The Typical Online Marketing Success Model - The Truth About How Most Sites Grow From Zero to Huge Traffic
In all your frustrating efforts so far to build traffic to your site and get things moving, a closer look at the typical online marketing success model will greatly encourage and inspire you. More so because, contrary to common belief, most sites do not start with spending money on their marketing to build up their huge traffic. In fact the typical online marketing business model is a site starting off with free tools and lots of creativity and then spending money later, when they are already very big.
There are too many examples of this to count, but let us mention a just a few here. Amazon.com started off with founder Jeff Bezos appealing to a few friends and well wishers to spread the word around. That was the beginning of what we now know as affiliate programs. This is where you get a few of your initial visitors (as many as you can convince) to market your site to others by directing traffic from their site or ezine to yours. In return any visitors that end up making a purchase that came from your direction earn you a commission.
It seems that word of mouth in one form or another has been the most powerful tool for generating high traffic and making various well-known sites a huge success. This is certainly the case with sites like Yahoo.com and Ebay.com. And I can mention numerous other examples.
The rise of blogs has gone even further to greatly emphasize on this point of view. Blogs are being launched every day and every day some blog rises to fame and fortune with the sort of volume in traffic that is the envy of everybody. None that I have personally heard of so far used paid advertising to get up there. Amazingly some did nothing but keep their content fascinating as other blogs all over the net feverishly created links pointing in their direction. It is telling that one of Technorati’s major ways of gauging blogs is by analyzing and counting the number of links pointing in their direction.
So get rid of all those guilt feelings that tell you your site will never grew big without you spending big. Instead roll up your sleeves and get to work with all those free tools. Who knows, your site could become more successful than you imagined.
