How to get traffic to your website through free ads

By Fread Janhs

There are many ways to get high quality traffic to your website, some of which are better ways than others. A lot of the time getting good traffic to your website means paying a lot of money through online advertising campaigns or from advert placements via specific websites related to yours. These aren't the only ways to receive good traffic and infact there are ways that are cheaper or even free and a lot more effective!

Such ways could include online classifieds where you basically buy a placement for your advert like you would do in your local newspapers. Not only does this target thousands of new visitors but they're also visitors that are specifically interested in the products or services you offer on your website. There are many websites that offer this service for a low price, so instead of paying for traffic that isn't good neither does any of the traffic go to your website because they are truly interested in your information or services, online classifieds offer you a cheap way to enhance your websites traffic with the possibility of more sales.

The good thing about using classified ads as an advertising method is that you're targeting an online audience specifically in the country you want to interest, these people search for keywords on the classified websites and your page comes up, thus giving an edge over your competitors and if the visitors like what they see then there's a possibility already for a long term customer. These visitors only visit your website if they're truly interested in your services; this isn't a PPC method so you won't receive spam visitors that click on your website link then without looking at any of your content log straight off. When having a link to your website on the classifieds website also means an extra back link, which then means you are ranking higher in search engines already.

There isn't just an option for purchasing a classified either; hundreds of websites that offer classified ads also offer a free option which allows you to place free classified ads as well. This is another fantastic way to promote your website and gain sales for free. You make think there is a big catch when placing your free classified ads but there truly isn't. The reason why websites offer such options is so they get more classifieds placed on their website, the more classifieds they have lurking about on their website means more visitors and more people who will pay for featured classified ads.

When placing any classified ads on a website be sure to include as much information as possible and try to attract the visitor as best as possible. The visitor is interested in your website but without a good description or title you're not going to get the visitors attention, so they won't visit your website, thus losing a lot of sales and traffic. Make sure you get the best out of your classified ads, create multiple ads on a range of websites so you get multiple visitors. Make the most of those free classifieds; there are many of those websites about.
