Dear Content Marketer,
I’ve watched you closely for the past few months. Ya, in your basement!
It seems as if you’re not hitting the nail at the right spot.
The traffic to your website is shrinking. You don’t even know what next step to take to make thousands of dollars (at least) online.
I also understand that when you get out there – a thousand blogs all have the same type of content; none truly sticks to your brain.
The noise about free traffic generation is going outside the envelope.
You seem obedient. If only there was a way to get all the free traffic from Google, your business would have taken on a new leap. But isn’t there a secret you should uncover?
I’ve good and bad news for you.
Which side should I share first?
Okay, I’ll decide for you because at this time, what seems to be working for others might not really be turning out right for you.
The bad news is this: stop chasing after free traffic because you’re going to burn out anytime soon.
What?
What am I supposed to do if I’ve to grow my blog and attract readers? Don’t worry, I’ll tell you at the other side – where the good news lies.
Just remember that chasing free traffic isn’t the way to make it happen. It’s never the right way to become popular on the internet and make thousands of dollars.
The good news
The good news is that it’s now a lot easier to get thousands of free traffic from Google. Of course, you’ll need to make a smart move.
Did I just say that? You see, the Penguin 2.0 and other minor updates have opened up the vault for easy ranking in Google. Unbelievable, but true!
Most people have reported a 24 – 72 hour rankings for keywords that receive thousands of monthly searches.
You’ll have to find these keywords and start optimizing for them. Unfortunately, you’re not going to over-optimize or follow after the old keyword density rule.
What you should do to get free traffic?
I want to make this open letter as short as it can be. But I’ve to tell you what you should be doing right now to get thousands of free traffic from Google. You’ll need to:
- Research easy-to-rank keywords in your niche.
- Write fresh (don’t copy) content that will solve (just) one problem.
- Find a related keywords inside the fresh content you wrote, use it as an anchor and link out to (1 or 2) authority websites e.g. Wikipedia, Yahoo Answers etc.
- Share your content at Google+ and Twitter.
- Go to Digg and syndicate your fresh content (share your link at the footer of the site).
- Get fast indexing and watch out for quick rankings in Google top 10.
- To add to this; get a branded off-page link from a high PR active website. For instance, if your niche is health-related, go leave a comment at PR4 – PR8 blog.
Does it work?
Yes it does work. Surprisingly, it’s working fabulously for my niche sites. Every time I want my fresh content to index quickly, sharing my content at Digg, Reddit and Twitter always make it happen.
In fact, few days ago, I got indexed and ranked at Google #6 within 3 hours of publishing the content.
I’ve to end this letter by saying this: You’re not alone when it comes to getting free traffic. As a content marketer, we’re all looking for that loophole that nobody else has discovered.
Don’t frown at Google’s updates, no matter the name it bears.
Take advantage of it and find out what must be done to make your ideal customers stay longer at your site, share more and click your hyperlinks more. That’s what brings engagement – the #1 factor for fast and sustainable ranking.
I hope you’ve enjoyed this open letter. Now, I’m inviting you to go give it a try.
When you find a winning easy-to-rank keywords, don’t thank God it’s Friday and go rocking on the dance floor – use it to hijack free targeted traffic and start making real money online.
Thanks for reading.
Your faithfully,
For: Content Marketing Up Inc.

My site is not getting the expected traffic. I don’t know why, though I using some old techniques. now after reading your post I will for sure try these. My site is about video songs and its ranking is not getting better easily.. can you favor me about a video site.?

I like the way you have summarised the whole things in a very simpe and easiest ways. I have used twitter to generate traffic sometimes, Yes, I got lot of traffic but the traffic was not targeted one as out of 300 visitirs per day no click at all. I prefer using commenting on forum and blgs although it is very slow in traffic generation but the traffic is organic and targeted one

Hi Michael Chibuzor,
Thanks for sharing a great lesson about Traffic, I appropriated your all point which you have shared to get free traffic but I have just one question ! My don’t get fast index so in this case what I need to do.
Check if your site is banned by Google or penalized in any way.
Thank you for sharing it ways to get free organic traffic to my website.
No highfaluting words, just simple strategies to win the game of traffic. You did a fantastic job on this post, Michael.
You’ve provided some amazing tips to get fast indexing and rankings Michael
Thank for sharing.
I’m glad that I could be of help to you, through my post.
hello sir,
i all ready have a website and i need to traffic on my website so please give me some idea to generate more organic traffic on my website replay must be possible.
Haha Michael… Na wa……… Ha! You’re a clown… A BIG ONE.
Mike, I made a couple of affiliate sales just by linking to an authority site in my niche. I think your tips are perfect for driving traffic to a niche site
Thanks man
Dan
I’m proud of you Man!
This one is really a cool post Michael. Your points are really noteworthy. Creating a fresh content with keywords in your niche definitely ranks you better in search engines. Putting that little effort while writing the posts definitely will bring you a good amount of traffic to your website which is organic
I appreciate the effort you put into reading my post. God bless ya!
Personally I have never thought of using Wikipedia as a source of free traffic, so it came as a surprise when I discovered that I could indeed funnel traffic from Wikipedia and onto my website.
Hey Martin. Actually, I didn’t quote that you’ll get traffic from Wikipedia. According to the post, I did say that linking out to a relevant content on Wikipedia would help Google see your own fresh content as relevant and valuable. Because wikipedia is an authority, and if you link out to them to further help your readers get a wider scope on the topic, you’ll create engagement and make people happy. That’s the secret of boosting organic traffic and rankings. Does it make sense to you now?
You have given few amazing ideas to get fast indexing and rankings Michael. This is straight to the point, with helpful high PR sites to back it up. Good job.
Thankyou
As always Sonam, thank you for reading and dropping a fabulous comment.
I found (through countless trials and errors) that rankings are “easy” to get if you know what you’re doing (I use a similar formula as your 7-step approach, where “Easy to rank” keyword research is a must…).
Glad to hear that you’ve tried my 7-step approach and it worked for you. Thanks for reading.
I like how “personalized” this article is, using “letter” as a mode or fashion for articulating and giving out free advice.
What I like more, though, is how honest and concise, as in the instructions are very clear and actionable, the advice is, making it easy to follow and apply. No highfaluting words, just simple strategies to win the game of traffic.
Nice!
I thought about personalizing the post just to give you and my humble readers varieties. I’m happy you gained from reading my post.
Well , i follow the steps that you’ve mentioned mate ! I am quite happy with the results ..these were certainly the best tips that can be given to get traffic to a blog/website . Thanks for sharing these tips …many people would certainly benefit from these tips

You’re welcome Pramod. Your continued success is guaranteed!
You’ve provided some amazing tips to get fast indexing and rankings Michael. This is straight to the point, with helpful high PR sites to back it up. Good job.
Awesome comment Clinton. See you ahead!
Hey Michael, did you know that you’ve just wrapped up the entire SEO strategy for 2013 in a short, well-defined post? This post is unusual because you always write detailed (1000+ words), but a shift at some point wouldn’t hurt. I like the tips and will definitely apply them to my content, link building and writing etc.
Yes, I had to shift my focus this week, to give you a quick tip and limit the number of words to less than 600. I’m glad you benefited from this tips.
I love free traffic, I want to make Google my servant. I go for keywords that are easily ranked.
Good strategy you’ve there, Alice. Thanks for supporting me.
hi Michael
It seems like we both love getting free traffic, and make Google our servant 🙂
I found (through countless trials and errors) that rankings are “easy” to get if you know what you’re doing (I use a similar formula as your 7-step approach, where “Easy to rank” keyword research is a must…)
Keep up the great work my friend, and cannot wait to read your upcoming niche site reports…
Do you plan to reveal any new sites soon or have other “secrets” to let us get a sneak peak into? 🙂
Yes, I love free organic traffic because it relieves me of time to build more niche sites and earn more on the long run. Actually, I’d reveal at least one of my niche sites, but that would be when I’ve finally dominated and sustained my rankings for months – I don’t want competition. I hope you understand?
