The following four key steps are the most effective ways to advertise and drive traffic to your Internet marketing home based business.

1. Pay per click or PPC advertising as it is referred to is the most effective form of paid advertising. Using a pay per click can be effective for most Internet businesses. Most of the major search engines have some form of PPC system. Google and Google Ad words are the most widely used but MSN and Yahoo both have good PPC programs.

However, Google is still the leading pay per click company in the world and deliver more exposure for your ads. To play it safe do not ignore other search engines such as Yahoo, or MSN who might be able to deliver you visitors for a lesser cost per click.

2. Establishing your keyword list: When using PPC be sure to use keyword phrases and not just single keywords in your keyword list. Long-tailed keywords or keyword phrases are phrases that contain 3 or more words in the phrase. These phrases are a more targeted, or more specific phrase, and will usually provide you with a higher quality visitor. People who type in more specific terms, when searching, are more likely to be potential buyers.

3. How to successfully market your home based Internet business using your keyword list. Your keyword list can provide you with excellent free traffic too. One way you can expand your marketing efforts is to use your targeted keyword phrases and use them in your blog posts and articles. A blog is an excellent way to drive visitors to your website and ads new content on a regular basis. The search engines are constantly spidering the Internet looking for new content. The more new content you provide, the higher the search engines will rank your site. This is a great way to get free organic traffic.
