will happen naturally as you work on other traffic methods such as article marketing. As soon as a link to your website is found online (usually coming from another website), search engines will then "crawl" or in other words, visit your website and all of the pages on your site and you'll be indexed within the search engine. FFA (Free-For-All) Websites Free-for-all websites are exactly what they sound like. A website where you can add your own link free. At first, it sounds good in theory, after all who wouldn't like a bunch of free links coming to their site? But these are usually pages full of spam-related links that the search engines don't consider important in the least bit. The reason behind this is that no real people other than those who have websites themselves visit these kinds of websites. Additionally, oftentimes these sites are nothing more than "email harvesters". This means that the email you use to submit your own site will most likely end up being spammed continuously. And if that weren't enough, Google themselves states in their documentation that you should stay away from FFA websites. If you do for some reason, decide to use an FFA website, do yourself a favor and use a "throwaway" email address. This is because your email will likely be spammed and the last thing that you want is to do provide your actual business email address to one of these sites. You'll have a heck of a time getting rid of all of the nonsense messages that come your way. This isn't a comprehensive list by any means but when you talk about the "big three" most talked about methods used online to get website traffic, these are the ones that tend to come up quite often and are the ones that should be avoided.
