HOW TO GET AN EXTRA 5,000+ HITS MONTHLY TO YOUR SITE--ABSOLUTELY FREE!!!
by Dean Garrison

We all dream of a landslide of free hits to our sites each
month with no money out of pocket. This is why we spend
endless hours posting to free ad sites and placing free
classifieds. Those methods work but they are very time
consuming and will bring in probably much less than 5000
extra hits a month. Well, there is hope. The technique that I
am about to explain brings me an average of 5000 extra hits
each month and it only takes about 5 hours of my time (total)
each month. Now that's power!
In fact, whether you realize it or not you are witnessing my
technique in action. Yes, I am talking about writing guest
articles for your favorite ezines, web sites and print
publications. About twice a month I sit down and write a business
building article like this one and submit it to my small but
growing list of publisher contacts. 90%+ of them say, "Thanks
but no thanks" and the other 10% that print my article bring me a
minimum of 5,000 extra hits to my site every month.
AND DID I MENTION THE QUALITY???
One thing that many people may not realize is that these 5,000
hits are equal to about 50,000 real world hits. What do I mean?
Well, when I get a generic visitor to my site that found me
through a banner or search engine, about 1 in 60 will buy one
of my products or join one of my lists. That's not bad, I am not
complaining. But something magical happens when you write
articles to your target audience. I have found that about 1 in 6
will buy something or join one of my lists. That is ten times
better than the average "every day" visitors to my site.
IT'S THE "GURU" PRINCIPLE IN ACTION...
Why are these people more responsive to my offers? It's
because they have already spent a few minutes getting to know
me, as you are doing right now. They view me as somewhat of
a "guru." Average surfers don't have that luxury. They just hit
on my search engine listing or answer one of my short ads,
that is why they are less responsive... because THEY DON'T
KNOW ME FROM ADAM!!!
By writing short articles in your area of expertise you gain a
certain amount of respect from your peers and that respect
translates into TRUST and trust translates into BUYING
CONFIDENCE and buying confidence translates into SALES!!!
And I think we would all agree that we could use more sales.
The lesson here is not just that you can get thousands of extra
hits FREE, but also that those hits will be of much higher
quality than your average visitor.
OK, HOW DO I GET STARTED?
We all have something to share with our business peers. Even
if you are a beginner you can look at things from a beginner's
perspective and write about that. Or maybe you just have a
different insight or niche to talk about. THE PEOPLE IN YOUR
INDUSTRY ARE WAITING TO HEAR FROM YOU!
Just write about topics that you know and submit to your
favorite industry publications. Most of them will let you submit
your work for consideration. And a few of them will even
publish it.
At the end of your article you will put a simple "resource box"
that tells people about you and your business in a few short
sentences. See mine at the end of this article if you need
ideas.
Then, when a reader makes it to the end of your article they
will sometimes click on your web page link and pay you a visit.
That's where the hits come from. And what valuable hits they
are!!!
WHERE DO I FIND EZINES?
For finding web sites and print magazines for your articles you
will have to do some research on your own. You obviously
know your industry better than I do. Try your favorite search
engine. But to find a ton of ezines I have included some links
for you to check out. I found 50 myself the other day that
accept business building articles like this one!
Here are those links:
http://ezine-swap.com
http://www.netmastersolutions.com/search.htm
http://www.list-city.com/ezines.htm
http://www.homeincome.com/search-it/ezine/
http://www.e-zinez.com/cgi-bin/hyperseek/hyperseek.cgi
Of the links above, ezine-swap and homeincome will even
give you the submission addresses for your articles. On some
of the other sites you will have to subscribe to the ezines
and see if they accept articles (or email the publisher).
Hopefully 5000+ hits a month for five hours work is enough to
motivate you to at least try this method. Most people tend to
think that they can't write articles that others will find
interesting but you will never know until you try. By the way,
if you write business articles send them to me too at
mailto:dean@revolutionteam.com I publish a weekly ezine and
also a print magazine monthly.
