Traffic sites not making me any money

[ladiraes]

So I have tried all these free traffic websites, people are clicking on my sites, but no one ever purchases. Is there any other way to do this. Im just stuck I guess. Any help would be great.

1. Not all traffic is created equal. You need targeted traffic.
2. You need to know how to convert your visitors to buyers. If you're in affiliate marketing you need to learn how to PRESELL. Learn the ropes of conversion or preselling.

In short: You need to learn how to market.
It's not so easy as getting traffic somehow and then they will buy from you. You need to give the people exactly what they want, catch them where they are and offer a solution to a pressing problem for example, and they will pick out of your hands.

Hope that helps. :)

The best thing to do is to find high traffic websites and put your information there. I just found out about Digg, and Technorati and Stumbleupon. You can write articles and place them on these websites and include links to your affiliate program, or whatever you are promoting. I just started using Digg, and am expecting miracles there. A lot of "free" websites don't work-I've tried them. It's best to use huge traffic websites like the ones I listed.

Not sure what it is you're trying to sell, but you should primarily use the
traffic exchanges to capture subscribers and then make them offer later.

Very right! That's the way to go! :)

Offer them something free as a big incentive to click to your webpage, for opting in to your list. You can offer for example a free 6 part email course or a free report or a whole bunch of products for opting in.

Then you have the chance to follow up with them multiple times and to build trust. People buy only after the 7th contact in average, as a internet marketing study has shown.

What sites are you referring to?

Traffic is sometimes useless in some niches. Its the conversion rate that sets aside normal traffic from targetted traffic. Identify which market you would really like to cater to and then start from there. Focus more on how to reach your desired market and then consider trying other methods of marketing - like PPC, targetted link backs, etc.
