Get traffic to your site

After creating my blog, I face one main problem - Getting traffic to my blog. As we all know, getting targeted traffic to our own site or blog is one of the most important thing. For now, I admit I'm just one of the 'invisible blog'. This is something I should work hard on.

Ok..this is one of my plan to get targeted traffic to my site. It's an idea I get from other good resources. They have been successful and I would like to try the idea.

1. Register with traffic exchanges and then log in to earn "credits". You may be given average 1 - 5 credis for browsing other websites for 20-30 seconds.
2. After reaching enough credits(it didn't take long time), you specify your own website and it is will displayed to other users on the same traffic exchanges. Every time your website is shown for 20-30 seconds your credits will be deducted for 1-5 credit as the traffic exchange charges.

What I've learn so far is...:

You can earn extra credits by referring more members or they may be purchased outright for cash. Traffic exchange websites let you specify which types of websites you wish to view by selecting categories. Similarly you get to specify the category for your own website. This how it brings in targeted traffic, in other words it brings visitors who are already interested in the category you specify. If you can make the website look good then there is a good chance that viewers will stay. If your website sells product, you may even get customer.

Some tricks to retain visitor is to offer something for free. It may be an eBook, free report, an audio or a video clip. Traffic exchanges are not voluntary. Most members are there because they have no choice and every 20-30 seconds they see a different site and sales pitch. And by offering something for free with no hint of selling is a good way to distinguish yourself.

Lead capturing is also a great way to capture visitor or customer, and you must have an autoresponder or similar mechanism to let people leave their email address so you may contact them later on. Attach your freebie to your lead capture system. Many e-mails sent by autoresponders are often caught by spam filter or placed on junk mail folders so it is recommended to choose an autoresponder company with a high email deliverability rate.

Make your website fresh and interesting because most traffic exchange surfers are suffering from advertisement overload. If it looks or reads the same it will just get ignored. Also you webpage should load quickly due to the fact that traffic exchange members will usually not spend than 10-30 seconds looking at it before the traffic exchange allows them to earn their traffic credit and proceed to the next site. For that reason, traffic exchange owners generally recommend the use of splash pages or squeeze pages.

Always prefer traffic exchanges that allow you to specify more than one website and advertisement option. Running multiple advertisements will significantly improve your chances of success. You can also compare different ads to see which works best.

Getting traffic to your website is only a part of your overall marketing strategy but it is the first and hence everything else depends on it. If you are a network marketer then you could be earning some money just referring new members to traffic exchange websites. Plus, you can advertise your get paid program in traffic exchange websites and get more refferals. If you like this idea, feel free to try and please live a comment to help me improved.

Tips to GET PAID..!!

If you are planning on making money from internet with get paid programs like me, I have several recommendation of techniques you should apply in order for you to become more successful. This is the techniques I've gathered from several successor out there. I stick to it myself, and guess what. It does work..!!

Ok.. You have to be well organised. Treat it like a serious business, work on it seriously. Otherwise your hardwork will turn up useless. You will earn money but in a small amount. You are interested in making a lot... a lot... a lot.. of MONEY, dontcha..! And you must be willing to do some advertising. Don't worry, it's not that hard.

Here are the tips...

1. Studies and research. It's normal to get so excited to join any get paid program for free, plus when they offered so many great stuff. People intend to jump straight to join the program without bothering to check if it was a scam. I'm lucky cause there is some good people out there who had alarm me about this. Thanks for sharing their tips and trick, now I'm going to pass it on..! Before considering on joining any get paid program, do some studies and research about the program. You can get more info about Get Paid Program on GetPaidForum , articles, google search and etc.


2. Get Organised. Sign up for an email account dedicated for your Get Paid programs. You may consider to sign up more then one account if you wish to join several(or many hehe..) programs. Choose email account that aplly not so harsh filter that may stop emails from arriving and the one that have more memory storage. This is to prevent your email account to fill up. Get Paid Programs owner usually delete you if your email box bounces. I used Yahoo and gmail it is among the popular. But you are free to choose other sites that work best for you. Then, take one notebook or spreadsheet, note down the details for each program you joined. Details like program's name, date you've joined, the minimum payout, payment method, your referrals url or other method you can apply to advertise the program(like banners or text links), the minimum points required for advertising on their site, everyday progress like current cash and point balance. Update it daily, but if you're too lazy to do it at least update it weekly. You have to be serious to make money remember. And for your own good, save screenshots of your earnings, as a proff in case the owner loses the database. Create folder in your browser favourites, for the Get Paid Programs you've joined. It will make you easier to log on. Join payment programs to receive payment. Such as Egold , Paypal , Stormpay (3 most used payment programs) and etc.
   
3. Read Your Email - Check your email inbox evryday. Don't wait too long because some emails will expire quickly. If you don't read, you won't earn cash/points. Some program owners will delete you if you do not read email for more than a week. That is why in some programs you will notice holiday settings. Be aware of "English-checkers" - special links that may cause your account to be deleted. So many people try to cheat that owners have been forced to put extra links in to make sure the text is being read, as well as the link.
   Read the non-paid emails, as well. It supports the advertisers, and without them, there is no income. Non-paid emails usually reward you with points that you can use for your own advertising. And basically, do unto others as you would be done by...... you'd want people to read your non-paid emails, wouldn't you?
   
4. Visit the Site - Taking advantage of your favourites button, visit the sites daily if you can, to check for updates, and mainly, to click on the Paid to Click section. This can speed up your earnings incredibly. Otherwise it usually takes months to get anywhere.
   
5. Upgrade - Consider upgrading to Gold (or silver or platinum) membership. The best memberships include random referrals, advertising discounts, higher pay for reading emails, and free monthly ads. The best time to upgrade in terms of getting new referrals, is when a program is new, as there will not be as many competing gold members, and there may be large numbers of unattached members joining that can be assigned to you. But the most important reason to upgrade is if it includes free monthly advertising.
   
6. Advertise - Advertising Get Paid programs is different from advertising other standard MLM programs. For example, startpages often don't give good results unless you have a good website. When you first start with Get Paid programs, spend most of your time trying to build downlines. Instead of just taking the cash and running, redeem your CASH earnings for ads. Great results have been achieved from paid ads at sites like CashRoyal. I have example of people who gets 100 referrals this way. Good results have been achieved advertising at sites that don't have many non-paid ads, basically because they don't have a lot of non-paid ads, so people are used to reading everything.

And for an addition;

Remember to redeem your POINTS earning and exchange it for advertising. Most of Get Paid Program offers you to change points for advertising, and some allowds you to change points to cash.

Displaying your refferal url or banner in your signature when you send email or posting on forum sites will gets you new refferals. It works for me.

Incentive-based safelists, such as Adtactics get better results than ordinary safelists, as people are given incentive to read these safelists. Although, with all safelists, the HEADING is the most important thing.

Adswaps. If you have an ezine, you may be able to exchange ads with another ezine owner for free.

Referral Exchange. Many forums have a referral exchange, which is basically, "I'll signup under you, if you signup under me", or "Signup and I'll pay you xx cents"" or "I'll reward you for each referral you build under me".
If you have a skill, offer it in exchange for signups. EG, if you signup for more than 3 of my programs, I will build you a webpage, or a simple banner.

A big "secret" is the use of downline-builders. Many MLM programs have forums with a section at the bottom for building downlines. Go to a forum, and if it has a downline-building section, search for your program. If it is not there yet, you've hit gold! Start a new thread for your program, and put your signup link in there. The idea is for people to signup under each other, one at a time. This should put one person per level under you. This process works best where your program lets you earn from several levels. Most Get Paid To Read Email/Surf programs have about 5 levels of earnings.

You HAVE to advertise - otherwise you won't get referrals, and your earnings will be slow. There are no guarantees, but if you do a handful of the above techniques, you should be on your way to success.

A common strategy is to have a handful of programs. When you first start out, reinvest all your cash and points earnings as advertising, so that you can build some decent downlines. Then set aside some programs as your money-generators, and others as your advertising vehicles to generate more signups to the big money-spinners.

Ok thats it... If you apply the techniques, I believe that you are one step ahead to success in Get Paid Programm.

One last thing, it's a tradition to pass this alert: remember nowadays there is a lot of new programs come along, in a blaze of publicity, then after a while, realise they cannot cope, or are losing money, so they quit, leaving lots of angry members unpaid. Signs to be wary of are: high paying emails (eg 10 cents), for low rates (eg send an ad to 1000 members for $10). If every single member read that ad, it should really cost 1000 * 5cents = $50. In practise, not every member does read every ad, and a lot will quit before they reach payout, but you may need to watch and wait before joining a new program with an unknown owner, and statistics like that. Even worse are programs offering a large startup bonus, just creating instant debt. These days the membership can grow very quickly, and overload the servers, and owners very quickly. So it doesn't take long for people to find out if a program is coping. Always do a search at a forum, looking for negative comments, before joining a new program. Wish you all the best..!

I'll update more soon...Until then...LOL
