This is literally a roadmap to success, so listen closely…

Jack “The Web2King” Humphrey recently conducted a case study interview with Rusty Moore.

Rusty is one of Jack’s members and needless to say he has taken the ball and hasn’t stopped running with it.

Rusty Moore has been with Jack since May 2007. His site, FitnessBlackBook, gets around 3000 unique visitors per day. Just one of his pages makes him over $300 per month. Other pages and posts more or less than that.

He attributes his success to the training and examples he’s gotten with Jack, the people he’s met because of his powerful presence and following in the fitness niche, and the content he puts up on his blog.

In this short interview he outlines how he is doing with his blog, what has made the difference for him in building the blog, and his plans for future growth.

This is a must-hear interview for anyone wanting to generate free traffic using a blog

No, this isn’t the Wizard Of Oz (my favorite movie in the whole world by the way), it’s Internet marketing. Okay Web 2.0 marketing, or maybe it’s article marketing.

To put it simply creating content pages on social sites to spread my marketing messages around and get backlinks.

I don’t do enough of this much anymore, so it’s time to get back to doing more “message spreading” than just relying on joint venture partners. Don’t get me wrong. Thats still my number 1 way to get traffic to my product sites, but it’s time to start doing more again.

I’m going to be creating a daily marketing plan for each of my sites, and using this part of my blog to report what I’m doing. Now I may not post every day what I’m doing because that would just be posting the same information, but I do want to tell you what I did today to promote my new site www.MyVideoCashMachines.com

This site teaches you how to use video marketing to make affiliate cash. Find a product to promote as an affiliate, use video marketing the way I teach you, and you’ll make money.

Simple right? It is…

So to start promoting this site (by the way it does have a 100% commission affiliate program at myvideocashmachines.com/?action=affsignup) I had 15 articles written on 3 different keywords. 5 articles per keyword. I took 3 of those articles (all focused on one keyword phrase) and submitted them to EzineArticles.com and GoArticles.com

Those are basically the only two that I submit articles to anymore. Why? Because they give me the most traffic. Submitting to hundreds of article directories just isn’t working anymore, so I want to put my time where I’m getting something in return.

After submitting those 3 articles, I created a Squidoo Lens at www.squidoo.com/fastestwaytomakemoney with 1 article and a Hub Page at hubpages.com/hub/fastestwaytomakemoney with another article.

I created both of these pages with original content. I think that’s key to success with these sites.

Now I’m off to read…

1. Hub Page Cash Machine – www.ThisKicksButt.com/HubPageCashMachine
2. Ultimate Squidoo – www.ThisKicksButt.com/UltimateSquidoo

To get a better education on using Squidoo and Hub Pages.

Over the next few days I will take the other 10 articles (5 on another keyword phrase related to video marketing and the other 5 on yet another keyword phrase related to article marketing) submit 6 to the article directories and use the other 4 to make 2 more squidoo lenses, and 2 more hubpages.

I’ll update you, when I have done this, so you can see some examples of how you can be doing the same thing.

So far the new marketing list for this site looks like this:

1. Article marketing
2. Hub pages
3. Squidoo lenses

Once all of this is done, I’m also going to be testing eBay classified ads. I read Auction Classifed Cash (www.ThisKicksButt.com/AuctionClassifieds) and want to test it out.

All coming soon, and a ton more.

Point of this post?

To show you that marketing is about doing several things to get traffic to your site. There may be 10 things that you do, and maybe 4 of those you’ll do on a daily basis, but you’ve got to make a plan, test to see what works, and keep what works on a “to do” list.

Today, this post is all about using Web 2.0 tactics to really drive the traffic to your site. Since I came across Jack Humphrey (who is the king of blog marketing)a few months ago, I have literally been hooked on this web 2.0 stuff. Why? Because it’s an easy way to drive targeted traffic. Master it and use it each day, and you don’t have to pay for traffic, get other people to send you traffic or anything like that.

There are many web 2.0 traffic generation tactics, and you just need to find which ones work for you, how they work, and setup up a system to work them. There’s a kick butt post called “7 Tips For Making A Web 2.0 Blog Post” at www.seofeed.com/web_2_seo/7-tips-for-making-a-web-20-blog-post that will give you a good solid plan to get started with.

Take a look at that, put it to work and enjoy the traffic. Continue your education with web 2.0 strategies, and you can constantly add to your plan for even more traffic.

Since I run so many content sites, I’ve actually hired someone to do nothing but web 2.0 traffic tactics for all my content sites. For my sites I have that are marketing related, I’m even using web 2.0 traffic tactics for them. It’s been nice not having to harass JV partners day after day, or pay for advertising. My web 2.0 traffic tactics have kept sales coming in.

Now let me say that with your Internet marketing related sites, you wont want to JUST rely on web 2.0 traffic. If it weren’t for my JV partners, I wouldn’t make about 70% of the money I make, so never put all your eggs in one basket.

With my Adsense sites, I use web 2.0 traffic and article marketing, and that’s the same for my niche sites that I sell niche info products from. Yep, for those of you that don’t know, I actually dabble outside of Internet marketing too. IM is where my passion is though, so it’s where I do most of my “stuff”.

By building sites that are optimized for the search engines, and using a well planned out traffic strategy, you should have no problem getting traffic to your site. Check out the link I gave you above, make a post to your blog and follow it, and then immediately go out and find one more web 2.0 traffic strategy that you can add to it. Everytime you post, add one more, and pretty soon, you’ll have a truck load of visitors coming to you!
