Using Giveaways For Free Traffic

Dear Friend,
An easy way to generate traffic to your blog, or landing page or website is by participating in online giveaways.
Regardless of your niche market, there are bound to be giveaway events that you can join as a contributor, and in exchange for free promotion, you offer something of value to the subscribers who join the giveaway site looking for free information, downloads and material.
When it comes to the Internet Marketing industry, there are giveaways all year round, usually focused on a current season, holiday or special event. With giveaways, it's entirely free to participate and the only requirement is that you offer a free resource of some kind. In many cases, you can even use PLR (Private Label Rights) material that you have a license to distribute.

Giveaways will attract freebie seekers for the most part, however if you are just starting to build an email list, and are looking to generate free traffic to your website, it can be a fun and effective method of reaching out to your market and gaining free exposure.

One thing to keep in mind however, is that even though you are giving something away for free, it should be highly relevant to the main area of your website (or your niche). There is no sense in generating traffic by offering a product on one subject when your main focus is on something entirely different, so make sure that whatever you choose to offer in exchange for an email subscription is highly targeted to your niche market, so that you are able to email follow ups to a responsive list of subscribers.

With giveaways, you will need to create a squeeze page that allows prospects to subscribe in order to receive the free gift that you are offering. You can use pre-designed squeeze pages or hire a designer to create a custom one for your website.
