Pay Per Click Ads

This is considered to be one of the best ways to get targeted traffic to one's site. The bidder bids for certain key words that are related to his or her site.

Article Marketing

By many, this is considered viral marketing. It is also considered niche marketing. In this form of marketing, a marketer (or his hired writer) writes articles related to the specific niche he or she is marketing towards. The articles might address any particular topic, issue, or concern related to their chosen subject. It may also contain tips or how to information on their specific niche.

These articles are intended to get the reader's interest and keep it for the duration of the article. Through the "about the author" box, the author gives a brief sale pitch about the target site. If the reader likes the information presented in the article he or she is more likely to visit the site. They may also be more inclined to purchase from the site. The articles should never be blatant sales letters nor should they be copied material from another article or site.

As a final note on this particular form of advertising, it should be noted that, more often than not, these articles are often found in searches before the sites they represent do.

These are among the best ways possible to obtain targeted traffic. They can produce awesome results for the Internet Marketer. Some may take a little time to work while others produce faster results.
