[rapidsphare]

Hi Friends,

I would like to share with you about 5 ways to promote your site.

1) Generate Targeted Traffic from Online Discussion Forums: Online discussion forums provide an excellent way to promote your website without paying any money. Just browse th messages and you can start posting. To promote your site in online discussion forums, all you have to do is enter your website address or ad in your signature line at the bottom of each message.

2) Write Articles or Free reports for other webmasters to publish: Another effective way to promote your website is to write articles or free reports for ezine publishers and webmasters to use. If you write good content, your articles will be published and many readers who like your article will go on to visit your website. You can also write simple research
based articles and allow others to publish these freely on their websites. The traffic from these free articles will come from your byline.

3) Do Joint Ventures with List owners and Webmasters If done correctly, joint venture marketing is one of the most effective ways to promote a product or service. A Joint venture can take many forms but it’s generally an agreement for some kind of partnership between one or more parties working together to their mutual benefit. It allows you to leverage highly targeted lists or traffic with no risk.

4) Leverage the power of your email Signature: One of the quickest and effective ways to start driving traffic to
your website at no extra cost is to add your ad or website address to your email signature. This way, every time you send an email, you’ll be advertising your website. You can take this a step further by asking your friends and associates to put your website address in their email signature.

5) Exchange Links with Other Webmasters: This is another effective strategy for generating targeted traffic to your website for free. It involves contacting other webmasters for a possible link exchange partnership. All you have to do is locate websites that are related to yours but that are not in direct competition and contact the webmaster to swap links.
