Are you twiddling your thumbs and wondering what you might do today to bring more visitors to your website? If so, then twiddle no more!

Here's the challenge: over the next ten days, carry out ONE of the following strategies EACH (working) day. Just one a day over ten days. It doesn't matter which order you do them in, just do them. I guarantee you, it will give your website a terrific boost.

(1) Go to Google.com and run a few searches for keywords related to your business. Find those websites that target the same market as you, but that don't directly compete with you. Contact them and propose a joint venture. You could, for example, exchange advertising with them, offer them a free ebook that they can give to their visitors or invite them to promote your product in exchange for a commission on sales. This free ebook will give you some good ideas: http://www.bizzydays.com/downloads/ebook/jointventures.zip

(2) Visit forums related to your product/service and get involved in discussions there. Aim to answer people's questions in a competent manner so as to establish yourself as someone 'in ...
... the know'. Don't blatantly plug your website or product. Instead, place a signature at the end of your message with a link to your website. Be sure to check the forum rules (and look at other people's messages) to avoid getting into trouble with other users.

(3) Download my free ebook "Over 178,000 Targeted Hits for Free!" and follow the instructions. Get your free copy here: http://freetraffic.bizzydays.com/.

(4) Find at least 10 websites to exchange links with. REAL links on proper content-filled pages are best, but even links in links pages can be okay (not FFAs, just proper permanent links pages). Again, find websites targeting the same market and suggest an exchange of links. Try signing up with services like LinkPartners: http://www.linkpartners.com.

(5) Create a free ebook that is useful to your target market and start giving it away.

(7) Write an article of interest to your target market and get it published across the web. By placing a short bio at the bottom of the article (with a little info about you or your product), together with a link to your website, you'll establish credibility as well as generate traffic. If you think you won't be able to write an article, try a simple list of tips (just like this article). When it's ready, submit your article to ezine publishers that target the same market as you and also to article directories like http://www.goarticles.com or http://www.ideamarketers.com
