This series continues the last time I discussed getting the site set up so now you need traffic. Here are 6 ways to get traffic to your new site.

  1. Articles
  2. Podcasts
  3. Videos
  4. Bookmarking
  5. Squidoo
  6. Hub Pages

All of these except the bookmarking are relatively easy because you already have content created. Now it is time to repurpose it.

Articles

A slight rewrite of your articles gives you an easy way to have an article that you can submit to the directories. If money is tight make sure you submit to Ezine Articles. If you can afford it a submission service like Content Crooner can get you great distribution easily.

Podcasts

You are using a blog if you are following this series so add Podpress plugin to your blog and go grab Audacity. Read your articles and use Audacity to create an mp3 which you can add to your blog and Podpress will distribute it for you. Add your podcast feed into the various podcast directories and you have a great traffic source.

Videos

Take your articles and import them into power point. Open Camtasia or Cam Studio and record while you read the slides. You now have a video to submit to the directories.You can use Tube Mogul to upload it to quite a few for free.

Bookmarking

Bookmark your sites to your favorites. You can use a service like OnlyWire to automate some of this. One thing with bookmarking, make sure you are bookmarking more than just your sites. Bookmarking quality sites regularly increases the chances that people will follow your recommendations.

Squidoo

Create a lens on your topic, use your articles and videos for content of your lens. Add your site rss feed as part of your lens.

Hub Pages

Very similar to Squidoo and you will repurpose your content here once again.

So there are 6 ways to generate traffic most of them by just repurposing the content you already have available.
