Here are the top 4 tips to increase traffic to your websites with free e-book giveaways:
Tip #1:
Why do people give their e-books away for free? Masters in internet marketing always have strong reasons for everything that they do. They give away e-books with a single minded goal(s) behind it, such as to build a list, get new traffic, create sales or to gain credibility.
If you have good products for giveaways, you can potentially partner with more established marketers to 'give away' your product for f'ree to their subscriber list for you.
The trick is to give them good incentives to help you distribute your e-book widely, such as 50% -100% commissions for the backend sales (e.g an upsell on a ebook with videos tutorials). This will ensure that they will get your free e-book distributed as widely as possible.
Tip #2:
You also need to get people that got your free e-book to distribute it widely to their friends for you. One simple incentive is to allow them to insert their own ads or links into your e-book, so that they get to have their own ads listed for free in your e-book. a great form of viral marketing.
Tip #3:
Set up good affiliate training and resources for your affiliates to effectively promote and distribute your e-book widely for you. Good internet marketers do not have much free time on their side, so make sure that you do everything for them before hand, such as preparing ads, sales copy and other pertinent stuffs such as banners. In this way, they do not have to create their own resources for promoting your products.
Tip #4:
The last tip for you is that you can use contests to get people excited about distributing your e-book. E.g. a simple contest is to get people to compete on distributing your e-book to the most email accounts, and you will reward the top 10 guys with say $300 or your other products for free. You will also get a list of contest hungry online visitors that you can tap on in future.
