Web 2.0 traffic truly is some of the most powerful traffic you can get today. What makes it so powerful is the fact that thousands of people frequent these sites daily on the hunt for fresh new compelling information that they can take action with.
It used to be that getting traffic to your website was a matter of trying to attract targeted visitors through the search engines, but with the internet market place becoming an interactive medium, things have changed.
With web 2.0 sites like blogs, social bookmarking sites and social networking sites, getting traffic is a simple matter of going to where the traffic is, instead of waiting for it to come to you.
The key to working with web 2.0 sites is to remember that these sites are built around a community based model and the majority of people who frequent these sites are not looking for a sales pitch. In fact if you come into these sites with your sales guns blazing you may very well end up tossed out on your hind parts.
So it is important to become a part of the community and develop your reputation amongst the other members. Marketing in these communities is best done by offering information in the form of free reports that you can easily tie to your autoresponder, with a lead capture page in your profile.
Overall web 2.0 sites can be a tremendous source of highly targeted traffic for you and this strategy works best when complimented with article marketing, blogging, video marketing and forum marketing. Social bookmark as much of your content as you can, outsource it if you have to and watch how fast you can drive traffic to your site.
O.k., here’s a quick tip for you. Write a keyword rich article for your product or website or wherever you want people to go. Post your article to GoArticles.com. Once you’ve posted your article, go back in to view it and social bookmark it with the sites provided at the bottom of the page. After you’ve done that go back to your members page and refresh the page and you’ll see how many times your article was requested. The numbers in the vote box will tell you how many people just visited your site. Now that’s instant traffic.

The blogging phenomenon perfectly compliments the second generation of web services known as Web 2.0 giving users the opportunity to determine the direction of the content. What possibilities exist for bloggers with Web 2.0? First of all, the whole aim of the new web-technology is to facilitate collaboration and sharing between users, on the one hand, and increase the usage rate on the other hand. The next legitimate question that rises here touches on the best ways to attract traffic to blogs with highly relevant and useful content.
First and foremost, we need to say here that with blogs web information is no longer centralized in terms of authority, not to mention that the freedom to use and re-use material is limitless. From a certain point of view blogs become a real market, in which content is the transaction environment. Hence, Web 2.0 traffic tactics mainly gravitate around the optimization of blog articles for advanced search on the search engines. Though it may be very tempting, don’t aim too high from the very beginning, it is almost impossible to get large numbers of visitors from the moment you start blogging.
The key to getting good traffic is perseverance and providing quality content. Content has to be re-freshed every week if not more often; in order to make that an easier task, it is enough to change some of the content, even if you don’t replace it all. With the large number of applications available with Web 2.0, a good idea would be to place a Google search box directly on the site, so that users may find it comfortable to perform further searches directly from your blog page. What’s in it for you? You make the user spend more time on the site and, consequently, you increase the chances of his or her returning to the blog in the future.

If your blog is monetized with adsense or affiliate links, than you are also increasing the opportunity to pull in more sales.
People are now more interested in blogs that have RSS feeds. For increased market share you’re best bet would be to let Internet users know right away that they can subscribe to your content. Initially, graphics were the best means to indicate the presence of an RSS feed; the great advantage now is that you can adjust the very colors used for this attention getting sign to the theme or topic specific to the blog itself. The system is created in such an easy to use way that all you have to do is insert the text and the color scheme and then a graphic pattern is generated immediately.
