You can get traffic from youtube. Last week I had 3000 referrals from youtube.
The key, of course, is to build up a popular youtube channel.
Create a great movie, and make lots of friends on youtube and try to get many subscribers.
Any time you post a new movie, add your website url as the first thing in the description field.
It will not help much for seo as the link has no-follow, but people click on the links,
which leads to more exposure for you, which in turn leads to more incoming links if your site is good, and so on.
Youtube is a great way to get some visitors, but the problem is creating a unique video.
A good way to get extra visitors from youtube is putting up a video just after a popular sports match,
TV show and other events.
Another problem is that a movie take time to create and they can be taken down at any time due to copyright issues,
unless you are creating guides, which again takes time.
Youtube comments don't accept URLs at all, but in your description field, you can add URLs.
The link will have no-follow but if your video gets popular, you get lots of visitors from the link.
Personally I prefer traffic from google more than anything else.
The reason is that google traffic is usually targeted and you will experience a lot of traffic
for a lot of time if you hit the google's first page for a certain competitive keyword.
It takes time but it is definitely worth it.
Research for keywords is very important and something that can sometimes be ignored.
It's no use targeting a topic that gets 40000 searches a day if there is no chance of getting
anywhere near the top of the competition.
You need to be realistic and may be better off targeting some keywords with 300 searches a day with
little search engine competition and you feel very confident of being able to gain the top spot in Google.
You can also exchanging links with similiar topic webmasters and if your a blogger,
do a guest blog post on some popular blog with a link back to yours or write a few articles
on your specific topic topic and post them on popular free submission article sites
with a backlink to your own website.
Social bookmark sites might help if you want instant traffic but they are usually not targeted.
Another good technique to get traffic is answering on yahoo answers, and leaving your homepage as source.
I get around 20 visitors per day from yahoo answers.
For me search engine optimization is the key to get traffic and if you do search engine optimization you will have traffic
which converts very okay.
Design your homepage with seo optimized long tail keyword with low competition.
This will easily let your webpage dominate google and there will be instant monthly traffic.
If you want to get more targeted visitors and increase your earnings than you must geographically
target your site with google webmasters tools.
To do that, follow this easy steps:
1. Sign in your google account
2. Go to Site Configuration/Settings
3. Check the Geographic target box and select the country from which you want to receive more visitors
4. Click on Save
Now whenever a person from your targeted country will do a search on google with your websites keyword,
your result will be displayed higher in thats person google search result and you'll get more targeted
traffic, and by this more earnings.
