5 Super-powered Strategies to Increase Your Web Traffic Using Social Networks

Thousands of burgeoning affiliate marketers and business veterans are utilizing social networking sites, like Technorati and Digg, to send 100s and even 1000s of daily visitors to their home business sites.

This isn't a new phenomenon. In fact, from the dawn of social networking sites there have been a plentiful herd of internet marketers waiting to discover how best they could use this explosion of traffic - to drive visitors to their own sites.

Here are some tips to maximise your exposure on such sites using tried and proven methods to drive targeted traffic to your website:

1. There are literally 100s of different social sites online so submit to as many as is physically possible. You can quickly do a search on Google for the most used and highest traffic ranking 'Social Networking sites'.

2. If it's within your budget, I highly encourage you to purchase a web script or software utility to put this process on auto-pilot. I use a Wordpress script called Auto Social Poster that will automatically submit each blog post I publish to around 30 Social networking sites - including all the most visited ones.

3. Social networking sites will give you a link from back from your article and also a link from a specific page or pages, determined by the keywords or tags you add to your post when submitting. So make sure to use targeted search phrases in your title and keywords. Hint: Use long tail, 3-4 word phrases, to maximise your chances of your SB post reaching the top page of google.

4. Interact with other SB members. Whether on Digg or Delicious, make sure to participate in activities like adding friends and commenting on other users posts. This will encourage them to do the same for you which will in turn raise your ranking and standing on the network in question.

5. Link to your social bookmark pages. If possible add links to your Social bookmark account to as many other sites as possible. Some article submission directories disapprove of using affiliate sites or similar links in your resource box, but many will overlook this. So it's a good idea to add your Social Networking page link to your author bio box, if article submissions are a method you use in your daily marketing. Linking back to your pages and SB posts will give these URLs a boost in ranking on the search engines and could even get you a coveted number one spot on Google for a popular search term.

The above are just a few methods you can employ to raise your chances significantly of getting loads of free web traffic from social networking sites. Apply them today to your marketing and watch your traffic and income soar.
