Today, I want to tell you a bit about the best techniques for getting traffic to your site in the interests of business lead generation. It's more than just getting people to your site - you need to attract visitors who are in a position to make or influences purchases. This makes traffic driving strategies for business lead generation a whole different ballgame than driving traffic for other purposes.

Using social networking sites can bring in hundreds, even thousands of visitors to your site each month. However, if you're trying to sell high-end products to corporations, it's not so likely that this method is going to get you the traffic that you really want. There is also the difficulty presented by the fact that the Internet is a place which is in a constant state of flux.

Traffic generation methods change almost as often as do the algorithms used by search engines. When Google and other important companies make changes to the way they do things, effective traffic generation strategies can change at a moment's notice. For this reason, we're going to look at traffic generation methods which will keep being effective for the long run. Now, let's have a brief look at the strategies we'll be going into more deeply another time.

Local Search, advertising on the internet in a local market

Pay Per Click Advertising - paying for each visitor that comes to your website via the ad

Search Engine Optimisation (or SEO) - getting your site ranked higher by search engines using keywords

Blogging, or publishing a kind of online journal

Social Networking and Web 2.0 - using social networks like Myspace, Facebook and others to reach out to different communities and induce people to visit your website

Offline Traffic Generation - using traditional media like print, radio, TV and others to get visitors to your website

Name Capture and Follow-up, this is getting the details of people on your website and then following up with them on a sequential basis to get them coming back again and again

I'll tell you about some of the ways of using these methods which can make the difference between lackluster and amazing performance. Local Search is where we'll begin.

Local search is web based advertising targeted towards people in your area. If your business has historically done well with the Yellow Pages, this can be a great way to get traffic to your site.

One of the best is Google Local. It's basically one part of Google Adwords and what it allows you to do is advertise on local keywords such as "pest control Melbourne", and when someone searches for that type of term, a map will actually appear in Google with various drawing pins on the map that lead to your address, your website and your services.

One of the things with local search is that in Google, especially, it's extremely prominent. The local result is much more prominent than the normal results, so if you do advertise in a local area, I recommend that you research and get into local search on Google.

There are of course other local search services. Among these are City Search, True Local and Yellow Pages Online. Make sure to look into the conversion rates and traffic generation made possible by these service to make sure you are making good use of your advertising budget.
