Myth: Free Online Traffic (There is No Such Thing as Free Traffic)

The free traffic myth defused. Granted, you can free traffic that happens on your site. You can get free search engine traffic, but search engine traffic is not free because to get free search engine traffic you have to spend money. Well, you don't have to spend money, but you do have to spend time and/or money to get the right kind of links coming into your sight. Even with article marketing, the article is not free. Even if you write the articles yourself, your time still has a value. Let's just say in the real world, you're worth twenty bucks an hour, whatever your job is. Okay, and hopefully that's a low number for everybody on this phone call. Okay, I think average for the United States is like $25 or $27 an hour.

But we can even use that number, let's say $25 bucks an hour. So, if you spend two hours writing articles every single day, it's costing you $50 a day in foregone income that you could have made somewhere else. So even article marketing is not free traffic.

Link building is not free traffic. There's no such thing as free traffic that's consistent that's long term that you don't have to put something into to get that free traffic. Now, sure, I generate, and I haven't even looked at my web stats in three months, I look at my conversions. I have not pulled up my web stats I three months.

The last time I checked, I was averaging about 20,000 visits, unique visits every single month. Three quarters of those come from the people on my list, those are people who've come to me for a long period of time. They're on my list. I send them e-mails. They open them. They click through. I get about 4500 unique views every single month. Maybe 5% of those are free traffic, the other 95% I spend money for. I spend about $4000 a month on traffic,and I come up with around 4500 unique traffic visits a month, so I'm spending around a dollar per visit. And sure, 5% of them are free, but are they really free? It wouldn't have happened if I wasn't spending a dollar a visit on all the rest of them.

So, in my opinion there's no such thing as free traffic. If you want to get to $5000 a month, you're going to have to spend some money making that happen. Or you have to spend a lot of time. You know, you may have a full time job, and you work forty hours a week. And you know maybe at night you;re going to have spend twenty hours a week, or thirty hours a week building your business and those are going to have to be real working hours.
