It’s Wednesday and that means it’s time to put on our Traffic Hats!

Traffic is the life blood of your business. In order to build a thriving online business it’s essential that you get eyes on your site! Today’s traffic tip is on FACEBOOK.

Facebook is like MySpace in a lot of ways, though there are many differences as well.

You can make friends with this site.

You can update people with your blog entries.

You can use the updates section to talk about changes you’ve made to your website.

You can join networking groups that are related to the niche topic you’re focusing on.

You can place a link to your site and company in your profile so that as many targeted people (the friend’s you’ve selected) as possible can view it.

Just like with MySpace, you want to interact with people in order to get more traffic and make connections. Your Facebook visitors will enjoy seeing what you have to offer, and you’ll get more traffic.

Facebook also has an array of add-ons available that have been developed by independent programmers. These offer a way to interact with prospective customers and visitors to get them even more interested and show them what you have to offer.

For example, you can send your Facebook friends small digital gifts, which may make them more likely to visit your site and eventually become a customer.

Remember action is everything! So ask yourself how you can implement this traffic tip into your business today in order to start driving targeted traffic back to YOUR web site.

Make it a great day!
