Ever Tried Offline Marketing For More Traffic?

Sick of adwords, directory submissions, social bookmarking and various online traffic generating methods? well don’t be, since those methods really work. However right now im not here to talk to you on them, I’m going to write about something different, actually totally opposite. Offline marketing!

Most people spend countless dollars and time on online marketing. Not that its not important, but most bloggers or webmasters are missing an important aspect of Marketing. How often have you thought of promoting your website or blog to the outside world without the internet? I myself never thought about it until a few weeks ago, and trust me that move was very rewarding.

Okay let’s cut the crap and see how we can drive potential customers.

1) Give out Flyers – This was the first method which struck into my head when I was trying out offline marketing. The fact that I do a paper run my self was a big help. Just go to a printing press and print out a few thousand advertisements and give em out. If by chance you decide not to print out the papers well just take a few pieces of paper and write down your site address. But if your really down with this method, then go to your local paper delivery guys and get a contract, which is the easiest since you only have to pay for it.

2) Decals – This next method is for those who travel a lot, By your own car of course. A friend of worked out this method and got really impressive results, as a matter of fact he himself showed me the major increase in traffic and alexa ranking. I personally didn’t use this method since I Don’t really go out by car, I take a bus instead ( Cars = pollution :P ).

3) Posters – This method is really effective but can be quite controversial. Putting up poster and banners on the streets is fine as long as you don’t do it illegally.

4) Word of mouth – This is a very basic method and is quite self-explanatory. When I go out I always tell people about my blog. In front of friends or in a meeting, you can always tell the folks about your website.

Offline Marketing is very effective and is very under-rated.
