Traffic… it all boils down to traffic (and conversions) if you are trying to make a buck on the net right?

Social Networking

Yip!

Well… there are few ways to get traffic to your blog or website; PPC (pay per click), article marketing, social networking, joint ventures, SEO, and offline promotions.

One of our favorite methods is social networking. Why? Well… because its fun and its free! It allows other people to get a view inside you as a person in the real world. It makes you seem more real and much less than just “words” on a blog.

Recently we have seen a big increase in people joining twitter. You can even integrate twitter into your blog. Perhaps others are just now beginning to understand the impact it is making, or perhaps it is due to the large number of internet marketers adding twitter (such as John Reese, John Chow and Shoemoney)

Twitter is a really great way to get your blog posts or information out to a large group of people (people beyond those you just follow you) and generate a nice little stream of free traffic.

With that said.. just a word of warning.. too much Twitter can be a bad thing.. no one wants to hear every moment of your life… and no one wants sales pitches thrown at them all day, so be yourself, enjoy and have fun. Just remember not to spend all day on there as it can get overly addicting as well!

Here is just a very short list of social networking sites that we actually receive traffic from that you can begin with:

Myspace
Mybloglog
Spicy Page
