Using Individual Creativity as a Traffic Generator

Your own individual creativity can generate much traffic to your website. Entrepreneurs and musicians alike share the art of being creative. If you possess this gift you can’t afford to waste it.

Website visitors and surfers respect individual creativity. If you can develop an extremely creative idea for your niche, you can generate thousands of new visitors. In some cases it could be millions!

Think along the lines of a YouTube video or possibly a collage of very powerful pictures that when combined will display a certain theme or idea. Just try to keep it somewhat related to your niche and always have a link to your site. This will help to hold the users attention and nudge them to click the link to visit your site and learn more about you and what it is that you do. If you have done a good job the new visitor will opt in to your email list and you can soon begin marketing your products to them.

Similarly, you should use your creativity inside your website as well. When you are drawing visitors in from another source they need to be able to find some useful content. You want them to be happy they visited and you surely want them to come back again. That’s the whole idea right?

There’s a ton of Web 2.0 sites out there where you can display your creativity and use it to draw your audience in such as Squidoo, YouTube, FaceBook, MySpace, Twitter, Digg, StumbleUpon, and Delicious just to name a few.

Be your own original self with your own original thoughts. Let your individual creativity flow all over the Internet always remembering to add a link to your own domain and you will soon find yourself with more new traffic than you care to count.

Best Wishes!

Watch Out for Web 2.0

I’m guessing a lot of you have seen the term Web 2.0 here and there when you’re surfing the Internet. Keep your eyes open because I’ve got a crazy feeling this is going to be huge. I’ve been putting off learning much about it simply because I’m human. I sometimes get overwhelmed by all the information.

Wilkepedia describes the term Web 2.0 as being commonly associated with web applications which facilitate interactive information sharing, interoperability, user-centered design and collaboration on the World Wide Web.

Basically it’s social media. Web 2.0 allows the users to interact with other users or to change website content. The Internet has become so widely used by bloggers and other enthusiasts that surfers have really become massively interested in participating.

The bottom line is that surfers are really digging being able to interact with the site owner as well as the other members on the site! You want to talk about building a website for music fans? This is it if I’ve ever seen it! I could also see this as being awesome for somebody interested in starting their own social networking site such as Facebook and Twitter or something of that nature.

Guess who just recently saw this firestorm coming? No it wasn’t me…..bummer! It was Ken Envoy and his extremely ever popular visionary crew over at SiteBuildIt. I can not put into words how much I have learned from this company.

I know I talk about him a lot on this blog but that’s only because of the amount of experience and forethought this man and his people have. They never cease to amaze me!

I don’t currently own a SiteBuildIt site but that’s only because I am the type of person that has to finish one job before I start another. I feel like I have to devote all my time to this site until I am satisfied with what I have accomplished here. I know it may be silly but that’s just me. Anyway you can bet your rear end that when I do feel a complete sense of accomplishment with Modern Day Peasants that I will be building a new site with SiteBuildIt 2.0.

Ken is so on top of this kind of stuff. Even if you’re not ready for Web 2.0 yet you can still sample some of the SiteBuildIt modules here for free.

Best Wishes
