A Little Free Traffic Never Hurt Anybody
By DaveM | December 6, 2006
If you build it, they will come! Well, not exactly - especially when it comes to the Internet. But if you have a website, no matter what it’s about, I’m guessing you probably wouldn’t mind a little free traffic that requires no extra work.
For all you fellow “opportunity junkies” trying to get people to your biz-opp site, let me just say, I feel your pain! I’m betting you’ve probably already been through all the so-called training about how to use free traffic exchanges, FFA pages, ad-blasters, and so on. Hopefully you learned the truth faster than I did before you wasted a bunch of time. Those methods just don’t work!
If you don’t believe me, go ahead and spend about a hundred hours mindlessly surfing traffic exchange sites, waiting for that stupid little countdown timer to reach zero so you can click a picture that will display the next useless “get rich quick” website.
And then spend another hundred hours or so typing ads into the FFA link sites and ad-blaster tools. Then all you have to do is hope that your copy writing skills are good enough to make your ad stand out from the THOUSANDS of other ads all promoting the same crap.
On second thought… PLEASE don’t waste even one minute doing those things.
Do you really think it’s coincidence that all the biz-ops and get-rich-quick schemes teach these same marketing methods to their members? And yet, 96+% of the people who try — FAIL at these programs!
C’mon folks, be realistic. If you use just a tiny bit of “gut sense” and ask yourself if those methods really work, I think you’ll come to the same conclusion. Besides, if any of it did work, would you really want the kind of site visitors you’d be getting?
So what’s a person to do? We all want and need traffic at our website, but very few people are able to generate it effectively. I wish I had the answers, but if I did, I’d probably be earning a full time online income right now.
SiteSell pretty much has the market cornered when it comes to website traffic and search engine domination. That’s where the best traffic REALLY comes from. I fully expect my new website to dominate, or come close to dominating, the niche I’m targeting. Site Build It! virtually guarantees it as long as I bring the brain and motivation, and do my part as instructed through the process.
Unfortunately, this site isn’t a Site Build It! site. Even if it was, I would have very little chance of ever dominating the “how to make money online” market. That niche is already overrun by several very big name gurus who actually know how to make HUGE online incomes.
Based on everything I’ve seen and tried in the past, there’s only one tool that consistently delivers a steady stream of free traffic to your site - regardless of your level of market domination. And here’s a little secret… A lot of those big name gurus I mentioned are using the exact same tool I’m about to share with you!
That tool is called InstantBuzz and you can literally have it up and running in about 32 seconds (OK, maybe 64 seconds)! It installs as a small toolbar in your web browser and you earn ad credits by simply surfing the ‘net as you normally would. It’s unobtrusive and doesn’t generate any popups or spyware.
I look at it this way… If you’re gonna be surfing and/or working online anyway, you might as well get a little something for it, right? It’s kinda like using a rewards credit card. If you must use a credit card, you might as well get one that gives you a kick-back.
So, check out InstantBuzz and download the toolbar. Then create your free account, plop a headline and a URL in, and you’re done! Surf on and earn credits. Your credits are then automatically redeemed when the system displays your ad in the toolbar of someone else’s browser. You can even set up more than one headline/URL combo to see which one gets more clicks, and then tweak your wording a bit until you get the best click-through rate.
InstantBuzz’s toolbar even works with the superior web browser - Firefox! 
I just finished resurrecting my old InstantBuzz account from back in the day. I typed in a couple new headlines to generate some love for Mauder’s Money Matters — and now I’m surfing…and advertising.
How much simpler can it get? Not much; I guarantee it. So go ahead, start your own InstantBuzz!
