How Do I Get More Traffic For My Blog? How do I go about contacting blog owners for a link exchange? Do I place a link to their blog first on my blog and then ask them for a reciprocal link? Are their any decent blog communities? I think I have done the basics, but need to learn more.

Use lists.
Be topical… write posts that need to be read right now.
Learn enough to become the expert in your field.
Break news.
Be timeless… write posts that will be readable in a year.
Be among the first with a great blog on your topic, then encourage others to blog on the same topic.
Share your expertise generously so people recognize it and depend on you.
Announce news.
Write short, pithy posts.
Encourage your readers to help you manipulate the technorati top blog list.
Don’t write about your cat, your boyfriend or your kids.
Write long, definitive posts.
Write about your kids.
Be snarky. Write nearly libelous things about fellow bloggers, daring them to respond (with links back to you) on their blog.
Be sycophantic. Share linklove and expect some back.
Include polls, meters and other eye candy.
Tag your posts. Use del.ico.us.
Coin a term or two.
Do email interviews with the well-known.
Answer your email.
Use photos. Salacious ones are best.
Be anonymous.
Encourage your readers to digg your posts. (and to use furl and reddit). Do it with every post.
Post your photos on flickr.
Encourage your readers to subscribe by RSS.
Start at the beginning and take your readers through a months-long education.
Include comments so your blog becomes a virtual water cooler that feeds itself.
Assume that every day is the beginning, because you always have new readers.
Highlight your best posts on your Squidoo lens.
Point to useful but little-known resources.
Write about stuff that appeals to the majority of current blog readers–like gadgets and web 2.0.
Write about Google.
Have relevant ads that are even better than your content.
Don’t include comments, people will cross post their responses.
Write posts that each include dozens of trackbacks to dozens of blog posts so that people will notice you.
Run no ads.
Keep tweaking your template to make it include every conceivable bell or whistle.
Write about blogging.
Digest the good ideas of other people, all day, every day.
Invent a whole new kind of art or interaction.
Post on weekdays, because there are more readers.
Write about a never-ending parade of different topics so you don’t bore your readers.
Post on weekends, because there are fewer new posts.
Don’t interrupt your writing with a lot of links.
Dress your blog (fonts and design) as well as you would dress yourself for a meeting with a stranger.
Edit yourself. Ruthlessly.
Don’t promote yourself and your business or your books or your projects at the expense of the reader’s attention.
Be patient.
Give credit to those that inspired, it makes your writing more useful.
Ping technorati. Or have someone smarter than me tell you how to do it automatically.
Write about only one thing, in ever-deepening detail, so you become definitive.
Write in English.
Better, write in Chinese.
Write about obscure stuff that appeals to an obsessed minority.
Don’t be boring.
Write stuff that people want to read and share.

I’m interested in buying a domain name from someone. Is there a site which authetically tracks how much traffic there already is going to the site.

Well there is Alexa which can tell you how many people are visiting the site. But I’m pretty sure there are ways for the owner of the domain to inflate the data on Alexa if they really want to. You could also look at services like sedo that do appraisals, there are probably a few of these that include the Alexa rankings and keyword rankings in the appraisal. Hope this helps.

IN GEORGIA IF YOUR ON PROBATION AND YOU GET A TRAFFIC CITATION AND YOU DID NOT GET ARRESTED DOES THE PROBATON OFFICER KNOW YOU GET IT. IF SO HOW LONG AFTER YOU GET THE TICKET DOES THE PROBATION OFFICER FIND OUT. AND IS THAT A VIOLATION OF PROBATION?

Depends on the officer issuing the citation in many cases. Most urban PD’s have a listing of all probation offenders and can call the PO to let them know. It happens more times than you imagine. 99.9% of the time, it will not be a cause for pursuing a motion to revoke, but it all depends on your probation conditions and the court.

I turn on Yahoo search marketing at 3pm and off at 11pm every day to prevent untargeted clicks from europe. My question is how long does it take from the time that I turn my account on until the time it starts displaying my ads?

It should be close to instantaneous. There may be replication delays as your listings’ status is updated across Yahoo servers, but this generally amounts to no more than 5-10 minutes, often much less. On rare occasions, the delay can extend to 45-60 minutes, though.

Try searching in google for forums,blogs,worldpress,ect,that
have same niches as yours. Secondly, you need to participate
at the forums and answer the questions or ask any questions / comments, then you can leave any signature file with a link to your site.

What do some people do, what do you suggest, without spending a lot of money. Any hints appreciated.

=============== =============== =============== ===============
Getting Huge Traffic on your Website
=============== =============== =============== ===============

First thing is that website traffic is of two types -
1. Targeted Traffic
2. Non-Targeted Traffic

Targeted traffic is is those visitors who have willingly come to your website in search of something you really provide on your pages.
e.g. someone searched in Google "Visual Basic Samples" and find your website. or some one find a banner showing Free VB Codes and clicks it. or someone clicks a link "Best VB Source codes" and comes to your website.

Non-Targeted Traffic are those visitors which have accidentally come to your website or are forced to come to your website or are paid to come to your website or actually wanted something different ( say VB = Victoria Bitter )

Obviously Non-Targeted Traffic is of only one use for you – If they click an ad you earn.
——————————– ——————————– ——————————–
If you demand Targeted Traffic you must spend some time, efforts and money to optimize your pages for better search engine rankings ( Called SEO = Search Engine Optimization ) or hire an SEO Expert as you see search engines are best and free source of Targeted Traffic. Second thing you can do is to advertise your website through Pay Per Click Programs ( PPC ). Some best PPC are -
1. Google Adwords
2. Yahoo Search Marketing
3. Microsoft Adcenter
Before spending money in these you must search for discount coupons ( which will save you upto $200 per program ) If you don’t find any free coupon contact me for some.( see my email below )
——————————– ——————————– ——————————–
If you need Non-Targeted Traffic, which is far more cheaper you can try Traffic Exchanges, PTC, PTR, link exchangers and many more programs of that kind.
( Or simply read other answers to this question. they are always eager to refer their referral links to get some commission from you )
——————————– ——————————– ——————————–
My personal recommendation will be Targeted Traffic because
1. They will purchase from your website, if you sell something
2. They will remain on your website for long and register and subscribe to your pages It will yield you more money per click if you use Adsense or similar programs.
3. They are likely to recommend your site to others ( back links for free )

What is Mashups,APIs,Widgestisation and Web 2.0? and what is the consideration behind the scenes?

The term web 2.0 itself is still open to debate, for a lot of Internet specialists it doesn’t mean anything.
The general idea behind web 2.0 is its social dimension. Whereas Internet used to be only used by companies displaying content for passive users, today anybody can be an Internet contributor. All the blogs, forums and chatrooms are typically web 2.0 oriented because they are participative, allow for social networking and give people a way to express themselves and have their voice heard.
Sites like wikipedia, Flickr or YouTube are web 2.0 sites because they rely on user generated content, i.e. content that is created and provided by Internet users and not only companies or Internet specialists.
For marketers, this is an important thing and for many reasons:
- it opens the door to new marketing possibilites, such as viral marketing or more targeted messages addressed to influent people and opinion leaders identified in those social networks
- it fastens the diffusion of information, so a bad new concerning a company is quickly known worldiwde
- Internet users trust their peers much more than a CEO or a company’s spokesman, which will ultimately lead companies to stop bullshiting and realize that they no longer talk to passive and naive consumers!

How do i get more website traffic for free is thier somthing i can download or somthing ?

Getting traffic is a combination of a lot of things. The key to success is to create great content that visitors want to use, search engines will love and other websites will naturally link to. Of course, it’s easier said than done.

You can use pay per click advertising in the search engines to reach audiences looking for your products. You can use Google Adwords http://www.google.com/adwords or Yahoo http://searchmarketing.yahoo.com

Here are some shoestring marketing ideas that can help you get the visitors you need at the least cost possible:

1. Create the best content you can with the best products you can possibly offer. Your content is your best advertisement – if visitors love your content, then they will go back and spread the word to others.

2. Make it easy for users to recommend your site. Viral marketing is very important — and easy to tap on the Web. But give your users the tools. Get a Recommend this Site script from websites such as cgiscripts.com and similar directories of scripts. Some even go as far as giving incentives to those who recommend the site to their friends. If only 10 people go to your site, but these 10 people invite 10 more – that’s additional traffic that you get for FREE!

Recommend Site Scripts (various) http://php.resourceindex.com/Complete_Scripts/Website_Promotion/Recommend_Site/
Big Nose Bird Recommend this Site http://bignosebird.com/carchive/birdcast.shtml
CGI Resource Index http://cgi.resourceindex.com/Programs_and_Scripts/Perl/Website_Promotion/Recommend_Site/
Hostscripts http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Site_Recommendation/index.html

3. Rank well in the search engines (organic search results, not the pay per click). SEs can be a big source of traffic. The key is to create the best content in your niche. If you have good content, other websites will gladly link to you and offer your site as a resource to their audience. Check the on-page factors and be sure to get linked from authority sites in your topic area.

If you are going to read only one piece on search engine optimization, I suggest you read Brett Tabke of WebmasterWorld.com’s "Successful Site in 12 Months with Google Alone: 26 steps to 15k a day." http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum3/2010.htm

4. Send out press releases. While outfits charge as much as $650 per release, there are free press release submission places on the Web. Press releases allow you to (a) attract media attention; (b) get more back links to your website without sending each website an email request; and (c) get more visibility especially if your press release gets in Google News or Yahoo News.

5. Submit articles. Write articles and submit them to websites accepting author submissions. You get exposure for your business; establishes you as an authority in your field, and allows you to get backlinks for your website. If 50 websites publish your article and it contains a link back to your website, then you easily get 50 links from a single article. The more links you have, the greater your chances for increasing your search engine rankings.

Here is a comprehensive list of where to submit your articles http://answers.yahoo.com/question/;_ylt=AhzreGmnCUicOoyedqypscUjzKIX?qid=1006022407481

6. Post a link to your site for free where it is allowed (always read the Terms of Use). Examples are:

Craigslist http://www.craigslist.com
Google Base http://base.google.com
Classifieds for Free http://www.classifiedsforfree.com/…
Text Link Exchange http://www.txtswap.com/
Recycler.com http://www.recycler.com/
Yahoo Classifieds http://classifieds.yahoo.com/
US Free Ads http://www.usfreeads.com/

Free or cheap, what’s the fastest way to get lots of website traffic?

Free: Search Engine Optimization (SEO) mixed with related theme-based Page Rank backlinks from .edu or .gov sites.

Cheap: Create a Google Adwords account, and do some research using their free keyword tool to identify long tail keyword phrase related to your website pages that have a low (0.05 – 0.10) cost per click (CPC). Bid on these keyword phrase, to obtain one of the fastest ways to get relevant traffic to your site.

I’d say if you comfortable with SEO go with free, if you’re not as comfortable go with cheap. :)
