If your money making website does not have decent web traffic it will be very difficult for you to turn it into a money generating machine. It is good that you have original and well-developed content, a catchy headline, and an attractive presentation. That is not enough. There are billions of websites on the Internet, but when you search a specific keyword in a search engine, it shows only ten websites on the first page. Your objective is to have your money making website listed on the first page of the search engine results. In order to do this, you will have to work hard in marketing your site. There are several ways to achieve good traffic. Let me share with you some of these impressive ways.
Every search engine has their own set of rules that they follow to rank a specific website on their search results. Make sure that your website meets those requirements. For example, you must have original content which is optimized thoroughly with the right keywords. You must also write the meta tags carefully. It is very important for you to understand that overuse of keywords is not good for the health of your money making website. Search engine spiders hate content that has overuse of certain keywords.
Pay per click advertisements on different search engines are another effective way to get some good traffic, especially for the beginners who have just launched a new site. In this method, you place the advertisement of your website on various search engines. Whenever a user looks for the specific keyword that you have chosen for your website, the search engines show the link to your money making website on the first page. The search engines charge a specific amount whenever a user follows that link and visits your website. However, you do not need to pay anything just for showing your website. You pay only when someone clicks on that link. Using this method, you can get hundreds of visitors at the cost of just $10 to $20.
The more back links you have, the better are the chances for your website to be ranked high by search engines. The back links are the links to your site that are placed on other high traffic websites. You can do this by offering link exchanges to other websites. This method is useful for those who already have a good traffic for their money making website and are looking to improve it. A high traffic website will not entertain link exchange with a low traffic site.
Overall, if you follow the above strategies thoroughly, you will not have to wait for long before you can achieve good traffic for your money making website.

Free Website Building and Web 2.0 – an Introduction
Web 2.0 is the Internet’s latest buzz word. But what exactly does it mean? And how what can it do for you? We’re going to take a look at how a free website builder from Webeden.co.uk can help you to get involved with Web 2.0 and use it to make your website even better.
What is Webeden.co.uk?
Webeden.co.uk is a free website building tool that allows you to create your own website from any computer with an internet connection. Making a website with Webeden.co.uk is childs play, but that doesn’t mean that your site will look like a child has designed it! Many top website designers use Webeden.co.uk to build websites for their customers.
What is Web 2.0?
Web 2.0 describes a type of website where the communication between website and visitor is two way. ‘Old’ websites (web 1.0!) were platforms for an individual or company to distribute information to website visitors about a product, service or idea. Web 2.0 allows those website visitors to contribute to the website, whether in the form of leaving comments, posting suggestions, or interacting with other visitors. This contribution by the website visitor is often called ‘user generated content’ or UCG.
How can Webeden.co.uk help me with Web 2.0?
Quite simply, the Webeden.co.uk website builder has hundreds of built in widgets that the website owner can add to their website with a click of the mouse. These widgets let website visitors interact with each other and the website owner. There’s nothing new and exciting about these interactive tools, the key difference is that with webeden.co.uk they can be added to your website by simply clicking on a button, whereas previously you needed to be a technical wizard to install and run them on your website. Here’s some more details about the most common ones.
Chat feature
This allows you to instantly answer any questions that your website visitor might have. They can click ‘chat with an advisor’ whereupon a box will appear on their screen. Any question they type into that box is sent immediately to the screen of the website owners – it’s the equivalent of having a shop assistant on hand to answer any question. You, the website owner, can also do the shop assistant thing and ‘prompt’ your visitors by asking if they need any help. Of course, some people find this intrusive in real life, so you can bet they will also find it intrusive when they’re on a website. So use sparingly!
Comment Widget
Visitors often don’t want to communicate just to you (the site owner) but want to speak to other visitors to your website. That’s where the comments widget comes in. If your website visitors want to leave a note on your website about any articles, products, or ideas, they can use the comments box. If you want to allow visitors to your website the opportunity to add comments, all you need to do is click ‘add comments widget’ from within your control panel, and then select a place on your website for the widget to be. Build a website with Webeden and watch the comments roll in!
Mail to a friend
This is one of the oldest ideas on the web, a real forerunner of Web 2.0. One of the best ways that you can get recommendations about your site, is by adding a ‘mail to a friend’ feature. Its an opportunity for visitors to your website to directly market your site to their nearest and dearest. And don’t forgot, a personal recommendation is worth ten times that an article or advert. This makes ‘mail to a friend one of the best features you can add to your webeden website. Just click click ‘add’ from your webeden control panel and then select a place for it to go. And that’s it – all done.
