Hi there is a site of finance, If someone is employed for it's seo, at present his 2000 visitors per month, but its a challenge to his present seo, to increase its visitor 2000 to 10000 per month for 1 year.
I want to know your suggestion , The following seo process or excluding these how much helps you to get traffic at the site:

SMO=(how many visitors your site get from facebook , Twitter and other sites)?
Article submission=?
Forum posting=?
Guest Blogging=?
Classified Ads=?
Blog posting=?
Blog commenting=?
and other Off page techniques?

As per my experience only SMO or PPC can do this. Remaining techniques will take more time but as of now you can start your promotion on different social networking sites and drag traffic from them.

Hi rakkhi sharma,

Replying to forums and message boards is a huge way to get more targeted web traffic, connect with potential customers and brand yourself in the online society. Replying to forums and message boards doesn't charge any money and can be done in your additional time.

How to master forum posting:

-Discern the concept of posting on forums
-Generate a capture page that will ONLY be used for Forum posting
-Sign-up forums that interest you
-Replying to threads and adding to conversations
-Catch another "high traffic" forum to join

I will agree that forum posting can often be helpful in getting new customers!

Generally speaking it's best to post in forums specific to your expertise because:
1) You can more naturally link helpful resources (which you may own yourself)
2) Your signature links will be more interesting to other forum users

Do note that the rules between forums varies, so it's often a good idea to participate a while first getting an impression of the post style and rules in forum.

Traffic is the important thing to consider if you have a online business or just a own site. This will determine the popularity of your site and in order to get tons of traffic, you need to do some effective marketing like social media marketing. Driving massive traffic to your site is really a challenge for each and every one of us.. I think the best tool on this is the use of social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter etc.

If the website have 2000 visitors then it won't take much time to increase the number to your target. You can use these visitors as chain to increase the number. Also organic link building technique may increase the visitors but it need some time depending upon the current position of the website for its targeted key-phrase and also its competitors. One can't give surety without analyzing  the website and its competitors. So do proper research and then commit anything.

the bigger number of visitors you will get from all the social media sites, especially from twitter fb, and social bookmarking sites

Link building is another exercise which I concentrated much through these years. Earlier when I started my website I did not have a single back link to my website. slowly I joined Link building sites like linkmarket etc. and now I am able to muster around 100 back links to my website.

Traffic from social networking sites will be more because mostly people are connected to it and if they like you then they visit on your site.
