To earn any kind of money on the internet we all need to do the
same thing... generate traffic to a web page.
But not all traffic is equal. And while some methods to
generate traffic for free are a pure waste of bandwidth, others
will really help you to generate an income.
One easy question you should ask yourself when choosing a method
to generate quality traffic is:
Would I pay attention and notice this kind of an ad myself?
If you answer that question with no or most likely not, than
chances are that many others will also not notice your ad. And
this means it's just a waste of bandwidth as people won't buy
what they don't notice.
But if you can answer that question with yes or most likely,
then chances are that many others will notice your ad as well.
This method will in fact help you to generate an income
through quality traffic.
Now, let's take a closer look at several free advertising
methods and evaluate their effectiveness.
1. List Building Tools
TheListMachine -
http://add2it.com/see.pl?TheListMachine
This free program allows you to advertise via email to twice as
many people as you and your downline members have referred to
this program.
The unique twist in this list building program is that it builds
a second reverse matrix for you of people you couldn't contact
otherwise. This way your possible exposure is increased easily.
Members receive email from their upline at their regular email
account and not a secondary spam account like it is practice
with safelists. This improves the chances of your message
actually being read dramatically.
One downside of TLM is that you need initial traffic to build a
list. But their unique twist allows you to double your efforts.
Ask yourself the question... do you read and pay attention to
well written emails that arrive in your regular mailbox? My
answer is most likely.
Other list building tools in alphabetical order are...

2. Banner / Text Ad Exchanges
Profit Messaging -
http://add2it.com/see.pl?PM
This free program combines a tool most people use very
frequently with a way to generate traffic.
What's unique about PM is that most tasks that you do anyway
while using chatting with your growing list of buddies will
earn you ad credits that you can use to place banner / text ads
in front of other people using this tool.
What's nice about PM is that you don't need initial traffic to
build a list of buddies and generate traffic... you can build
your buddy list and traffic through PM's existing members base.
This messaging tool is very useful, viral and the banner / text
ads get a lot of clicks, which is one of the most effective
kinds of traffic you can generate. Yes, it gets definitely my
attention.
Other banner / text ad exchange tools in alphabetical order
are...

3. Safelists
This free or paid programs allows you to advertise via email to
other free or paid safelist members.
The problem with this kind of advertising is that most people
don't even look at the emails received from safelists as they
go to a secondary email account used just for this purpose.
This method will not get the attention of most people.
4. Traffic Exchange Tools
AutoHitsNow -
http://add2it.com/see.pl?AutoHitsNow
This free program allows you to generate traffic to your web
pages in exchange for you visiting other peoples web pages.
Usually any kind of auto surf program has the problem that most
people will not even see your sites and this way they just waste
your bandwidth.
AutoHitsNow tries to overcome the problem by offering more
credits for manual surfing and a random, but rather often
offering of bonus credits during surf sessions that you can only
receive if you pay attention.
This easy method of generating traffic will only get the
attention of some people. It's more or less a numbers game.

5. Publishing Articles
One of the best ways to get tons of free, super effective
traffic is to write your own articles and publishing them all
over the net.
To find free places that accept your articles, simply visit
www.google.com and search for: submit article for free
If you don't mind to invest a few $ to save yourself hours of
work, then take a closer look at this tool that does not only
allow you to submit your newsletter to hundreds of places all
over the web, but also your articles:

6. Creating Content Web Pages
Search engine traffic is another very effective source of
traffic and highly recommendable. Simply create as many content
web pages as you can. The more pages, the more traffic you will
get over time.
You can publish your own articles, product reviews, endorsements
and much more on your own content web pages.
Another way to create many content pages very fast is described
in great detail in Anik Singal's Traffic Equalizer Mastery
Course at:
http://add2it.com/see.pl?DSE
Tip: To get your new pages faster into Google, the most
important search engine, get your home page added to at least
one high Google PR page (see:
http://toolbar.google.com).
A low cost way of getting your own domain & hosting is GDI. For
just $10 a month you don't just get all you need to get started
to put your own content web pages online, but also an excellent
way to earn yourself an extra income.
A final tip: Once you got into the habit of using free methods
of generating quality traffic you will find the following two
programs very helpful. They allow you to promote everything
from a single page...
Home-Income-Team -
http://add2it.com/see.pl?HIT
World Downline -
http://add2it.com/see.pl?WD
Both programs allow you to promote each other and this way leave
you promoting just one of them to promote all your programs.
And I am sure that you agree that the lesser you have to
promote, the easier and more effective it gets. :)
