Traffic Generation is the backbone of a successful website. Everybody wants to have a mass of traffic to their websites each and everyday. Whether you are trying to promote your own product, promote an affiliate product or 
generate web traffic for your business website we all want (read need) traffic.
These days it is all about Search Engine Optimization and Traffic Generation. Regardless of whether you have an amazing product that would benefit millions, in order to convert that into sales you need hits on your website.
A extremely effective traffic generation technique that you should be using is that of Article Marketing. Article Marketing is basically the technique of publishing articles to “Article Directories”.
Article Directories are large repository collections of articles covering a wide breath of topic areas. Article Directories offer what is called a ‘resource box’ where the author of the article can provide some details about themselves and include links back to their own website(s).
Articles directories have high Page Rank and do very well in the search engine results, so the idea is that:
- You publish high quality content to article directories
- They rank well in search engines and people read them
- The readers want further information, so click on your links and navigate through to your website
Hence you have now generated traffic using Article Marketing.
The advantage of using Article Marketing for Traffic Generation is that if your articles are high in quality and offer good information, the articles may be copied by visitors to use on their own websites. The people who reuse your articles must retain your author box – which of course contains the links back to you website.
This ability to syndicate your content will not only allow your links to be distributed to other places bringing in traffic, it also brings a SEO element with the number of backlinks pointing to your website increasing. Traffic Generation using Article Marketing should form the foundation for all traffic generation and backlink building techniques that you employ.
Traffic Generation using Article Marketing is one of the best ways to get a boost in the number of visitors to your website. It definitely does take time and effort in creating high quality content, however the benefits that will be returned will be long-term.

Totally agree. Article Marketing tends to be one of the most overlooked strategies because a lot of people don’t fully understand the true impact it can have.
Seems too many people are concerned about the NoFollow vs. DoFollow issue with most of these article marketing websites. It’s funny because they refuse to write articles and will sit back and say, “Oh, _____ website doesn’t work.” I crack up!
Ezine seems to still hang on as the largest… should be interesting to see what’s coming out in the next few months with the surge in Internet Technology we are living in!
