Pay-Per-Click Programs

There is a shortcut to getting traffic to your website. It's not free, but it's definitely worth trying. By signing up with two pay-per-click programs, you can buy visibility with the top six search engines that account for 80-90% of all search activity. You can be featured as a "sponsor" on Google, Yahoo, MSN, AOL, Alta Vista, & Lycos.

You can pick the maximum you will pay when someone clicks to your site, and you can set a daily budget not to be exceeded. This is definitely worth trying out. You will also get invaluable information about what are the most popular relevant search phrases people use.

Here are some examples:
