BUILD TRAFFIC FOR YOUR WEB SITE!

Once you have even a modest amount of information on your Web site, you'll want to start using it to attract new business.

It costs nothing but a little time and effort to build traffic to your Web site. Hot links from one site to the next is what the World Wide Web is all about--and these free links (not paid advertising) is how most traffic is created on the Web.

Start with the major search engines and visit their sites for instructions on how to submit your site for free inclusion with their listings.

By using your imagination and the search engines, try to think of related sites from which you might be able to attract customers. E-mail the Webmaster and consider offering a reciprocal link on your site.

If you have a local service business, maybe you can find a community, association, or newspaper-owned site serving your community. If you have a retail business, maybe some of your manufacturers will list you on their sites.
