Do you want to grow your business online for free? Well, who doesn’t? The problem is it’s hard to grow your business and market it unless you have a big marketing budget, right? That’s just rubbish. You don’t need money to market your business. Today I’m going to teach you how you can market your website when you have no money to spend on advertising.
If you’re trying to market your website and you don’t have any money to spend on advertising, here’s what you want to do.
1. Quora
First, go to Quora and type in all the questions people within your space may have. You’ll start seeing tons of questions and popular ones that are getting a lot of votes. Go into those questions, answer them.
By helping people out you’ll notice that more people will see who you are, they’ll come back to your website, and then they’ll purchase. It really is that simple. It’s a great way to leverage their traffic to generate traffic back to your website and generate sales. Best of all, I don’t have to spend any money to do that.
2. Post on Social Media
The second thing that you should be doing is posting your content on social media. The beautiful thing about the web is social media is free. It doesn’t cost to be on there. It can videos, it can be text, it can be audios like podcasts.
Creating these type of text formats or content and then pushing out on social media is a great way to get more traffic. You write a blog post. Post it on LinkedIn. You write another blog post. Again, post it on Facebook or Twitter. The possibilities are endless.
Continually share your content everywhere. You know what I do? I write a blog post once on my website. Then I post the same content on LinkedIn. After adding a few paragraphs on LinkedIn I say, “Hey, click to continue reading the rest.” It makes them go back to my website to read the rest of the article. So sharing your content on social media is another great way to get traffic. It’s that simple.
If you don’t have a popular LinkedIn profile, or you don’t want to use Quora, just google for forums within your space. So if you’re in the marketing space, just google marketing forum. You’ll see a list of forums. Go to them. Respond to questions that you can answer. In the footer of each of your forum responses add a signature link to your website.
So, go respond to people who are asking questions on Forums. Go to LinkedIn. Go on Quora. Look for people who are asking about stuff within your field. It’s a great way to get more traffic. All of these strategies will get more visitors back to your site. More traffic, means more sales.
