how do you get traffic to your games or songs?

Thanks for the publicity credit :)

I also said:

screensavers
e-books
banner exchanges
sales inside membership areas
online classifieds
PC operating system (eg Microsoft)

All of these are widely used methods for driving traffic to a websites.

Where are they on your list?

Or how are they stupid?

Just noticed Due said banner swap first :)

screensaver + e-books - how do you get traffic to your screensavers or e-books?

banner exchanges - already mentioned

sales inside membership areas - not a traffic source

online classifieds - where can u publish them?

PC operating system - ??

lol oops :D

got the cash! thanks.

I don't see p2p on your list, want to know how to get traffic through it?

filesharing is on the list. and thanks. i already get traffic through gnutella (we're working on other protocols as well) :glugglug

I'll send you my tutorial for other protocols. :thumbsup

The e-books and screensavers are given away or sold via media such as websites, e-mail, bundled with other downloads or software CDs, e-book or software directories, auction sites, online classifieds, etc

The e-books and screensavers contain multiple links to websites. People click those links and that generates traffic. It is a VERY widely used strategy and is VERY effective.

banner exchanges - already mentioned

Yep, I noticed that after I posted. :)

Quote:

sales inside membership areas - not a traffic source

It is a traffic source for the sites that are receiving referrals from the membership areas. If you send one of my sites traffic from your membership area, it is a prime source of well-qualified credit card holding traffic.

Take you pick:

A major basis of the anti-competition law suit against Microsoft was that they were integrating a browser with their OS and using that to refer traffic to Microsoft owned websites and partner websites. It was such a powerful traffic generating strategy that it was deemed anti-competitive behavior.

use your head... ebooks = download.com = mad traffic I have done it for years!

If he could built a new successful operating system he would do it, but without it the idea is just theoretical and pointless :winkwink:
