Discover 7 powerful ways to grab free advertising.
By Shahnaz Rauf
Make a search on MSN for the word "directories" and
it turns up a list over 27261 long - and some of the excellent
submission list sites are not even listed here. Now come on do
your math...If you could get your site mentioned in just 1000
of these directories and you get only 1 visitor from just 50%
of these sites everyday...Hey you have 500 free targeted visitors
everyday!
Imagine what this could mean for your sales and cash flow. Yes...this
could be somewhat time consuming but is well worth the effort.
For you will not only harness the raw power of directories but
also your link popularity will increase. This may result in a
better positioning of your site in the search engines and even
more traffic.
Did I mention in one of my previous articles that there are so
many simple yet really surefire ways of getting guaranteed targeted
traffic to your website? To get you started here is a list of
7 distinct directory categories:
1. Add your site to the DMOZ open directory and it will ultimately
appear on partner sites which use the open directory data
Google, Hotbot, AOL, DirectHit etc...And getting into some of
these sites might just give you a strong nudge in to Yahoo itself.
