So You Have A Website Now What?

You start with a great idea or product that you want to market.
You have done the research and built the website but how do
you drive people to your site? The internet can be a field
of dreams; however, due to its sheer size even if you build
it, they may not come.
If you have unlimited funds, you can definitely pay to get
your website submitted to multiple search engines quickly.
If you want to submit your website to search engines for free,
it can take anywhere from 6 to 12 weeks for the search engine
to finally add you to their results. But you want traffic
now.
There are a lot of submission programs being advertised on
the internet. Some are legitimate programs and some will take
your money and not deliver. It is hard to know who to trust.
Here are some ideas to help assist you on the road to success.
1. Promote your website yourself.
This sounds like a very broad statement and just where do
you start? Get creative. There are many avenues that you can
take to advertise your product and/or website.
a. Add your website information to your signature line in
your email account. Every time you send an email, you are
also advertising your website.
b. Print up flyers about your product / website and post them
around your community.
c. Take out classified ads in your local papers. Many of these
you can do online and can do so rather cheaply.
d. There are multiple free classified sites that you can submit
to. You may not get a large number of clicks through free
classifieds but the goal is to get your information circulating.
e. Another good avenue I have found to drive traffic to your
website without having to pay out large advertising dollars
is by using Instant Buzz. Instant Buzz is the easiest way
to drive targeted traffic to your website just by doing what
you do anyway; surfing the web. You can install Instant Buzz
in seconds, never do anything different ever again, and you'll
still earn traffic every time you surf. It is free to use
so you don't really have anything to lose and everything to
gain. For more information you can visit http://www.InstantBuzz.com/r/?jpvh28
2. Pay-Per-Click
This form of advertising can get pricey pretty quickly but
by using Google Adwords and Yahoo, you can set your own daily
spending limit to ensure you don't go over budget. Both sites
have keyword help to assist you in creating the keywords for
your ads. A small word of advice, start small when using Pay-Per-Click.
Allow yourself the opportunity to get the hang of it. If you
choose keywords with low click price, you can receive more
clicks before you reach your limit. There are a lot of great
resources out there to learn about using Pay-Per-Clicks.
I have come across an eBook that has changed my way of thinking
when it comes to Internet Marketing. It is called "Dotcomology.
The Science of Making Money Online". This book contains
information on how to use Pay-Per-Click search engines properly
to drive traffic to your site; How to profit using Google
Adwords; How to make your website attractive, engaging and
interactive. This book has so many resources and insights,
I am unable to list them all within this article. The best
part of this eBook is that it is free. No gimmicks, no hype.
Just a free resource for you to use.

tool it is.
