  by: c3scripts.com

• There are 4 ways online to get people to your website:

  1. Organic search engines. Being indexed by search engines such as Google and showing up in the search results. Depends upon SEO (Search Engine Optimization).

  2. Pay-Per-Click (PPC) Advertising. You can advertise on Google, MSN, Yahoo! and have your ad show up when someone does a keyword search related to your ad. To see this in action, go to Google.com and do a search -- at the right you will see "Sponsored Links" -- those are ads from advertisers. Pay-Per-click is performance-based advertising. That means that the advertiser pays for the ad only if someone clicks on it. And the advertiser sets how much is spent on each ad. The advertising network provides you with statistics and from there you know how much money you had to spend to get a visitor to your website. Once you get the visitor to your website, it's up to you to get them to buy whatever you're selling. And if you have more than one website, you should promote your other related websites on the website that the visitor comes to. That way you stretch the value of your PPC ads. See Google Adsense.

  3. Referral. Affiliate Program, Customer Referal Program (Tell-A-Friend), Joint-Venture/Partner Program.

  4. Inclusion in EZines. Either pay for them or free article, or being mentioned in a blog. It's an endoresement by the EZine and adds credibility. Write articles and submit them to EZines. Those EZines need content to provide to their users. There are also articles websites that you can submit your articles to. At the end of the article you have an "about the author" section that links to your website. Of course, you want to write on a topic that you know about and have a passion about. In your articles, write solutions that people are looking for. What challenges have you had? Other people are probably having the same problems and looking for solutions.
