Getting Guaranteed Website Traffic With Your Marketing Strategies

By Trisha Frauenhofer


The ways which you use in the attempt to get more traffic to your website are going to do one of two things: they're either going to work or they won't. There are a lot of companies out there which promise you that their methods will get you guaranteed website traffic - but there's a big difference between promising to drive more traffic to your site and actually delivering on their promises. If the method you're trying isn't getting you the traffic which your site needs, you have a lot of other options to choose from.

A pay per click service will get results if you just need advertising for your website that provides a product. However, it is not for adsense sites. It also may end up costing more than you make which defeats the purpose. You want something that will generate literally thousands and thousands of visitors.

Paid marketing can also be a good option, at least sometimes. For instance, you could try buying an ad with a list owner. How effective this will be for your business depends on how big their list is. These ads can also be very expensive and a lot of these services will try to trick you into upgrading to a more expensive service.

You should be cautious about any marketers who claim to have a very large number of subscribers, for instance 50,000 - more than likely, they submit to an article directory which has this many subscribers. Again, the results here may vary, depending on how many of the subscribers to the site are actually interested in what you have to sell. It usually is not worth it to use these services.

Guaranteed website traffic or your money back. We all like the sound of this, but you should investigate any company before choosing to use their services. Read the fine print, always. You want to be certain that you can actually get your money back should they fail to get you the traffic that they guaranteed you.

If you have decided that submitting articles is the best way to get your business or service noticed, be very careful of the companies that promise to submit your work to a lot of directories. There are several of these that require that you register an account with each and every directory to which they send your work. That can be so time consuming that you have time for nothing else.

The top submission services will submit your articles to as many different domains as you like. They also work with the smaller niche directories, which can actually be far better for your business - the readers of these sites are in your field or are looking for products and services which you offer. These niche directories are great for small businesses that are highly specialized.

Since there are simply so many different ways of getting traffic to your site these days, all of which claim that they can get you thousands of visitors, you need to choose carefully. You most likely have a small budget to work with if you are a small business or a new start up. You can't take too many chances with your marketing budget, especially if they may yield no results. To find the right service to help your business get more traffic, research the companies and look at what others have said about their services.
