How to promote your website on a low budget?

Jun 05, 2007

This link titled How to promote your website with $100 tells you how to promote your website on a low budget. Although the suggestions listed there go way beyond the $100 budget, you CAN promote your website, almost free-of-cost, by methodically spending your time on generating quality content; networking with other bloggers and participating on different forums. This takes lots of time and effort, of course, but if you have time and talent, but not money, this is the best way to go.

My recent observation has been that if you only write great content, then too you get quality traffic provided you have the initial push; I mean, there has to be at least some traffic for the initial buzz. If you keep on adding great content to your website or blog, eventually the traffic will build up, but it’ll take more time. So the best thing to do is, maintain a balance between generating great content, networking with other bloggers and webmasters, and leaving comments on other blogs and online forums.

Generating quality content does two things:

Brings readers to your website/blog again and again
Encourages people to link to you

The second bullet is also called as linkbaiting these days. Linkbait content can get you lots of traffic from social bookmarking websites like Digg, del.icio.us and StumbleUpon.
