There are many surefire ways to increase traffic to a targeted website. And the bottom line to making money from that website is to get both a lot of traffic and interested traffic.
Websites serve many purposes from advertising products or services for sale to being a site providing information. Many of these also host affiliate ads and other promotions.

- An effective way to increase traffic is to trade links with sites that are similar in message or content. You can do this by communicating with the owners or managers of other sites.
You can also take advantage of link trading through involvement with services that exchange links. This typically won't cost anything but demands that some space is given to the exchange site for their link.
- A very important step to not overlook when attempting to drive traffic to the site is by making sure your site's content is constantly and consistently updated. Those who do this reguarly, and keep the content interesting and creative, have a much better chance at increasing traffic than do those who drop the ball here.
