topics may include gold discussions, products, players etc. Now a great way to get these people to see your website, is to add a signature to your comments. This can be done by setting this up in your profile under your account. Everytime you make a post your signature will read something along the lines of "More Golf Tips Here". When users click the link they will be directed to your site. There you have it. Genuine golf fans visiting your site.
The secret is not to write posts about your website. This is not allowed on forums, and is considered SPAM. Simply provide useful information and friendly advice, and you will build up a reputation on the forum. If people like what you've written they will naturally click your link.
