Have you ever known someone that didn’t like to receive things for Free…? Neither have I. In fact most people can spend hours searching the internet for free quality content.
If you want to build targeted traffic to your site you have to think outside the box. Search Engine Rankings and Advertising campaigns are not the only ways to drive people to look at you site. By adding free downloads you will attract visitors by hundreds, if not thousands.
Downloads are extremely popular, especially when they are free. With many sites charging outrages prices for the littlest download, a freebie will be more than welcomed by your audience.
You might be wondering “what can I offer as a free download?”. There are plenty of options to choose from. The most popular item is an ebook. If you have a certain expertise, you can apply your knowledge and write articles about a certain subject. You can later compile them and offer them as a Free Ebook. If you lack of knowledge or simply don’t have the time to write an Ebook, you can download/purchase ebooks that give you resell rights so you can distribute them with no problem. (Always verify that you were given the resell rights on a written document) .
Other formats of Freebies can include MP3s, Videos and Software. (I repeat… You must own the rights to such items before giving them away).
The benefit of Ebooks over other types of Freebies is that we can recycle the information in it by publishing its content in article directories to help increase even further the number of clicks, but we won’t talk about that right now.
Needless to say, if your website is about computers, your freebie must be of a related topic. The beauty of offering free things is that people visit your site and receive more value than they had expected. This will encourage them to visit your site again, o even bookmark it, and refer them to their friends.
Because a downloadable freebie is an electronic document which can be shared, it is wise to include a link to your website, in case this document is passed on from a user to an outsider. For example, if you decide to use an Ebook, you should write after an article about Local Area Networks LANs For more information on how to setup a LAN visit http://www.yoursite.com
Adding Free Quality content will dramatically benefit your credibility amongst webusers and will help you create a relationship with them. It is strongly recommended that you update your freebies on a regular basis, and if you already know when you might be able to release a new Free Download, it will help if you tell them when these new Freebies will be released (eg. New E-book “How to build a PC from Scratch” Available FREE from October 15)
