If you want your website to rank in the search engines, you'll need to optimize it for particular keyword phrases. Keyword research is the process of finding out which keywords will be the easiest and most beneficial to optimize for.

Generally, you'll be looking at two things:

1. Search volume: How many people search for the keyword in a given month.
2. Competition: How many competing websites are also optimized for this keyword phrase.

Are you happy paying 10$ per month for a PR2-3 backlink ? Are you tired of submitting to web directories for a few links approved, that aren't even indexed by Google ? Just found a backlink paradise, let's see what's inside :)

There is no magic button to press. Getting targeted visitors (potential clients) to your online business is the result of hard work and only hard work. All those “get thousands of visitors for free” headlines are lies.

Getting traffic to your website can often be time consuming and expensive, so we decided to put
together a series of “30 Minute Traffic Tips” to help you get traffic to your website as quickly as
possible using free methods.

This EBook is a collaboration of effort from Suzanne Morrison, Ken Troyer, Cynthia Minnaar, Jeff
Casmer and Jeff Schuman. All of us work from home and run a successful internet business. We are
all website owners and have years of experience online.

Why spending 30-45 seconds submitting to a web directory when you can spend that minute submitting your main domain (at least, you can submit all your pages in time) to a social bookmarking site for some traffic (directories gives 0 traffic, fact) and a back link ?

Directory submission ultimate guide : directory submission guidelines for best results with internet directory submission.

Wherever there’s a complaint, there’s a need. Was someone on a forum complaining about no instructions on how to turn a blog into a Static site?

Well, you can’t give them full instructions in a quick Directory article – full instructions would probably be an eBook. But you can write an article such as: “3 Reasons To Turn Your Blog Into A Static Website” –

Then point them to your own blog or site, where you can point them to your own full instructional eBook, or to an affiliate product you’re reviewing that will give them what they need to know in more detail.

So complaints are a big clue for your article subjects.

Using articles to drive targeted traffic to a website is a tactic that online marketers have been using for years but as it is still a very effective way of grabbing the attention of targeted prospects, it is still well worth doing.

Nevertheless, the only downside to using articles to market your business is that they often take some time to become effective traffic magnets, which is why creating your first articles should be the first marketing strategy that you launch.
