Don't be a victim in this game... (5)

Free Viral Traffic Scams

Most are unworkable or just feed your emails to a list that someone will try to sell you crap - and of course you will be stuck promoting other people's product(s) first before you see any real traffic or forced to "upgrade" to the paid version to make it work.

I have seen this variation in all kinds of marketing. In general you are told your URL will go viral and you add your website to a list of say 5 other people who have done the same. Now go somewhere and send this to some people and they will do the same causing your ad / URL to be seen by millions . . .

This seems probable and the math makes sense; but the real issue here is human nature - the focus of this tool is supposed to be to get people to look at your site. The problem is just like the traffic exchange, or FFA page issue; NOBODY cares about you or your business unless you give them a really good reason to do so and they only care about their success, thus there is no motivation to seriously consider visiting your site and using your offer!

So again this fails miserably as people are only concerned with themselves and do not care about your success. The best viral traffic offers that seem to have some promise always include a what's in it for me aspect but it is the ORIGINATOR of this program that gets the real traffic benefit not the people who add their http and push this to other people.

Again you need to be the CREATOR of a viral traffic idea and make part of this page dedicated to something you know these people can benefit immediately from or this will not work.

Don't be a victim in this game, make sure you get the right knowledge from the start...
