Outsourcing is a great way to utilize social media to build a database of potential customers. By using the power of video
marketing, Twittering and blogging you can build a list of prospects very quick.
The Internet gurus and millionaires say that “your list is gold,” meaning that a database of targeted prospects can be marketed to over and over, sending them new product launches, special sales, newproducts or services, or just to stay in touch.
Your customers may not be ready to buy when they visit your site for the first time, but capturing their email addresses means you can build brand loyalty, keep your image fresh in their minds and market to them when they are ready to buy.
An Internet savvy and knowledgeable outsourcing firm can not only save you a lot of money in labor costs, but allows you to utilize free social media sites to funnel visitors to an opt-in page where the prospect fills out a “name and email” form for freebies or additional information.
This technique works efficiently to capture emails and the chance to market your products and services over an extended period of time. I’m sure that each and every one of us has signed up for a free eBook or white paper giving us valuable info on our topic of interest. This is the same way you got on this list and how you are reading this information.
Your database is the #1 marketing tool for successful Internet businesses and having a full or part time virtual assistant can expedite your results.
An outsourcing rep or virtual assistant can create profiles on sites such as Twitter or Facebook, upload powerful videos to popular sites like YouTube and create opt-in pages that generate targeted traffic.
This is just a fraction of what a full or part time virtual assistant can do for you and your business.
Remember, you can hire virtual assistants for:
* Customer Service
* Sales
* Admin
* Tech Support
* Internet Marketing
* Social Networking
* Video Marketing
* Article Marketing
* Data Entry and Mining
* Posting Ads
* Blogging
* medical Billing
* Call Center Agents
* Facebook
* LinkedIn
* Twitter
* and Much More!

3 Tips For Building Traffic To Your Website
January 7, 2010 by
Filed under General, Traffic Generation
Doing business on the Internet is not much different from doing business anywhere else. If you are active and creative you will get success. If you have these two qualities it would be wise to use them to build traffic to your website.
Getting traffic is not as easy as you might think. Although millions of people use the Internet, there are also millions of offers out there. If you want to get a share of the visitors you will really have to work hard.
Here are some techniques that you can use to build traffic and also improve the search engine ranking of your site.
1. The best way to build traffic is to build an interesting website!
This doesn’t mean that we subscribe to the “build it and they will come” philosophy. However if your website has many informative pages, then each one of those pages can be packed with keywords and phrases that people will find when they make searches.
Ideally, you’ll want to make each page about a specific keyword and only that one keyword. The more pages you have on your site that are targeted around a specific keyword or phrase the more likely you’ll get ranked in the search engines and get traffic to that page.
On the other hand if you have only published a “brochure site”, a website that is a mirror image of an offline introductory brochure about your company, then there will not be much “spider food” on your site. That is, there will not be much for search engines to put in their data base, and you will not get much traffic from search engine queries.
Another aspect in building an interesting site is that other sites will want to link to you, viewing your site as an important resource. In fact, this is what Google had in mind when it set up its current algorithm to rank websites. A site that is informative and filled with useful information will be noted and other sites will link to it. Each of these links is viewed by Google as a “vote” for that site. Make your site interesting, and people will link to it without you even knowing about it.
In addition, never underestimate the importance of word-of-mouth or going “viral”. If your site is interesting people will tell their friends and they will check out your site. A content rich site is the first secret of building traffic.
2. Publish some of your information on other websites like articles and videos
Article marketing and video marketing are one of the most effective ways to build traffic. If your site is full of useful material, then other people will also want to publish it on their websites.
Webmasters are hungry for content to beef up their sites, newsletters, and blogs.
Here are a few places where you can offer your content but make sure that you put your URL and contact information on each article, this is how you actually get the traffic. And ideally, you’ll want to anchor your link with a keyword. For instance if your keyword is “dog training” you’ll want to wrap that keyword with the link. This will boost the likelihood that your article will be found for that keyword. Here’s how you’d set up the anchor text link:
<a href=”http://www.YourDomain.com”>dog training</a>
And, here’s what the anchor text link looks like: dog training
You can first submit your article to article directories such as:
EZinearticles.com – http://www.ezinearticles.com/
ArticleCity – http://www.articlecity.com/
Or, you can use an article submission service such as AMA, which is my favorite -
http://www.articlemarketingautomation.com/1000569-0-5-3.html.
This is my top recommendation and one of my best sources of traffic. They have an outstanding program and you can even use it to promote your Youtube videos. This is HUGE!
3. Improve your search engine ranking with on-page and off-page optimization
While content is KING and an essential part of any traffic building strategy, it also helps to take steps to improve your ranking in search engines. If your content is not optimized it will not get the exposure that it deserves.
You can improve your search engine ranking by placing your important key search terms in the title tag, the description tag, in your site’s headlines, and in link text on your web pages. These are the on-page factors of website optimization. If you do this successfully your site’s search engine ranking for a particular keyword or keyword phrase will improve.
It is also important to work on off-page factors that are related to search engine positioning but only after your website pages are optimized. Your ranking is partly determined by how many other websites link to you.
If you have published your material elsewhere, then you will get a good amount of important links. If not, you may have to launch a reciprocal links campaign or place your site in paid directories in order to increase the number of incoming links to your website.
Creativity combined with activity is a good recipe for traffic building. Build your site as best you can, and then spread the word about it. Use these three tips and you are sure to succeed.
