In marketing we’re always looking for ways to get more traffic to our sites.  By the way even if you’re not doing business on the internet, you should definitely have a site that leads people to your store or a way to get in touch with you, whatever business you’re in.

I just thought of an effortless way to do this.

I got a package from Amazon.com recently, and I never really paid attention to the fact that they have their domain name on the package.  So I thought, why not get some labels with your site name on it and put it on everything you mail out.  How many people that touch that piece of mail would actually see it.  And if you mail out packages for customers and letters, then potentially you could have thousands of people that see your domain name.

Now the other trick is to get them to notice it.  You can’t really control that, but it would make sense to have an easy to remember domain name, and one that creates curiosity. 

This is just an example, but if you had a domain name such as GetRichToday, that would definitely create a lot of curiosity.  You could create a short, simple, curiosity provoking or funny (which is usually easy to remember) domain name, and have it redirected to your site, or to an affiliate site you’re promoting.  All you’re trying to do is get more traffic.

When you set your mind on an objective, such as how to get more traffic to my site, or how to get more people to notice my advertising, you start seeing things that you wouldn’t have otherwise.
