This is an article I wrote for my Medium account. You can see more of my articles on Medium here. I still use these free traffic sources everyday, as they deliver great results to my offers. Each site mentioned has a direct link where you can sign up for free and start using the platforms immediately.
For me there are two types of free traffic. Passive or organic, and active. That is, active traffic that you generate through exchanges or free traffic platforms. Here are my 3 best and guaranteed free traffic websites that I use every day.
Understand, when I say free traffic there are some specific qualifiers that must be met before I’ll give up my precious time in building my business.
First, the platform has to be active.
The old days of an online bulletin board and FFA sites when we were using floppy discs to run our computers are long gone. Everything and anything was posted on those bulletin boards, the ones that everybody posted on and nobody read.
There must regularly be fresh eyes and fresh advertising within the platform.
Second, the platform has to have active members.
If everybody simply posts and nobody has any interest in B2B ventures, you simply have a very colorful classified page. The bulletin boards of the past unfortunately left a very bad taste in our mouths.
The good news is today’s free advertising platforms are more like business commerce centers with a lot of give-and-take.
Third, the platform has to be scalable, and have other advertising offers available.
It’s been said over and over again, “the money is in the list!” What if you could plug into someone else’s list? Then, what if you could plug into 5, or 10 other lists and send solo ads for a fraction of the typical price?
That’s the beauty of the free advertising sites. There should be ample opportunity for scaling your advertising efforts, and balance them between free and paid.
All three of these free traffic websites click all the boxes for me.
The other great thing about all three is that they are absolutely free to join. You also can immediately place your advertising on the site to send out to measure your responses.
If you’re running A/B or split tests, what better way than using as much free traffic as you can? Then when you find the best formula, drop money in it like throwing gasoline on a fire.
Smart money says test, test, test and then run with it full speed!
*** CAUTION: Before you run off and sign up with these platforms *** create a specific email account to use that will receive all the emails and announcements from these platforms. They recommend, or will only use a Gmail account.
Here’s my 3 best guaranteed free traffic websites:
State-Of-The-Art-Mailer
This free mailer provides the ability to mail out to up to 30,000 people depending on your membership level. It is one of the oldest established mailers and is considered the “Rolls Royce” of mailers. Click here to find out more information.
Herculist
Of all the mailers I use I spend the most time on Herculist. I can browse and gain points on my iPhone while sitting in a waiting room or trying to occupy myself for whatever reason. PRO TIP: When accumulating points it will give you a chance to “Win a Prize.” Click that every time. Those bonus points increase very quickly! Click here for more information.
Free Advertising For You
I have had some pretty substantial offers and training come across FAFY to me. The response rates for FAFY are the best of all free mailers. They track the active members against the non-active members and know immediately who to send your mailer to. Click here for more information.
3 Options for better business.
These three mailers allow you to scale your traffic as needed. You will probably quickly develop a favorite as I have.
They are easy to use, but more importantly, I can see measurable results from using them. And that simply, is the bottom line, isn’t it? They deliver what they claim – free traffic.
The only question is, how much time and energy do you want to devote to expanding your online business?
