Are you struggling to get enough traffic to your website? You are not alone! In fact, a lack of traffic is one of the biggest complaints made by online marketers. And it's one of the biggest reasons online businesses fail.

Increase your website traffic with these great tips:

1. Never use automated services to submit your site to the search engines. There are less than 20 major search engines - all the rest don't matter. This makes the services that advertise, "pay to be submitted to 30,000 search engines" a big waste of money. Instead take the time to learn how each search engine prefers to receive listings and then do the work yourself. To learn more about the search engines check out the Bruce Clay Search Engine Relationship Chart (http://www.bruceclay.com/searchenginerelationshipchart.htm).

2. Make your ezine ads even more powerful using a viral lead generator. Instead of advertising something for sale in your ads, use them to give away an ebook, special report or free software application as a way of generating leads. If it's something that prospects can pass around to their friends you'll create a viral effect that will continue to produce traffic long after the ad is forgotten!

3. Put together a package. Customers like to purchase packages, especially if they're getting a deal. Use this your advantage by putting together a joint venture that provides customers with a package consisting of multiple products and services. For example you could have a "complete ebook creation package" which includes partners that offer information on writing an ebook, a website template and an ebook cover designed by a professional. Have all of the partners promote the main sales page, which includes links to all of the participating sites. This will provide a revenue stream as well traffic to your site. If you're the one organizing the joint venture you can get added exposure by hosting the pages at your domain. A lot of people will check out your main site once they arrive at the package page out of curiosity.

4. Write articles and submit them to newsletter publishers and article directories. There are thousands of newsletters (also called ezines) published online. Writing good quality articles and submitting them to the publishers for inclusion in these ezines is still one of the best ways to get free, targeted traffic. Start by creating a list of ezine publishers who accept article submissions using a reliable directory such as the Directory of Ezines (http://www.directoryofezines.com). Once you have this list compiled it will be easy to mail them your new articles on a regular basis. Another great way to get your articles published is to submit them to article directories.

5. Generate traffic quickly by offering high commissions to partners. A great way to get the attention of people with large lists and busy sites is to offer them a substantial commission (75%+). You can bet this type of offer will be hard for them to turn down! Although you won't make much on the initial sale, you'll generate a lot of traffic and build up a list that you can sell to again and again.

What are you waiting for? Get started implementing these traffic generation techniques today and watch your site traffic explode!
