Dear
Traffic Seeker,
My name is Vincent Newton. I've been marketing online since 2005
and have been fortunate enough to have generated thousands of
dollars solely from the internet.
I've
always had a passion for entrepreneurship and making money online.
I always knew that the internet was the fastest way to make huge
profits.
Unfortunately, I failed to realize that generating traffic is
the main ingredient for making money online.
Let
Me Tell You A Quick Story...
When
I started online, way back in the 2005, I owned a computer related
website called Pc King Computers. At that time, I did not know
about web design, ftp, or internet marketing. I guess you can
say, I was clueless.
I ended up hiring a small website development company from Seattle
who charged me $400.00USD to build the site.
In Canadian funds, that worked out to roughly $500.00, which for
me, was a lot of money.
One week later, everything was finished - I had my own online
business. I can remember showing the site to my friend who told
me "Wow, your logo looks really good...very professional."
Needless to say, I was very proud of myself and very anxious to
start making money online.
I
put ALOT of work into getting everything set
up and ready to take orders. I can remember opening accounts with
the two major supply companies, setting up my merchant account,
and researching my competitors. I spent countless hours making
sure everything was perfect.
Build
It And They Will Come
Can
you keep a secret?
Back in 2005, I suffered from the "build it and they
will come" mentality.
I
did not fully understand the complex world of internet marketing.
I did not comprehend the vastness of the internet. I failed to
realize that without a full-fledged marketing plan my website
may as well be invisible!
I'll
Never Forget How I Felt
After
a few weeks of being online, I quickly realized that nobody was
visiting my site. I called dozens of friends, encouraging them
to spread the word but that didn't improve the situation.
All that time and energy, and not a single sale.
I was horrified and felt awful.
You
see, it got to a point where I needed to make a change and start
making money online. I could not afford to fail a second time.
I spent countless hours on marketing sites and forums, scouring
for tips and tricks. Eventually I started to understand what I
was lacking - Targeted Traffic.
In order to succeed online, you must have a steady flow of targeted
traffic. It made perfect sense. I immediately began asking myself,
how can I generate targeted traffic without spending a fortune?
Around this time, I started receiving emails from people who had
joined a website called Facebook™. In fact, these emails
were not coming from strangers. Instead, they
were coming from people that I knew. Each message encouraged me
to visit this website.
Your
Friend Kevin Has Invited You To Join Facebook™
I
can remember saying to myself "If Kevin joined Facebook™,
maybe I should to?" It doesn't hurt to visit. No harm in
doing that? Besides, Kevin is somebody who I really respect and
I've known him since high school. We both played on the junior
boys basketball team. If he signed up with Facebook™, it
must a be cool website.
As a result, I decided to visit this website, by clicking the
link contained within the invite message.
How
Do People Discover New Websites?
"A
recent survey found that more than half (53%) of Internet
users had visited websites referred by friends or family
members in the previous 30 days."

Once
I Joined, That's When It Hit Me
Let me explain
Aside from having a great layout, the ability to keep tabs on
friends, and amazing search capabilities.
Facebook™ is utilizing one of the most powerful viral marketing
strategies ever conceived.
Once
my account was created, I immediately clicked on the
friends tab. A nifty drop-down menu appeared with several
options including - Invite Friends.
Once clicked, I was taken to a page that allowed me to Import
Email Addresses from my Yahoo, Hotmail, AOL, Gmail or MSN address
book.
I
was also greeted with the following message:
"Enter your email login details...Facebook
will securely import your contacts from your address book."
With
a few clicks of my mouse, I was able to import and invite all
of my contacts.
Below is an actual screen shot of my hotmail contacts.

I
simply inserted my email address and password and instantly all
my Hotmail contacts appeared before me. With one click of the
mouse, I was able to invite all my contacts to join Facebook ™
I
quickly realized the potential of this application and decided
to create the most sophisticated viral marketing tool on the market.
Increase Traffic To Your Website

This graph illustrates how many visitors I received during a 21
day period. According to Goggle Analytics my website received
5120 unique visitors. That works out to 241 visitors per day!
I created a new website to monitor the traffic. Traffic sent to
that domain was 100% FREE and was generated
using Friend Inviter.
