Using Second Hand Content For a Promotion

There are tons of articles free for the taking on the internet. Some businesses refuse to use other people's content while others can't get it posted to their site fast enough. This is a basic difference in opinion about the effectiveness of this marketing practice. Every business owner has their beliefs about advertising and how they should market their business as well as allow others to market through them. This article will review the positives and negatives of using other author's articles for website content.

There are many positives to the use of frequent content for any website. It not only draws visitors it also provides them with information. People look for information on the internet, so ever changing content is a good way to keep visitors guessing what is next. While many of these article have links to other sites, that can actually be a positive. This linking and networking can help improve page rank, therefore driving more traffic. Though the visitors may click the link in the article, they can always click back, and at least have been exposed to your site.

There are a few negative associations with using free content from article directories. These articles are meant as advertisements for other sites and products, and in some cases this is not an issue, but for "like" sites it could be a negative. Also one of the best ways to convince customers is for the site owner to portray themselves an expert in the field, but with someone else's articles this may not be possible. In order to establish this type of relationship the site owner would need to be the author of the articles.

How to Get Thousand of Targeted Visitors to Your Site

You're definitely wrong if you think that it's difficult to get targeted traffic to your blog or website without paid advertising like AdWords. It can be done without spending a red cent but will require some time and effort.

Okay, here are 3 of the most effective free targeted traffic methods that I use with success. Don't skip a word:

* Go to specific forum of your niche, spend 30 minutes looking around and you shall be able to spot some questions that has been asked again and again. This is gold mine. Just read through some thread to get some ideas. Write an article specifically quoting the questions in your title and requote it evenly throughout the article body. Most of the time, you'll get ranked first page on SE for that keyphrase. Simple SEO.

* Find a few blogs of your theme with high alexa ranking, acceptable PR of your choice with "do follow " attribute and comment on them frequently. There are a few ways to do this. You can go to "dofollow" directories and make a search. Some good ones are:

1. -inlineseo.com/dofollowdiver/
2. -w3ec.com/dofollow/
3. -dofollowblogs.com/

* Or make an image search at images.google.com/ by typing in keyphrase like "U Comment, I Follow", "inurl:ucomment", inurl:ifollow etc. Make 5 comments on 5 blogs each day for a period of 2 weeks can give you substantial targeted traffic. (Just make sure those blogs are inline with your website / blog theme.

* Video - It does not necessarily to be Youtube but submitting to this one alone is more than enough. There are 3 ways to do this namely:

(a) screen capture approach. You don't even need to show you face for those who prefer to stay anonymous.
(b) the basic video capture - anything that you capture with your video camera.
(c) bum marketing videos - I'm quite sure even Travis is not doing this. Just go to some royalty free image hosting and gather images of your chosen keywords. Put up a slide with your Powerpoint and capture the screen with Camtasia / Camstudio etc. and read any articles (even PLR) while capturing it.

Done. You can get more than a thousand unique visitors this way in a very short period of time. Doubt it? You're losing on thousand of unique visitors everyday.
