This is a very simple way of generating traffic, optins and sales… FAST and FREE, for a little effort.

I wanted to test this simple method from the perspective of someone marketing with no current list.

That means you can use this immediately even if you have no list, no affiliates, no products and no online friends… SO NO EXCUSES!

In my quick testing of this I was able to generate 8,483 unique visitors, 10,202 raw visitors, 101 optins, 75 sales and $2,356.80 in extra cash.

While the visitor-to-optin ratio is disappointingly low, the part of this test that I like most is the extraordinary optins-to-sales conversion.

Out of 101 optins, 75 of them converted into buyers, for $2,356.80 in revenue… that’s right around a 75% sales conversion!

If you want more targeted traffic, then consider using press releases as a solid way of attracting more traffic fast.

However, for a press release to work properly, you must know how to write a press release.

I think there are two ways to write a press release.

1. Write a press release for search engine optimization.
2. Write a press release for media placement optimization.

I also think there are three primary outcomes for writing a press release.

1. Search engine positioning (1st page of Google, MSN, etc)
2. Backlinks (Build authority sites and Page Rank)
3. Media placement (Get interviews in print or on radio and TV, secure speaking gigs, etc)

Traffic is not the real purpose of writing a press release in my opinion, it’s actually a reward and effect for effectively doing one or all of the above three.

As a result of that traffic, combined with a strong offer you can accelerate your list building while significantly increasing your sales and income.

The reason many people don’t get good results from press releases is because they rush to the press release distribution phase with badly written press release.

Rushing to the press release distribution phase with a garbage press release is a recipe for disaster and is nothing more than waste of your resources.
