If you want a get rich quick scheme to help you earn extra cash and probably become a millionaire (almost) overnight, then there are plenty of offers on the internet and other places.
But you won't find it in this article.
If you want a simple, free and painless internet marketing strategy that will catapult you into the Forbes 100 (almost) overnight, then there are literally hundreds of thousands (millions?) of articles, blogs, websites, etc which offer this.
But not here.
Most people will agree that the internet is the place to be if you want to: * Be your own boss * Work from home (or the beach, balcony, etc.
) * Spend more time with the kids * Earn extra income * Leave your existing job * Protect yourself from future credit crunches * Etc...
However, it's not enough to create a web site and then sit back waiting for visitors to come to you.
The internet has billions of web sites, so unless you have a strategy for attracting visitors, no one will come, no matter how long you wait.
Without traffic, even a website offering $10 bills for $5 won't get any offers.
Unfortunately, there is no secret easy way to get traffic.
It takes time, patience, hard work and determination.
To have an online business, you don't even have to sell anything.
Because if you have good traffic to your site, it will attract advertisers.
If you have goods to sell, or can develop this side of an online business, then this provides an additional income stream for your site.
Ultimately, big traffic numbers will only apply to your site if it is full of good content, with something real, interesting and compelling, to offer visitors.
It's not as hard as you might believe.

) Any successful online business takes time to attract visitors and rank well with the search engines.
These are the things you can do to start developing your web presence:
- Don't stop! Keep building more quality, original pages on the subject of your website.
- Offer lots of free (not rubbish) stuff on your site, like informative e-books, useful guides, special offers.
Anything you write and give away should have a link or links to your web site, so as it slowly but surely gets bandied around the World Wide Web, so does your web site address. - You should build up a collection of articles published on the web through an article publishing site.
The articles will become an important source of interest and links back to your site, building your reputation and page rank score.
Each article will have direct links to your site, so again, as they get bandied around the World Wide Web, so does your site. - Join any forums connected with your subject matter (or niche), and contribute.
Although most don't allow links to commercial web sites, getting your name bandied about is what's important, and people might be able to refer to your profile with your details, or even get in touch with you.
Such as:
- Build a link exchange programme by researching other sites related to your niche and asking them to exchange links with you.
This back links development is important in developing your page rank. - Build a funny, interesting, and compelling Squidoo Lens that promotes your site and your online business.
- Use Social Networking to promote your site: Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter spring to mind.
- Use Yahoo Answers! to promote your expertise and advertise your website in your profile.
- Make sure all your friends, relatives, neighbours, customers and casual acquaintances know you have a web site and ask them to visit.
- Have cards printed with your web address on it and leave it lying around.
It's not easy either, but requires some hard slog.
But by doing all you can to get your web presence noticed you will soon find your site high up in the visitor and search engine rankings -- just what you need for a successful online business.
Build for the future and start researching now.
