You will first need a way to gather your trafic's email address and names so that you can keep in touch with them. One of the best ways to do this is to build an opt in or squeeze page. This will allow them to sign in for your free gift, discount products and specials. Monthly or weekly newsletter subscription is another way to get your traffic to opt in. This is the basic concept of repeated traffic.
 If you’re planning to market your website to receive free traffic, pack your site with good original content that will be of value to your demographic. If you are planning to promote your website by paying for your traffic, make sure that your website is clean, very easy to navigate and visually appealing. I highly recommend that you attempt to capture your visitor’s information if you planning to pay for traffic. It would also be a good idea to capture your visitor’s information if you’re considering marketing your website to receive free traffic. By making sure that your website follows these recommendations, you are off to a great start in your Internet marketing campaign.
