Many people will say it is difficult to rank high on the search engines and drive targeted traffic to your site of offer page. I don't believe it is all that hard to do, that is not to say it won't take some time and effort on your part but not hard at all.

There are a few simple yet very powerful ways to drive traffic to your site or offer page without every spending one dime on leads, hit, traffic exchanges, etc… I am going to go over two such techniques in the following part of this article.

Technique 1: Forum Posting

Forums are probably the best and quickest way to drive interested people to your site or offer page. You can literally have hundreds of real people in front of your offer in a matter of hours or a few days. The one great thing about this traffic is it never goes away and over times simply grows. So how exactly do we accomplish such a feet might be your question.

Well it is really very simple there are two main things you must have and do in order to make this work flawlessly. First you have to have a signature file with a link to the site you wish people to visit with a simple curiosity capturer as the text. Second you have to have non advertising valuable post in the forum. These could be your own created threads or simply replies to someone else's thread that is very popular.

You see whenever you post to a thread that already has hundreds or thousands of viewers and replies each time a new reply is posted they will all be emailed informing them of the new added post and thus they read your valuable input and see your curiosity grabber and click on your link taking them right where you wanted them in the first place (your offer). Can you see how over time and posting in 5 to 10 good forums a day might boost your traffic almost over night? Well trust me on this one it can and will and even grow over time.

What you must be careful of when doing this is that you do not come across as spammy because they have monitors watching every post in the better ones that will almost immediately remove your post and ban you from making post to their forum if you violate their forum guideline so be sure you understand them before you begin to post.

Technique 2: Article Marketing

Articles are another very good way to grow your targeted traffic flow over time. I have heard of all kinds of strategies when it comes to Article Marketing but I think the best way to go about it is create 1 or 2 articles per day and post them to 5 really high PR and High traffic Article Directories. You can easily find Article Directories willing to post your article as long as the article is unique and has value to whatever subject it is written on.

You also want to be sure to have a strong call to action at the end of each article that directs the readers to click through to your site or offer page. When you craft these right your article will more than likely go viral in no time as there are literally thousands of hungry webmasters frequenting these Article directories looking for new valuable content to add to their sites on a daily basis so chances are someone will pick your article if it is worth it and add your article along with your link to their site adding to the traffic to your site.
