The Best No Cost Traffic Method, Period

In the Internet marketing world, traffic generation and traffic sources are the hot commodities of the industry. People are constantly looking for the next ‘secret source’ or the next break through in traffic generation that’s going to help them reach their goals and get them the money they truly desire.
Well, before I tell you what I feel is the best traffic source, I will say that every traffic source out there requires a ton of hard work to master it. There is no push-button simple traffic method.
Anyways, the best no cost traffic source in my opinion is article marketing. Let me tell you why.
Article marketing is very simple to do. You write an article, usually over 400 words, you fill the article with great content, you provide tremendous value and you get to promote your own website in the resource box, depending on the rules of the article directory.
Once you get in a flow of writing some articles with some practice, you can easily knock out an article in 7 to 12 minutes. You can easily get in a rhythm and write 5-7 articles per hour. Plus, the more you write, the more conversational and natural your articles will sound, which is really the goal of your articles.
A HUGE benefit to article marketing is that you create the article once, you submit it to your favorite article directory, but the article will remain live on the Internet forever and it will bring you traffic forever for only doing the work once. I don’t know about you, but I love the ‘set it and forget it’ traffic method.
There is no physical cost to doing article marketing, but there is a cost in time, so it’s not completely free. Plus, if you want to know a bad side of article marketing, then understand that the volume of traffic is lower at first and will gradually grow over time as you submit more articles. The main point to the traffic is the more content you have online and in the article directories, the more traffic you’ll get.
Now here’s the reason why I emphatically state that article marketing is the best traffic source.
Bottom line is when someone reads your article, they are getting a feel for who you are, they are getting a glimpse as to what your skills are, they are getting a feel to see if you’re truly an expert and a leader in this niche and most importantly they are building a relationship with you before they visit your website.
This is huge for a lot of reasons. The main one is the quality of traffic you receive from article marketing is the highest out there. By the time someone visits your website, they already feel like they know you, they like your style and they most likely trust you. That’s exactly what you want!
Yes you will have to work your butt off and yes it will take time to write thousands of articles, but if you’re in business for the long haul, this is exactly what you should be doing.
