If They Want Your Money, Beware!

With the economy still in a volatile state, consumers are hanging on to their purse strings tighter than ever. I, too find that I am watching my pennies a little more to stretch them further. One thing that makes me angry is when I hear about people being scammed. When I hear complaints about this occurring, I will spread the word. Recently, I have been hearing about more people networking to connect with others that are interested in starting a business or improving the one they have already established. Now, don’t get me wrong I am in no way saying networking is bad, but what is bad is when you are tricked in to spending money  you don’t need to. Several consumers contacted me stating they had connected with others online and were instructed to send a payment to be “a part of the business group.” This caused my alarm to go off immediately. For one a book or product wasn’t being purchased. A seminar wasn’t happening. This was strictly a means to be allowed to sit in. Why should you have to pay for that? There may be times when this becomes necessary, but I want you all to know that there are other free ways to connect with others in your area who maintain similiar business goals. Before you open your wallet, take a closer look at who you are networking with.

Increase Your Website Traffic

If you have any experience with internet business you probably know by now that having website traffic is crucial to your success. If you don’t have visitors coming your way, no one will ever know about you and you will not make any sales. How do I get targeted website traffic without spending all of my money? You have probably asked yourself this question many times. I will show you 5 well-proven techniques that will help you to increase your website traffic without spending a penny.

1. Write articles

Write articles about what your are promoting and then post them on different article directories such as ezinearticles.com and goarticles.com. If you write good content articles you will be allowed to add your resource box with your link in it at the end of the article.
The more articles you write, the better chance for people to find you. Just make sure that you write good quality articles, if you don’t, your article might be rejected and you could even be accused of spamming.
A good start could be to write and submit one good article every day. Stay committed to this and you will see results eventually.

2. Make a video presentation

A good way to promote your website and product is to make a short video presentation and post them on sites like youtube.com and video.google.com. Don’t make your presentation too long, less than 5 minutes is good. Posting your video is free.

These video websites are very SEO friendly and could make you show up on the top 10 search results on Google! Wouldn’t it be worth it to just spend a few minutes recording a short video?
If you have never done a video before, a good way to start would be to download CamStudio (camstudio.org). This is free screen recording software. If you want to edit and arrange your video before you upload it, you can use your standard windows movie maker.

3. Write on forums

This is free and will drives highly targeted audiences to your website. Find forums within the same niche as your business. Join the discussions and contribute valuable information to the forum. On many forums you are allowed to have your own signature file.

4. Digg

When you have written and submitted your articles to the article directories you can expose them on an online community like Digg.com. This community has members who are always looking for something new.

5. Twitter

This FREE community really was a phenomenon that conquered the world in 2009. It is still one of the fastest growing communities online today. If you build a network of thousands of people you can easily drive traffic from your twitter profile and updates to your website.
