Quick Tip – Getting FREE Traffic

Posted by Matthew Berman On April - 10 - 2007

This one should be obvious to most, but I just realized how much I really use this method. If you belong to a social networking site such as MySpace or Facebook, what better place to give your links to people than these! I am a Facebook man myself, and the reason is because MySpace is so spammy. So I am pretty much contradicting myself asking people to spam Facebook, when I hate MySpace for that exact reason…OH WELL! :) .

So if you have a website you want to promote or a mini niche site you want traffic to come to, post it on your favorite social network. Since I use facebook I click on “My Shares.” I put my link in there and boom, hundreds of people see the link, a picture, and a caption. I get a decent amount of traffic from Facebook to Juicefeed.com. So go ahead and if you don’t mind doing a little spam-work, post your link to these social networks.

Hay Matthew, I have a question. Where is “My Shares” located in a person’s Facebook profile? I looked all over it but can not find it.

I did however, find something ever blogger will like, no, let me change that. Will love. It’s called “Blog RSS Feed Reader” and it places your feed onto your Facebook page. How sweet is that? I found it by typing “my Shares ” into the application search function on Facebook( I did not know where the hell “My Shares” was located so I said what the hell and searched for it there).

hey reginald,

good find. i will take a look at that.

I believe what you’re talking about is “posted items” in the left sidebar. you can post links there.

thanks for the comments!

Gotcha. That Feed program might eliminate the need for that though.
