How to get
free traffic by giving away a free ebook
© 2003 By Patric Chan
This may come as a surprise. Or not.
Depending on how much knowledge and experience you
have with internet marketing.
I'm sharing this tip with you because I have proof of
it's success. This strategy has been used for ages by
internet marketers. The strategy is to offer freebies
especially a free ebook to get traffic to your site. I've
been enjoying a healthy amount of traffic each day
with this strategy.
Here's an idea that I use. I
have another webpage that focuses on self
improvement topics at
http://www.esuccessmastery.com
Feel free to subscribe to that too if you have a
desire to improve your life through self
improvement.
Ok. Let's go back to the strategy. I offer a
free ebook, Success Quotes from the
webpage, essuccessmastery.com. To date,
I've received thousands of downloads for
the ebook and generated traffic to
esuccessmastery.com from the link in that
ebook.
Another successful free ebook that I've
completed recently is 'Best Articles Ever
Written' that I've worked on with 11 other
successful marketers like Willie Crawford,
Steve Shaw, Harvey Segal, John Delavera
and so on. Visit

What's weird is, there are so many
people using this
strategy but have failed to achieve any successful
results. Why?
Here are 5 tips in order for you to achieve successful
'viral
marketing' by offering a free ebook:
1.Your ebook MUST be valuable
Here's a rule of thumb. Your ebook MUST have value to the
readers. That means there MUST be something they can learn
or gain from it. Common sense will tell you, if the book is
full of garbage, what makes them want to share it with their
friends?
Preferably, before you give away the book, think of this
first
- If you sell it for any price, will there be a buyer? If
your answer is yes, you have a winner. :)
2. It MUST not be boring
This sounds almost the same as first tip. But it's
different. Sounds ironic right? Lol
Imagine this. It's free. Most likely, it's not appreciated
as much as a paid book. So, the way you write the
ebook and compile it, it MUST have a 'flow' to make it
interesting to read or it'll end up in the recycle
bin.

3. Get other people to help by distributing it
If you want it to spread fast, you need other guys with big
lists to help you promote your free ebook. If you do it by
yourself, it's going to take a heck of a long period of time
to spread it unless you are like #1 in search engine
ranking.
The best place to get the list of people who have existing
subscribers. You can use ezine directories.
4. There should not be too many affiliate links
If your links sincerely want to give the readers
convenience to find more information or resources, that
will be ok. But don't promote everything under the sun.
Too many affiliate links will turn off any readers as it
will look obvious you are trying to earn back end sales from
affiliate programs. Nobody likes to be sold to. :)
5. Make your book brandable
I don't think there is such word as brandable in the
dictionary. But brandable to my understanding means
that the reader can brand your ebook with their own
name, url or affiliate link in that ebook. THIS TIP IS
THE MOST IMPORTANT. If you download my ebook above,
you'll see that I offer them the ability to brand it with
their own link. It just make sense right?
People will like to give away your ebook if they can also
get free traffic or back end sales.
You might already be giving away a free ebook at this
moment. But apply those 5 tips above, and your ebook
will spread like wildfire.
If you don't have a free ebook to give away, what are you
waiting for?
