Killer Traffic Tactics
Today in the world of Web 2.0, Social Media sites are one of the most important sources of traffic for your online business.
Social Media sites are capable of delivering massive traffic very quickly to your sites. But done the wrong way can KILL your business.
Let me explain to you what the 3 most important types of Social Media Sites for your online business are:
1. Communities - These are sites that people go to on a regular basis and hang out. People set up profiles and make them personal by adding photos, writing blog entries on their own pages and making comments on their friends pages. Examples of communities are FaceBook and MySpace.
2. Libraries - These sites contain collections of information provided by their users. Examples of libraries are Digg and Technorati.
3. Notice-boards - These are sites where people go to and make recommendations to other sites or make posts to on a regular basis. Examples of these types of notice-boards are Twitter and blogs.
But how can you effectively use these sites?
The best way to use these types of sites is by signing up and creating a profile, read the TOS (Terms of Service) to find out what can and can't be done on the site, spend some time in the site watching what others are doing and then do the same.
The reason why you should do all of this is because if you just sign up and start posting content linking to your site, there is a very strong chance that the site members will see you as a spammer and ban you from the site.
So sign up and take a look around and get a feel for the site. Set up your profiles like the other members are and then do the same as others are doing.
For example, lets say you sign up to Facebook. What are the others doing? Well they are adding photos, "updating their status", posting comments on their friends "Walls"...
Slow down! Before you can post on your friends "Walls", you have to first GET some friends.
FaceBook has a way when you're signing up, that you can import your email address list and find contacts that are part of the FaceBook community. You can then use this to invite people to be your friend. There is also a search function where you can search for friends by name.
Next, you invite your friends and if they accept your invitation, then you will be able to communicate with them and post messages and pictures and of course comment on those pictures.
If you are trying to use FaceBook to make business contacts, then you quickly get a few hundred friends to join and you immediately start selling and making money!
This is NOT a good idea. Think about this for a moment... how would you react if you received a friend invite one day, accepted and then got bombarded with offers from this person right away?
You wouldn't like it at ALL! You probably would block this person from being your friend ASAP! You might even complain to FaceBook. If FaceBook thinks you're spamming, they will BAN you from the site.
You need to spend a good amount of time at ALL of these sites, learn from others, and then submit some great quality content to these sites slowly.
Say what? You don't have any extra time? You already have a huge "to-do" list that will make it difficult to spend large amounts of time at these Social Media sites.
You don't have to worry about that now because I have found this simple to follow step-by-step video guide called "Social Traffic Explosion" that will save you hours of your valuable time by explaining how to sign up and create the perfect FaceBook and MySpace profile pages.
You will also learn secret strategies that show you the only way to use FaceBook, MySpace, Twitter and other social bookmarking sites to get massive FREE traffic to your site.
