Residual traffic is considered by many to be the most coveted form of web traffic a website owner can get. I'm not sure that's anything more productive than developing methods that generate traffic over and over to your site without doing additional work.

While residual traffic methods may seem complicated to the novice if these methods are really broken down, taken one at a time that aren't that complicated. The key is not to overwhelm yourself and start simple. It is a process that requires patience, you will not see results overnight but there is nothing that can beat free repeat traffic.

While there are many residual traffic methods we could focus on I would like to focus on those that will create targeted internet traffic for you. These are site visitors who are already looking for what you have to offer before they even arrive at your site. This will make the chances much higher that the site visitor either purchases what you have to offer or takes the next action you ask them to do on your website. That's what all website owners want right?

Which residual traffic methods create the most targeted internet traffic?

Here are three of my favorite methods for generating targeted prospects over and over again.

1) Blogging

2) Videos

3) Article Marketing

None of these are new strategies but I do recommend for any marketer that you start with blogging. The reason is first it takes some time to have a search engine look at your blog as an authority site. You make that happen a little faster by the amount of time you have your blog in operation and how often you update it. It’s very easy to use other residual traffic methods and tie them into your blog.

For example, video marketing is very powerful. YouTube is the third most popular website in the world and that’s just one video site. But you can tie your videos back to your blog as well. You can post your videos along with your blog posts and even post your articles on your blog.

In this day and age nothing is more important than your internet presence. It’s not possible to operate a business of any kind without some type of presence otherwise you will lack credibility. As soon as someone speaks to you, reads your email or sees you content most of them will go to a search engine and type in your name. The worst thing that can happen is they find nothing. These three residual traffic methods not only bring traffic to your website over and over again without any work they help build your brand.

You get targeted traffic by simply targeting your audience when you are writing your articles or blog posts and when producing your videos. What are the biggest problems your perfect audience faces? What keeps them up at night? You need to get into their head and then from there create information that is helpful to them and solves their problems. This is the most powerful way to produce residual traffic that is powerful and converts easily for you.
