How To Get 1,000 + Visitors Per Day From Facebook Fan Pages
Now I know everyone goes ape shit over Twitter being the greatest thing since slice bread and has great appeal as a social marketing tool, but in all honesty Facebook holds far more weight. From the perspective of a website owner Facebook has much more social value.
About eight months ago I decided to set up a fan page for my hip hop blog (HipHopMusicDotCom.com), I didn’t do much with it until I noticed I was getting fans most of which were most likely referred by my friends who I initially invited when I first launched the page.
It wasn’t until September 24th that I really started to see the benefits of using Facebook fan pages. Since that date I’ve been averaging 1,000 new fans per month and averaging 1,000 + visitors per day which has increased my overall traffic by 14 percent. At this rate I’ll be averaging 2,000,000 page views per month by December.

Stumble ItHow To Get Long Lasting Traffic From Wikipedia
I know right now everyone is crazy about Twitter including my self but on my music site Music Video Cast , Twitter doesn’t drive any traffic to that site at all. This might be due to the fact that I haven’t incorporated Twitter into the marketing efforts for Music Video Cast. None the less one of the largest traffic sources to that site is Wikipedia. I’ve been experimenting with Wikipedia for over a year now and I’ve pretty much figured out what works and what doesn’t.
The key to getting traffic from Wikipedia is to simply post external and reference links. I’ve spent quite some time posting up many different types of links to see which ones would get removed and which ones would remain. In general as long as the content is related to the topic the links will usual remain on the Wiki page. Now of course there are some exceptions to the rule for instance if your linking to copyrighted content the link will quickly be removed by a moderator, Try to keep post rejected links to a minimum be eventually those links will automatically get remove and if they will you’re a spammer they will ban you by your IP address so you can’t edit and Wikipedia articles anymore. Judging by how quickly I’ve seen links removed from Wikipedia I figure there has to be at least a thousand moderators at any given time of the day to handle the millions of submission they receive daily.
Since my site is music related I was mostly on the artist’s song pages. Once I started getting traffic I needed somewhere to send that traffic which is when I decided to start promoting music affiliate programs specifically ringtone affiliate programs. I’ve had some success with driving traffic to ringtone affiliate programs but it’s a bit tricky, for instance I send traffic to ringtone affiliate programs for Fontonia, Thumplay and SendMeMobile. I split test to see which one converted the best and to also see what links would get removed. Fontonia turned out to be the preferred choice because they had the highest payout.
How to Get Traffic To Your Website From Twitter
They are so many people out there that just don’t like Twitter for different reasons, some may argue that they don’t feel the need to let everyone know every single mundane activity there performing. Others will say it’s too simple and something like that won’t last very long. When the truth is that the power is in it’s simplicity, 90 percent of the world prefer things to be simple this is why Twitter works and why it’s growing at such a fast rate. Just imagine having 10,000 plus followers you can send to any product or service.
Most Marketers, Bloggers, Media/News companies and Businesses have already realized the advantages of using Twitter help build their brand. I just implemented Twitter on my music blog this month and I’m averaging 30 to 40 followers daily, We are now half way through the month and I’ve already received 1500 visits from Twitter and that’s with just over a 100 followers.
