Jump Start Your Traffic For Free

So you have a brand new site, now what? Well you need people to be able to see it.  I’ve found a simple way to jump start traffic to your website when you need to market your site for free because you have more time than money.

First and most importantly you need to keep your expectations real! It’s not like The Field of Dreams where if you just build it they will come. It takes time for people and for the search engines to find your new website and index it.

The easiest way I’ve found to get traffic coming to your site is to use places like http://www.linkreferral.com Some people will tell you that places where you have to visit other sites to get them to visit yours is a waste of time. I tend to disagree with this. I’ve used Link Referral for several years for many different sites.

To me the point of Link Referral is not just to exchange traffic, it can be a way to network online. I use it to build blog roll and link exchanges. While you visit blogs there it’s a perfect time to leave a comment with the link to your site. Remember that the sites you are visiting have people behind them that are working hard to get their site noticed too. With this there can be a collective effort to in establishing new websites. One can even target who you’d like to see on Link Referral as they have different categories so it’s easy to locate those that might be interested in a link exchange. I’ve also found customers there as well for one of my e store sites.

There is a recreation benefit there as well. I’ve had fun seeing some websites I might not have ever run across.
