Having a web site for your home based business or online business is crucial. But having a site is only half the battle…getting traffic to your site is what will make you successful. So today I will give you 5 of 10 high powered ways to increase traffic to your site. The other 5 will be in the next post.

1. Trade links with other web sites. They should be related to the subject of your web site. Instead of trading links, you could also trade banner ads, half page ads, classified ads, etc.

2. Start an e-zine for your web site. When people read each issue they’ll be reminded to revisit your web site. They’ll see your product ad more than just once which will increase your orders.

3. Form an online community. It could be an online message board, e-mail discussion list or chat room. When people get involved in your community they will regularly return to communicate with others.

4. Write articles and submit them to e-zines, web sites and magazines that accept article submissions. Include your business information and web address at the end of the article.

5. Give away an electronic freebie with your ad on it. Allow your visitors to also give the freebie away. This will increase your ad exposure and attract people to your web site at the same time.

Remember that an increase in traffic should give you an increase in profits for your online business! Look for the other 5 in the next post…
