How to Build More Website Traffic without Paying for Advertising

How do you build more website traffic and make your site standout from the other 100 million sites on the web? In affiliate marketing, your goal is to convert 2% or more of your visitors into buyers which would make your website profitable beyond your wildest dreams.

If you thought you had to build your website traffic by getting a ton of inbound links or spending money on pay per click (PPC) advertising you need to rethink that old strategy. What was de rigueur for internet marketing two years ago does not apply today!

Build More Traffic for Your Site

It’s a myth that the fastest way to build more website traffic is to pay for it using pay per click (PPC) advertising. It happens far too often that you end up spending so much on advertising expenses that it wipes out your affiliate income. PPC has only short-term results and doesn’t bring in any more website traffic once the money runs out. Only natural search results can build long-lasting placement in the top of the results pages.

How to Build a Website for Your Affiliate Business

The oldest and still the best idea to build more traffic going to your website is to add original content. This means articles, reviews, and snips of information that are not copied or duplicated from other websites or even other pages on your own site. When engines index and return such pages with unique content to surfers it’s known as natural search results. It’s more work and takes longer to build such a website but the traffic is free and the indexed pages give your site weight in the search term algorithms.

Get the Traffic and then Convert the Sales

Now, don’t assume that just because you build more website traffic by adding more pages of content that it will translate into more income. Unfortunately, it’s not an automatic formula. Some popular site owners get a ton of traffic but have no idea how to make money from all the visitors. They can’t turn potential buyers into sales conversions and have no idea what they are doing wrong.

Ken Evoy, the founder of SiteBuildIt, does, and he calls the solution PRE-selling. It’s an art, a subtle strategy, as the customer shouldn’t know he is being won over and convinced that he can’t live without the product. This approach needs to be part of your business plan and traffic building strategy from the start (when you’re first writing page content), otherwise you’ll have to redo a lot of work. Time is money on the internet and you want to focus on what you need to build your free website traffic and start making real internet income without paying for advertising.

Get the Holy Grail: Internet Traffic

Read Get to the Point -- The Traffic Point to get an idea of how SiteBuildIt uses hyper-marketing methods to promote its own website and those of its clients to get to the traffic “point”, the apex, the top, of all visited sites on the internet. SiteBuildIt sites rank well in traffic: 62 percent of sites reach the top 3 percent and 35 percent are reaching the top 1 percent of all sites visited on the internet. *(From Alexa.com stats measuring traffic popularity on 100 million active sites. The “top 1%” requires a ranking of better than 1,000,000.)

Do you have a website but don’t know where it ranks? Go to the The Traffic Point page, scroll down halfway and enter your URL address. A low rank, somewhere down in the tens of millions, or no data at all, means you’ve got a lot work to do to build more website traffic.
