Website Content = Traffic
Ideally, once you get traffic to your site, it will remain a high-traffic site--WRONG. Most people when surfing are looking for information-valuable information, about everything from money, news, products, jobs, etc. Therefore, it's extremely important to make sure that the content you provide on your website is of good quality and true (to the best of your knowledge, lying will only come back to bite you in the butt). So ask yourself, does this information give my visitors what they are looking for, or does it provide a solution to a problem? Also, do I provide them with other useful information along within their search, or places to go to get more free info?
Search engines love free information just as much as consumers do, try providing a free subscription, e-book, or newsletter to bring free traffic to your site. Its sites whom provide valuable information that receive repeat visitors AND referrals. It's also important that you place keywords on your site. This will help you receive higher rankings in the search engines and here’s why; when keywords are typed into search engines the search engines send out "spiders" which are programs that crawl across the web indexing pages automatically with the listed keywords located on them-so the more words you have relating the search, the better. Also, don’t overdo meta-tags, though they can increase visibility, most search engines use them as a flag for potential abuse, and if abuse is detected the search engine will issue a penalty.
Lastly, try to provide information on other topics, or sub-topics on your site, for example, if your site is about giving piano lessons, you may want to provide information about where one can go online to find pianos or sheet music. If you already own a business and are looking to expand it online your best bet is to go with a favorable SEO company; especially if your looking to see your site placed in a top 20 ranking in the search engines, which will increase your visibility, conversion rate and increase profits.

Using forum posting to drive traffic
Post relevant information to forums and genuinely contribute to discussions. And have your signature along so that your link will be there. When you visit sites with guestbook, forums, or blogs make posting leaving your link behind. And people will click it and find your site and shop.
Go to big boards for a list of forums.
But all the forums are yelling, “Don’t abuse forum rules!” What are forum rules? They don’t want you to post a link, even if it offers help. If you do, the moderator will delete your entry immediately and have you banned. If your signature is even allowed, nobody reads signatures. Ask this: when is the last time you personally read a signature?
It is only when your comments and discussion is so powerful that people will trace you. Like most traffic techniques, fun comes in first.
You should just try to help other and have fun while posting in forums and leave your signature so that anyone interested in you can find you.

How To Sky-Rocket Your Profits By 267% With One Simple Sentence
If you have even a passing interest in the topic of boosting your profits, then you should take a look at the following information. This enlightening article presents some of the latest news on the subject of boost your profits.
Don't think it's possible to jump sales by 267% with one sentence? I'll show you how I did it and you can implement the same strategy in less than 5 minutes on your site!
This strategy is so powerful that it can literally jump your profits OVERNIGHT!
All people doing business on the Internet are always trying to find ways to get their offer the the most targeted prospects available. Always trying to figure out, "What do I offer my proven customer next?"
Here's what I did to BLAZE profits 267% overnight:
When my customers would click order they would be taken directly to a secure order form to enter their payment information. I came with the following strategy when brainstorming one late night....
Instead of sending them directly to the payment page I setup a page that offered a discount of 10% of their order if they would answer one simple question:
Once you begin to move beyond basic background information, you begin to realize that there's more to boost your profits than you may have first thought.
What would you be most likely to purchase in the next three months?
I then had a drop down menu with three products I was selling at the time.
All the customer had to do was enter their e-mail address and then choose an answer and they would instantly be taken to the order form with the 10% discount.
Why did I give them 10% off for that one simple question?
When they submitted that question it was automatically entered into a data base with all the other customers that took me up on the offer. Two months after implementing this one simple question I pulled up my database, filtered it to the products customers expressed interest in and send a special customer offer to each of them.
What happened? Out of 120 customers, 96 bought! can you belive that? An incredible 80% response rate on a sales letter is unheard of...but these customers where so targeted because of the simple question I setup that the response rate was unreal!
Jump on this strategy now, you just can't afford to pass up that kind of profit!
