8 Ways To Get People To Visit Your Web Site

1. Polls

Hold an interactive poll on your web site. Ask visitors a poll question. Have them e-mail their vote or opinion. People love to give their 2 cents worth. They would also like to read the results the next day or week on your web site.

2. Prize Drawings

Hold an ongoing prize drawing on your web site. The prizes should be something of interest or value to your subscribers. Most people who enter will continually revisit your web site to get the results.

3. Original Content

Give your visitors content they can't read anywhere else. I'm not saying all your content has to be 100% original, but a portion of your web site should have original information. People will usually read information they haven't read before.

4. Quizes

Give your visitors a quiz or a series of trivia questions. Post the correct answers weekly on your web site. The people who participate will want to come back to your site to see if they were right.

5. News

Supply news stories related to your web site topic. People want current and up-to-date news. If you can be their first source, they will become repeat visitors to your web site.

6. Jokes

Give your visitors a little humor now and then. Don't be so serious; tell them a joke. If they associate your web site with being happy they will visit again and again.

7. Free Stuff

People love to get free stuff. List free stuff on your web site. It could be software, services, sample products, e-books etc. The freebies should be related to your web site topic. Keep the freebies coming and your visitors will return regulary.

8. Directories

Tell your subscribers about Web sites related to your web site topic. The web sites should be interesting and helpful. Become your readers web site directory and they will come back.

Since 1992, I have tried every type of at home and MLM business and have never seen results.  My problem has never been hard work or devotion, but a lack of training and expertise.  I have been working for others for 17 years and it's my turn to finally enjoy the fruits of my labor, without having to rely on the success of others, as in a traditional MLM.

I am a professional, who was looking for some extra money in my spare time.  What I found was so much more than I had ever imagined.  Not only did I start making money right away, but I am now getting ready to fire my boss.  

I recently started an internet business working part time from home.  I have received step-by-step training from a couple of self-made millionaires.  They are on a mission to create 100 more millionaires by 2012, and I am on the road to becoming one of them. 

It's hard to believe how easy this system is.  They continuously give me the necessary tools and support to ensure my success, which has also given me immediate results. 

The ongoing training and support are incomparable in this industry.  I cannot believe that I immediately started making sales.  I am thrilled with the changes in my life and look forward to helping others on the road to financial freedom.

Believe me, if I can do it, ANYONE can do it.

Revenue Streams for Websites Revenue Streams for Websites - Too funny, I was just reading a book: Multiple Streams of Internet Income: How Ordinary People make extraordinary money on line, by Robert G. Allen. 2001 That's a misnomer, though - they're not ordinary people, they're people with established careers who can take their expertise and exploit it on the web. Ways to generate income? 1) Sell your own material on the site. Ebooks, etc. 2) Join various affiliate programs that match what your website is about. 3) Google adsense - All my money comes from this... it's started out slow but as readership of my sites grown, the income has grown. Nothing to write home about yet... 4) Google adwords - the advertisers whose ads show up on Google Adsense. Unless you're selling big ticket items on your site you don't want to use it, your keywords can cost from 20 cents upwards.
Re: Franchising Brokers vs Franchising Consultants Re: Franchising Brokers vs Franchising Consultants - I think whether it is a broker or a consultant in a real estate sector both their jobs are the same and they charge a fee for their services.Visit m3reo.com
Re: Exotic Tea Shop Website for Review Re: Exotic Tea Shop Website for Review - Hi David, - Background is nice and fitting, but I don't like the header. The title completely blends in with the background? - About Us shouldn't be second from the left on the navigation bar. People read from left to right. The commercial intent is to buy, the online store should probably be second. - Online Tea Store... too many choices without supplementary information. No description of product choice. oz and pricing should be stylized separately from the name of the product. - Online Tea Store.... Visuals is definitely very important in raising commercial intent. Someone who comes to the site through SEO is searching for exotic teas and not particulars. Meaning they're browsing. Text is not enough for a browsing shopper. - World of Tea... the information can be organized a bit better. Again, visuals. Some of this info belongs to online tea store. I'm not too sure on the name. - Tea & Treasure... not sure on this name either... mainly because you have "World of Tea" next to it. Navigation should be transparent in conveying information to the users. Why not call it "Find Us" or "Visit Us"? - Email newseletter.... "occasional updates" containing what exactly? Again, my humble opinion. Hope you find it useful!
