How To Turn Spam Into Website Traffic by Michael Brymer

I'm sure you have placed an ad or two in the free classifieds before today but ... did you do it the right way? Are you using spam to help boost your website traffic?

1. OK, let me explain

Free classified ad sites are easy enough to find, simply go to any search engine and put in "free classifieds" and place your ad in as many sites as you like.

Most classifieds ask you to put in your email address for responses. Don't use your normal address, get an auto-responder.

Use the auto-responder address in your ad. Your auto-responder instantly sends out your pre-imputed message to those requiring more information.

2. But what else happens to your ad?

Basically two things; responses from interested persons and spam from spammers. The advantage of an auto-responder is this: From your free classified ads your auto-responder address will most likely be harvested onto spam lists by email gathering software. Which is a good thing!?

Now every time someone spams your auto-responder address they will get your auto-responder message advertising your website, opportunity etc. Spam lists in turn get on other spam lists that eventually get sold to real people using real addresses believing them to be opt in lists.

If you get sick of the spam mail being redirected to you by your auto-responder, you can have your auto-responder messages directed to a dead address.

3. Dealing with classifieds

Now let's say you've decided to put in five classifieds a day. What I recommend you do is; each time you get to the page where you enter your ad details that you copy the URL to that page and keep it filed on your desktop. After one month of doing this you will have about 150 URLS that take you directly to the ADD YOUR POST page of 150 classified sites. This will also give you a speedy advertising system.

Simply cut and paste the ADD POST URLS you collected to an email and send it to yourself. Then all you have to do is click on the URLS and you'll be taken directly to the ADD POST of each classified. With this system you may now add your ad to 10 sites per day as things are a whole heap faster.

4. Bring in the robot

You'll soon be sick of typing or pasting your name into each classified so to cure that there is a free form filling robot that you should use. By clicking or pasting in the following URL and hitting enter you can now download the form filling, password protecting robot.

Your personal password will stop others from accessing this great little robot. You'll never have to remember passwords etc again.

5. Tracking outstanding classifieds

If you want to know which classified sites are pulling the most prospects you can key each ad with a number. E.g. "Website Hosting Now MLM, for more information put "Free 22" in the Subject". Just remember to put the same number next to the URL you saved from that web page so you can tell which site is attracting the most people. You can probably think of other ways to track ad responses. Tracking is important because you'll be able to concentrate on the more responsive classifieds and discard the rest.

Also make sure your ad title stands out amongst the crowd e.g.

******$$$$ MLM HOSTING $$$$******

Also put in a few key words at the end of your ads as some sights run like a search engine. e.g.mlm, money, etc.

Now when you see spam in your inbox and notice that they sent it to your auto-responder address you'll appreciate it. It also saves you time sending your message back to them as they already have it. Those high tech spamming robots now work for you, free of charge :)

THE SECRET OF GETTING HIGHLY TARGETED TRAFFIC FOR FREE by Kelvin Tan

Want to boost your website traffic? You don't want to spend money, right? You don't need to. That's right. I am not trying to sell you anything, just giving you some great advice for free. After you read this, your website traffic will skyrocket and that's for sure.

The magic words are: FORUM POSTING.

Whatever you niche, you can rest assured, hundreds and maybe even thousands of discussion forums exist for your area of interest. Simply set up a signature file and include it with your post. If people find your content interesting, they will visit your website.

Now you must be wondering, what on earth do I write in those forums? Remember your content is very important as people visit discussion forums with the intention of learning something specific. If your content is irrelevant or doesn't offer any useful information, the reader will not even glance towards your signature box or click on your link. The post will just go waste.

Here's how to go about doing effective forum posting :

1. Firstly, you need to identify popular forums relating to your niche. You can perform a search on any of the good search engines and you will see a host of them. Visit the forum and begin reading the latest posts. Does the forum allow signature boxes? Zero in on a few who do allow them. Make sure you choose forums that people visit regularly. If the last post is a week old, don't waste your time and move on the next forum.

2. The next step is to begin registering with the forums and creating your sig files. SEO becomes all important now as your link should contain your primary keywords. Also, don't use the same link for too many posts; vary them slightly.

3. Now you need to post messages on the forums. You aim is to get the reader so interested that he clicks on your sig box to visit your website.

THE RIGHT CONTENT

Content is very essential and it must grab the reader's attention. What do the people like to read? They have some questions in mind or may even want to address controversial issues. These are the 2 most common types of posts on forums. You can work around these issues for creating your content.

For example, on reading some of the forum posts you will find that people have doubts they would like to clear. What you can do is make a list of these common doubts and do some research work on your own. With online search engines it's all very simple.

Try and create some interesting content centered around the accumulated information. Address questions directly and keep the article flowing in such a way that the reader is engrossed. Your aim is to impress them to such an extent that they are bound to click your link and visit your website.

Go to the forums and post your articles as if offering solutions to people's problems. This will help in building up your credibility. The end result will be tons of targeted traffic visiting your website everyday.

The signature box is all about free advertising so it must be instantly spike interest. Keep it short and appealing. People get bored with seeing the same signature box so remember to change it regularly, maybe every month. It should always be keyword rich.

Another interesting feature about forums are epic threads. They are issues that are being discussed and viewed by thousands of visitors with several pages of posts. Put in a relevant post there for maximum advantage.

You can also try to create your own epic thread. Take up a controversy ridden issue and write about it or have an open ended topic that will rope in several others to post along the same lines. Your post will definitely get viewed thousands of times and so will your signature box.

These are some of the basic guidelines laced with some personal tips for you. Follow them and
soon you will see a stream of targeted traffic - a surefire way to boost your sales.

Are Travel Agents A Thing Of The Past? by David Bain

In the past, before the advent of the Internet, it has largely been too time consuming or too expensive for the average consumer to deal directly with the travel operator and personally arrange every aspect of their holiday. Travel agents became a trusted and speedy medium via which the holiday consumer could book a 'package' that would otherwise be impossible for the independent consumer to find.

The role of the travel agent includes three key tasks:

1) Perform the function of the information broker, passing information between buyers and suppliers

2) Process transactions including printing tickets and forwarding money to suppliers

3) Advise travellers on places to go, things to do and other important information

These three tasks have been lampooned by the information and facilities provided on the Internet. Consumers have recently realised that it is possible to research their planned holiday fully online. Users can find out about specific regional information at the click of a mouse. Small local hotels, specific local attractions and regional tours can be researched with ease before a booking is considered.

In the early years of the Internet, consumers tended not to trust booking online. It was perceived that parting with credit card details over the Internet was not a secure method of payment. Users instead tended to research everything they wanted to know before hand - and then contact their travel agent either face-to-face or over the phone to book their holiday package.

The Internet offers an effective means for developing a single and sustainable electronic infrastructure for information gathering and business transactions for both travellers and suppliers. It is an ideal method for people to source information on travel. It is therefore essential for travel-related Websites to offer useful, pertinent and easy-to-find information alongside a booking facility if appropriate. The Internet can be used to fully research a destination, book all aspects of the holiday including travel and communicate others who have the same ideas or have been through similar experiences. It gives travellers an excellent opportunity to compare and contrast everything on offer before they make a purchase.

The information available online is continually being reformatted and presented in a more logical, easy-to-use and read format. The volume of consumers that rely on this information to make travel-related decisions will therefore continue to rise. In addition, features and benefits of using the Internet to research and book holidays are improving and being added to all the time. For example, consumers no longer have to receive printed tickets from the travel operator. They simply print out any information that they require themselves after they receive it automatically via email.

The Internet has meant that people can now easily plan trips for themselves. This has not only opened up a greater amount of discounts available to the general public, but also given people the fun and enjoyment of planning and booking their own trips.

Are travel agents a thing of the past? The future isn't looking too rosy for them. They might perhaps retain their presence in certain specialist markets, where they can offer a unique service to individual market segments - but if you're a 'love all, serve all' travel agent you've probably seen your income levels drop significantly over the last few years.
