If you have your own website you might think that it is going to hard to get your website noticed. If your website does not get noticed then your chances of getting any traffic become very slim. For most people who are just starting with their own website will find it difficult especially if they do not have a large budget for their internet marketing campaign. The good news is that there are a few Internet Marketing tactics which can drive increasing amounts of Web Traffic to your site that are completely FREE.
Below I am just going to give you a few tips that can increase your traffic without costing you anything.
Tip 1: Start with the Search Engines
The first thing you should do when you start a new website is to get your website listed on the Search Engines. If you are lucky enough to get listed on the first page of a Search Engine like Google for your particular Keyword this will help drive loads off Web Traffic to your website and in most cases website submissions are free. There are one or two search engines out there that may charge you for submitting your website to their search engines. The Good news is that 90% of them are free.
Tip 2: Article Directories
Submitting Article to a few Article Directories can be one of the best free internet marketing methods available to someone who has their own website. This is because when submitting Articles you get the chance to include your website link at the bottom of your article which will cause people who like your Article to either go to your website to have a look around or copy the article for their own website which has your website address at the bottom of the article. By anyone adding your article to their website you will gain an extra link back to your website which can help increase your Google Page Rank.
Tip 3: Reciprocal Links
Reciprocal links are another good way to increase your Search Engine Ranking. It does take a bit of time but if you find websites that are on the same or similar topic to your own you can always contact them to see if they are interested in doing a link exchange. A link exchange is a simple case of you placing a link to someone else’s Website and having them to place a link back to your Website.
Tip 4: Build an Opt-in Email List
An opt-in Email List is probably going to be your best free Internet Marketing methods. If done correctly you can build a loyal subscriber base and increase your website traffic in the process. One of the biggest problems with people who search the Internet is that in a lot of cases people will only come to your website once or twice so it is very important that you try to capture their loyalty and trust.
Tip 5: Video
In the past few years online video has become one of the most powerful free marketing tools available to a person that runs their own website. Websites like YouTube offer people a chance to talk about things they like and give people a chance to promote their own website or product. The good thing about this is that people tend to respond more to interactive content like video far better that just some stupid add floating around the internet.
So there you have it just a few little tips to help get that Web Traffic flowing.
SO GOOD LUCK. I hope you have Success in generating Traffic to your Website.

First 24 hours how do you market your website FREE to get traffic to it?
I am not only looking for Free ways to market my website, but ways that really work in sending traffic please…not much money starting out!
I would suggest social networks and blogs. Most of them are completely free and you can put in Keywords in blogs so that they will show up in optimized search engines, such as google.
I’m not sure what your target audience is or what type of site you are marketing, but you can always search for the ideal users on most websites and send out mass communication, equipped with your link – for FREE!
GOOD LUCK

I work in marketing/production for an interactive website.
Building a popular website is a pretty tough objective, and I recommend approaching the problem from lots of different angles.
Many people may suggest advertising, but I think advertising is only normally a good idea if you are selling something. If you are providing free content, then there are better ways to go.
Do a search for the various web directories and submit your site for inclusion in them. http://www.dmoz.org is a good place to start as is http://dir.yahoo.com/ If you don’t get accepted, improve your website and try submitting again later.
Submit your website to all the major search engines so that they can begin indexing it. Google’s address is: http://www.google.co.uk/addurl/?continue=/addurl You’ll also want to add your site to Yahoo, Ask and MSN/LIVE and the other search engines should pick up your site when they crawl the net.
There are two other key parts to getting high traffic. The first is getting noticed, and for this you need to have lots of inbound links so that your page rank with the search engines is higher.
To accomplish this to start with you could offer link exchanges with other sites, use your various web accounts to advertise your site – and if you post in forums, add your site to your signature, especially if it is relevant to the forum’s topic. If sites offer comment boxes to stories which are relevant to your site, make a response that includes your website. Also consider answering questions on Yahoo answers with links to your site when it is appropriate. However a word of warning. Don’t spam or shamelessly self promote because this annoys people.
The second part is creating good content. People searching on the net are hungry for good stuff and they are pretty good at spotting it. If your website has valuable information/content it will organically rise in popularity as more people link to it and recommend it.
Also update often. To attract repeat visitors consider offering a newsletter or web feed.
Finally there are numerous web resources on this topic if you want some more ideas, so do some web searches for inspiration. A reasonable starting point is Pavlina’s article: http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/2006/01/how-to-build-a-high-traffic-web-site-or-blog/ and if you are running a blog: http://www.problogger.net/
Good luck.

My experience
1. Write and submit articles . This will create traffic for years to come. Write quality unique articles, not articles that provide no substance for readers.
2. Submit ads to a high pagerank and high traffic Classified ad site such as USFreeads.
3. View related products on Amazon.com. You can try and take some customers from your competitors here by providing your own url if the product is similar.
4. Review websites in your niche on Alexa to try to take some of their traffic by including a reference back to your site.
5. Comment on other related blogs, but do not spam.
6. If you purchase a product that you actually like, then leave a testimonial. Leave your url in your testimonial and you should receive some traffic.
7. Whenever you send an email to someone, include your website url as a signature.
8. Keep updating content on your websites/blogs… try at least once per week, if not twice.
9. Tag blog posts at social bookmarking sites. Sign up to Onlywire.
10. Add pictures to your blog with appropriate keywords.
