Knowing how to generate quality targeted traffic to your website is one of the most important skills that you need to learn on the internet. Currently there are over 300 million websites and this number is increasing every day. With the fierce competition it is becoming a lot more difficult to get this right.

However, instead of reinventing the wheel I seriously suggest that you consider doing what is already working for most people. In this article I would like to go over those strategies that will drive highly targeted traffic to your website.

1) Article marketing

This is my favourite method of traffic generation. The main reason for this is that it is free and the leads seem to convert up to 10 times better than leads from other sources. The way that I do this is that I submit my articles to all the major article directories. I then include a link to my website in my resource box.

2) Ppc advertising

After article marketing I would rate this as the second best way to bring targeted visitors. However, if you are not careful you can easily waste a lot of money advertising this way. The key is track and test the conversion of all your keywords and only keep the ones that actually convert into sales.

3) Use co-registration services

I seriously suggest that you consider using co-registration services for your business. The way that this works is that these services usually control very high traffic websites and they leave an opt-in form for people to sign up for your newsletter. The one service that I highly recommend is Getresponse Power Leads.
