No pictures, no fancy artwork, let’s just talk about traffic – targeted web traffic for your website.
Without ever reading this post or any of the previous, you already know that the most basic element of generating income is having highly targeted traffic coming steadily to your website or blog.
No visitors – No sales! Pretty simple to understand.
As I have told you before, it takes time and some money to make a steady income. If you are not willing to spend some money in creating your traffic, then you really aren’t in business. You’re just a transient by passer who thinks this might be interesting.
The great thing about an online business is that it doesn’t have extreme costs. My business partner and I started with absolutely zero cash, zero credit, no homes, no nothing. We weren’t complaining we were broke while still having money in the bank we were just afraid to invest. There was no bank account of saved cash, nothing, nada, zippo.
Yet here I am writing this blog and working my way with an online business. Why? Because we took every small amount of money we had, created websites, and started to work on traffic. We did not expect it for free.
The internet is wonderful in that it has so many ways to create very low cost, targeted traffic. You don’t have to empty your bank to get a real business started. So coming in the next series are five of the top ways I use to generate low cost, targeted web traffic.
Some are repeats of what you already read, but I think it is well worth saying again. I will also provide you the resources I use to make these targeted traffic strategies effective.
So here’s the rhetorical question of the day: Do you want to tons of free traffic running to your website?
Of course the answer is YES! In fact, who in their right mind would say anything but yes?
Using a tell-a-friend script is one of the simplest, fastest and most successful ways of incorporating viral marketing into your website. It is very simple programming that can be attached to any website. The scripts usually are installed in pages with media or where a sale was completed so the viewer or purchaser can share it with a friend or family, or whomever they choose.
A well scripted tell-a-friend will integrate seamlessly into your website. It will complement every other source of traffic you have developed. The best part is, the more traffic you send to it from other sources, the more traffic it brings in return. It can literally cause a traffic explosion.
How does a tell-a-friend script work?
I’ll avoid being technical here. A script is just a word for a small program to perform a simple task. A tell-a-friend script is a small program you install on your web host server that allows visitors to your site to tell their friends about you. The best ones work very simply and install very easily for maximum results.
Then you enter a very simple code on your web page in the spot where you want the tell-a-friend script to do its magic. When a your targeted visitor opens the page – let’s say it’s the thank you page after a sale – and they see on the page a box to enter their name and email, their friends name and email, a short message and a send button.
A good script is customizable and often let’s you choose whether to allow visitors to change the title and body of the email to be sent. It will always display the email to be sent, even if you don’t allow it to be customized. Let’s face it, who in their right mind would allow an email to be sent if they don’t know what’s in the email? Dah!
So what happens? Your visitor comes to your site. In this case, they buy something, and to complete the sale they are so emotionally happy about, they then send the good news to their friends.
Some numbers of their friends return to check it out, and someone purchases and repeats the cycle. This is a targeted prospect that you did not pay for, and they paid you, then they advertised for you.
A tell-a-friend script makes it easy for this cycle to repeat itself endlessly! Now your word-of-mouth marketing is being done automatically and done with incredible conversion ratios.
Now remember, this is just an example, you can use this on any type of page you want to get free visitors to. It doesn’t have to be a sales page.
Tell-A-Friend Script Availability
There are tons of tell-a-friend scripts available. Many have some very extravagant programming and fancy bells and whistles.
However, if you are new to dealing with scripts and want this to work as simply as possible, then this completely free script is all that you need. It does everything required for success, and has complete video instructions for its installation and use.
It does require you have a hosted website, and that the host allows scripts to be installed. If that’s the case for you (and it should be if you are a serious marketer) then this script is for you – And it’s FREE! No tricks, this is the no trick zone.
Remember, like any traffic source or tool, you don’t get instant gratification! You have to do as Napoleon Hill told us, and that is be patient. You must build your traffic to your site using the many methods available and gradually, the tell-a-friend will build you mileage and more and more targeted visitors and traffic find your site.

Here’s a viral traffic tool that you’ll see all the top marketers using today with tons of effective results!
The reason you read these posts is because, like every online marketer in any niche you or your webmaster need to increase the amount of targeted traffic running to your website. You have seen advertised literally dozens if not hundreds of ways to solve your traffic nightmare. Unfortunately, most have a very small impact if any at all.
Many methods, including viral marketing, will have little effect if done incorrectly. In viral marketing, you rarely find a tool that can singlehandedly have a large impact by leveraging off your existing traffic.
Tell-a-friend scripts makes great use of the tendency of a person to share something they think is great, or fun, or entertaining, or even informative with their friends and contacts. Few tools in viral marketing can be so successful at leveraging this as tell-a-friend scripts.
Viral marketing in itself is not new. But there have been ingenious ways of doing this. For example, if you remember when email became big, Microsoft created “Hotmail” and offered it for free, and never advertised. It spread like wild fire by word-of-mouth (a form of viral marketing).
Tell-a-friend scripts themselves aren’t free, but the cost is minor compared to the return on the very small investment. Any website that can successfully leverage on a viral tool, is going to skyrocket with visitors and sales.
More coming on viral traffic…

P.S. Ok, I lied! Tell-a Friend Secrets Revealed is a completely free resource and tell-a-friend script. Go ahead and check it out or you won’t ever know what you missed.
We’ve talked about SEO and search engine traffic before. But like when I was in the Navy, we emphasized repetition of skills and basics to make advanced tactics work the impression of ease. This is a long post, but I didn’t want to break it up. I am going to violate “the rules” and overwhelm you with content. So let’s get started with a closer look…
Search Engine Optimization or SEO is a term widely used by anyone trying to make money online and build a real online profit machine. All of you know that search engines are the most common place for people to go to find the online information they want so bad. And if you are on the first page of the results, you are front page news to the searcher.
It’s not a secret that most people rely on the top ten results (the first page) of the search they just requested. If your site comes up on a desired search in the top ten, then WHAMO you get FREE targeted web traffic straight from the search engine. You didn’t pay a dime!
So I will state the obvious in case it didn’t sink in: You and your website or blog have a bazillion times higher chance of being clicked if you appear on the first page of the search engine results. And this traffic is COMPLETELY targeted for you – if you did your SEO correctly.
Are you still following me? Now this is a fact, once you are there (on the first page results) you must hold on to your ranking. You cannot, and will not stay on top if you don’t keep your website up-to-date and optimized.
What people search for changes over time, and how search engines search also changes. Plus, new players constantly enter you niche! It is imperative to make your site better and better everyday.
Are you still questioning whether you need to use search engine optimization? Well, I’ll give you my bottom line: You need Search Engine Optimization if you want to maximize profit and keep your costs low. Ignore it and you’ll pay through the teeth. It’s that simple. It’s your choice.
With a solid search engine optimization effort, you get the benefit of “magically” attracting high volume targeted traffic. Using the best choice of keywords and keyword phrases you can get hundreds of visitors a day to your blog or website.
If you only convert 1 or 2 percent of these free, highly targeted visitors, you will still be making a profit – remember, you didn’t pay for these buyers. They found you because you did your SEO basics correctly – up front, not as an afterthought.
So what else is SEO? It’s using the right methods, and employing the right tools to keep your blog or website on the first page of the search engines. Now here is another fact: it is neither impossible nor highly difficult. Just get the right knowledge and tools.
In an earlier post, I showed you a method for finding keywords that can get you lots of traffic and put you on the first page of Google in record time – even in the most competitive niches. It’s back in the section about creating content. I hope you paid attention. If not, go back and re-read it.
Getting there and then in the top half, and then staying in the top half guarantees targeted viewers become targeted traffic in high numbers.
If your content is good, they become very loyal and very much, paying followers.
As you start learning your necessary – even mandatory – search engine optimization skills, there is one way I know to start your blog site on automatic. If you are building a blog – and you should be (remember the this post?) then you must get this plug in now. No excuses, it’s free and it works…
For the fruits of your efforts to “search engine optimize” you have to learn the basics and then maintain an ongoing effort. Your site has to change as public focus changes and as the search engine mechanics change. Your keyword phrases must be updated and your content must be refreshed.
Periodically rewriting your site content with the updated keywords and adjustments for change in search engine activity will be a big part of your site getting to the top and staying there. The rules will change and so must your blog or website if the targeted free traffic is to keep coming.
So lend me your ear, and take note of this fact: you don’t have to be a technical expert, or computer whiz to learn enough SEO to keep your blog and target for tons of web traffic. The single source I know works for everyone is by a SEO expert that knows more about making it easy than anyone I know.
She is Pat Marcello, and she is not a computer whiz or techno geek. But, in her steady efforts to become a master blogger she mastered SEO and search engine traffic in a way that you and anyone can understand – and she will teach it to you.
If you really want to understand Search Engine Optimization from an expert who is really just like you check out Pat Marcello here:
Remember also what I told you earlier about building one-way links to your site. This link building is part of your SEO efforts as well. I won’t explain it here, that is not what this is about. I just mention it again, to remind you that there is a lot more to SEO than just a few keywords.
Inbound links, from relevant sites is essential to your success.
If you are a more advanced reader and need a resource to automate inbound links to your site, then here is the resource that I use on many of my sites:
As you saw when we started this post, you realized this is about why you need SEO. I hope it sinks in. I started without using any search engine optimization and I paid the price. Learn and use the techniques from the start, and your search engine traffic will start early and stay with you for life.
What better thing than to have major companies like Google, Yahoo, and MSN give you free targeted traffic for life. Learn how to get it from the start.
