Recently, I have been coming across more and more articles and forum posts on this subject, and it seems that, for a lot of people, it is the biggest hurdle to overcome when they are just starting out with internet marketing.

There is lots of advice going around about how to use:

• PPC
• SEO TACTICS
• SAFELISTS
• FFA SERVICES
• TRAFFIC EXCHANGES
• POP UPS AND POP UNDERS
• ARTICLES
• EZINE ADS
• CLASSIFIEDS
• MESSAGE BOARDS
• TRAFFIC EXCHANGES
• AD SWAPS
• JV GIVEAWAYS

There are probably more, but that’s enough to overwhelm anyone.

The question is – WHAT WORKS FOR YOU? For as many folks who are asking these questions, there are just as many giving advice. It must be very daunting for a new person who is just starting out.

If you have had great success with any of these traffic building methods, what would YOU advise a complete newbie to do? Think about what you would advise your own son or daughter to do to be successful. Let’s be HONEST about what REALLY works!!

Assume that I have a GREAT SQUEEZE PAGE that converts really well, but I have NO TRAFFIC - what is YOUR ADVICE? What works well for YOU?

Let’s help out some struggling new folks with some REAL, valuable information.

I personally use articles and PPC, but then I can afford to buy some of my traffic, many can’t. Articles are free, but a lot of work unless you pay to have them written for you. Again, an investment is required. The trick is to make sure you have a positive ROI (Return on Investment) if you are going to buy traffic. Yes, it’s risky at times, but if it works, (and it does for me) then it isn’t a problem. I make money because my returns from sales offset my investment leaving me with a profit, that I can either pocket or use to buy more traffic.

I am curious about other forms of traffic generation as well.. I admit I haven’t tried many other ways myself. Have You?

Have a GREAT DAY!
