One of the more successful ways to find traffic that are looking for what you have to offer is to socialize with others who are like-minded. Here are the most popular ways to socialize for your marketing needs:
Blogging comments- Find other blogs that have the same kind of topic as your website. Post a reply on some of their posts. Your website link will be associated with your name and those looking for more information on that topic will check out your site or blog and see what you have to offer them.
Join forum communities- Find message board communities that have topics that relate to your website. Your website link could go in the signature line allowing others to find their way to site to see what you have. Check with the rules of the board first to make sure this is allowed.
By posting regularly on these forums, you can build credibility as an expert for that topic and gain some trust with some potential consumers who may be thinking about buying from you. Also, the other board members may refer people they know to your site, so make sure you give back as much as you receive with these communities.
Social Networking Sites- Social networking sites include such popular sites like MySpace and Facebook. These sites attract people who are looking for others who are interested in the same things they are.
Internet marketers use them all the time to hook up with people in their target audience. People who have the same interest as you, can communicate and start to build trust with you. They will be more receptive to buy from someone who’s in their “group” or they could pass on your business info. on to other people they know.
