I attended last night “Traffic” call where Doug Champigny interviewed Ross Goldberg. If you had not noticed before, traffic generation is rapidly changing. All this was confirmed last night.

Google’s ongoing strategy has a lot to do with it. Clearly Google algorithms are changing, that is and will remain an ongoing process. But in spite of the many Google unknowns, there are still clear indications where traffic generation is heading too.

There are no single factors anymore to get consistent high rankings in Google. Getting hundreds of links back to your site is not that important anymore. To be more diverse in your SEO appears now much more appreciated by Google.

Website Traffic Generation remains the number one requirement for your financial success on the Internet. List building needs traffic. Sales needs traffic. Traffic can be generated multiple ways. More then ever there are more traffic strategies to be used. Optimizing your traffic generations efforts for your special “niche” becomes more important.

Traffic generation methods are changing and expanding. It is no longer just a matter of back links, keyword rich contents, etc. It becomes more a matter of Google’s appreciation of your website in general to get better ranked.

Website Traffic Generation Efforts should be more diverse. Are you promoting your website with Web 2.0 tools? Are you doing video, podcast and article submissions? Are you already setup to promote your website through the major Social Marketing Sites like MySpace, LinkedIn, FaceBook, Squido, Twitter and YouTube? Have you noticed how well US president-elect Barack Obama worked the Internet and web 2.0 tools? How much campaign contributions he received through the websites? If engineered properly, the web 2.0 instruments can open up wholly new and potential avenues for the promotion of your brand, your website – something that Obama maneuvered with classic élan.

There are thousands of Social Networks. To generate traffic to your site use those social networks that are busy. You want to go where other active people are going to get the most effect from your efforts.

Do everything you can on your page to make it stand out and be memorable. You want to optimize it to the max so you will get the most benefit.

Have your photo on there. It has been shown that pages with photos get more traffic and interest than those without photos. Customize your page to fit you. Add in backgrounds and other stuff to show off your personality.

Make sure that anything you put on your page represents you. Make sure it is professional and will not tarnish your image in any way. Use the video and audio features most of these sites give you. Add your own video and audio on unique subjects that represents you.

Make it clear why you are on the site. You need to make sure people know you are there for business and not for finding a personal relationship.

Make sure you know and follow all the rules. These sites can be strict and if you break the rules you can get banned. Visit your page often. Everyday would be ideal so that you can keep everything up to date and it shows up that you are visiting the site and so people will know you are an active member.

Take advantage of groups by joining groups. It is a great way to reach your target market. It is also a great way to build up your friends list.

And of course….Do not forget to put up your links.

If you have your very own E-product (purchase some good PLR products and re-work them), you can easily submit your product to a high-traffic membership site that provides quality content. The concept is also similar to blog and article contributors except that it takes it up a notch to E-book creation.

The nature of these content membership sites requires new content to be added in from time to time.

What better way to get your own product in front of the eyes of thousands of resellers and Internet marketers who can’t wait to sell YOUR product for their own profits (assuming that your product has resell rights to it of course). All members are your resellers!

If your E-product has master resell rights you can be sure that your products will spread all over the Internet in no time.

Resellers are always looking for solid, interesting products with a complete sales letter with all the graphics included to it. If you have drafted out a good sales letter that converts well, you can be sure that a lot of resellers will just ‘cut-and-paste’ your sales letter and your E-book and sell it to their mailing list.

The most important thing for you to remember is this – your books must constantly lead the readers to your websites. And remember, this might happen year after year!

Your links must be placed strategically in the E-books and as your E-books are duplicated all over the Internet, you can be sure to drive plenty of new visitors to your website – even if they are not in your circle of influence! Make sure that the WebPages you drive the visitors to are well designed to get an high conversion rate. Make sure that you maintain and update these pages, visitors might come and visit years after you first distributed your E-book!

Let’s discuss how joint venture giveaways will help you generate traffic to your site. In fact, they do more than generate traffic. Joint venture giveaways will also help you build a large opt-in list, in a very short period of time, and you can bring those visitors back to your site time and time again.

Joining a joint venture giveaway is easy and free. You just need to find a giveaway, and these can be found through “Give Away” related forums, or through a search on Google. Once you’ve found a giveaway, you need a free gift to give away.

This can be something that you create yourself, or have created for you, such as a free report, an audio, a video, or an ebook – or even a piece of software. It can also be a Private Label Rights product that you have. The important thing is that your gift has value to the people that will be downloading it.

Next you need an autoresponder and a website. Set up an opt-in page, which is often called a squeeze page or a capture page, stored on your site. Connect it to your autoresponder, and in your autoresponder, set up a campaign for the giveaway. Create a confirmation email and download e-mail for the gift in your autoresponder.  You can use the same gift foe a period of time in several JV Giveaways, so after a one tome preparation there is not much to it to join in several Giveaways

Determine where the visitor will go, once they hit the submit button on your opt-in page. They can go to the first page of your site. They could be sent to a sales page for an affiliate product that you sell. You could also set up a One Time Offer (OTO), where they have one chance to purchase a product from you, at a special price.

Finally, when you are all set up on your end; submit your information to the host of the joint venture giveaway event. They will typically want the name of your gift, the URL of your opt-in page, a description of that gift, and the link to the graphic that represents your gift, such as a graphical ebook cover or CD cover.

While you will build a nice big list with the joint venture giveaway, remember that your purpose is to generate traffic as well. You don’t want people showing up, getting their gift, and leaving – never to be seen or heard from again. Your list resolves a lot of this, because you can use it to bring them back.

But at the same time, when your visitor is redirected after submitting the form, try to have them redirected to a page on your site that will immediately capture their attention, and keep them there for a while, even after they have been given their free gift.
