I was sitting down watching tv this week when I thought ‘why not do a detailed killer traffic strategy’ for attracting thousands of visitors to your website on a regular basis week in and week out…

I went off and noted the seven main areas to include:

-    High-Profile Article Marketing
-    Forum Marketing
-    Ebook Syndication
-    Video Marketing
-    Viral Pushes
-    Ad Swaps
-    Paid Advertising

Wether you want to build a list of promiote your site i’ll out line the strategies do follow to enable you to do this. SO lets go and out line what you need to do.

** High-Profile Article Marketing

Within the internet Marketing arena we all know that article marketing is one of the best ways to drive highly-targeted traffic to your website. However, if you re-focus your efforts towards high-profile article marketing can generate 10x as much traffic as standard article marketing.

Don’t waste your time submitting your articles to bulk standard article directories when you can submit to the more specific targetted top websites and blogs in your target market.

If you have a blog about sports then we need to be submitting our articles to sites such as http://bleacherreport.com/ which is one of the most popular sports websites online today. What if your website is all about weddings and wedding related servcies then you should be submitting articles to sites such as http://www.favorideas.com/submit-wedding-articles/

How about if your niche web site is all about parenting, you could submit articles to http://www.momsnetwork.com/submit-articles.shtml

How about if your niche web site is all about about finance, you could submit articles to  http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/submitarticle.html

Do you see a pattern emerging here? We need to be submitting your articles to a targetted audience of readers to gain massive amounts of traffic for your articles. So use the very popular websites for submitting articles to gain this massive traffic.

Here’s a list of very popular websites that I personally submit articles to. The list below is a gold mine for building a list of thousands of subscribers. If you published just ONE really good article every day to the following websites, and had a good call to action in your resource box that sent people to your squeeze page, then you would have a highly responsive list of AT LEAST 1,000 subscribers by the end of the month.

** Forum Marketing

Forum marketing is another excellent strategy for building a list of subscribers and sending tons of traffic to your website.

Forum marketing is a highly underrated, but extremely effective strategy for building a list of subscribers, driving highly-targeted traffic, and establishing yourself as an authority in your particular market.

Forums put you directly in front of your target market, making it a goldmine for driving thousands of highly targeted visitors to your website.

But keep in mind here that the key to successful forum marketing is to become an active participant in the community. Your first priority is to deliver lots of value. And that means posting highly valuable content in the forums and helping people with their questions.

Once you’ve become a trusted member and delivered some great value in your posts, people will naturally want to learn more about what you have to offer.

This is where your signature link comes in…

You’ll want to use your signature link to send people to your squeeze page where you can build your list of subscribers.

Here’s an example of a good signature line:

“Find out how to get front-page Google Rankings in 24 hours with my FREE Google Mystic 2.0 Video series… http://www.yoursqueezepagehere.com ”

The key here is to entice them with some sort of benefit to get them tocome to your website. Keep your signature file short and to the point.You should only be promoting one page in your signature file. Don’t confuse people with multiple options.

Also keep in mind that it’s the value of your post that drives people to look at your signature. If you provide people with extraordinary value, then they will naturally want to check out more of your content.

So focus on providing value. One extremely valuable post is worth 10x more than 20 average posts.

If you liked this post then you would also enjoy our FREE article domination strategy –>  Dominating Article Strategies

Our ezine articles have now been published with our links.. these have also been socially bookmarked tonight with our list of primary sites and we should see some response within 2/3 days.

Still waiting for our goarticles to be bookmarked so we can do them naturally.. We will bookmark them tomorrow and do an update our our traffic to the site and our positioning….

Looking at the stats though we are getting some good increases in naturally organic traffic to our sites, which I am very pleased at. Google and yahoo seem to like the strategy so far.

The strategy we have used with goarticles is to create one article that targets our top level site and the 2nd article to deep link our target site. and have both of the articles targeting our keyword set that we optimizing the articles for.

I will detail the keyword set strategy in the future and maybe do this using a video to enable me to show a better diagrammatic over view of the the system I’m experimenting with.

The Traffic Mystic System has been developed to combat the indexing updates that are ongoing within the search engines. These updates are focusing on de-indexing and removing link to site that are classed as not ‘content’ worthy and that do Not provide a fresh host of content on a regular basis.

Links from poor sources are also being used to re-rank your site (lower the rank) and in many cases these links are being severely devalued and removed. This means that in a lot of cases your search position in the search listings will drop dramatically. Lots of people have also found themselves removed from the top 1000 index altogether.

Just think about this for a moment.. you have spent the last 6 – 12 month gaining lots of links from article directories like:

• Ezinearticles.com
• goarticles.com

And with these sites being around PR6, you have gained some solid link backs to your own site and as a consiquence you have had your site rank increased and your search engine position increased and gained a lot of new traffic to your site.

You have also gained some good links from some web 2.0 sites like squidoo from pages you have created and socially bookmarked.

So your linking is building up nicely and your articles are in place via your multiple directory submissions but then you check your site and notice that for the last few days your traffic has dropped off!!!

You go and check your site and find your article submission links have vanished and so has your rank and your search engine top 10 position.

Well this is what is happening to thousands upon thousands of sites and it can also happen to you.

We have tested this system over a 3 month period over a number of different site types. We have tested the strategy with:

• Build a Niche Stores
• PHPBay Stores
• E-commerce stores
• Squeeze pages
• Static pages
• Blogs

In each case we have gained top 10 rankings for our keyword phrases within 4-6 weeks. In 90% of the time we have gained a top 3 ranking within 4 weeks and all of the sites links have been permanent. This includes the article links to our Build a Niche Store / PHPbay and Ecommerce stores, which have been specifically targetted by google and yahoo and had their links removed.

The Traffic Mystic Strategy enabled these links to become permanent and the links will Not be removed due how they have been impemented.

I will cover the strategies that I have used in comming posts so please add our RSS feed and bookmark us for updates.
