Day 1

Subject: [firstname]: Thanks for signing up!

Dear [firstname],

Thanks for signing up to this short e-course on generating traffic for your website.  Over the coming days I'm going to be sending you a LOT of information.  Be sure to check your inbox every day and to mark my messages as “important”.  It's also a good idea to set some time aside each day to read my messages and act on the information they contain.

Specifically, we're going to talk about: 

* The difference between “free” and “paid” traffic and the pros and cons of each.  We'll also cover some of the more popular free and paid-for methods.
* I'll explain why it's crucial that you build a mailing list, and how you can use it for recurring traffic.
* Why you should be using social media to drive traffic to your site.
* And a whole lot more besides!

Of course, if you want to get a head start on all this, I've put together a no-holes-barred traffic generation handbook that covers everything in detail.  You can find out all about it here: [link to sales page].

It's a simple fact of Internet marketing… 

No matter how good your website is, without enough traffic it will fail. It doesn't matter how compelling your offer is, if your stats counter is like Tombstone before the outlaws ride in, you are just wasting your time and money putting the website up in the first place.

The good news is (as you'll discover in the coming days) there are so many different ways of generating traffic now, you're bound to find at least one that does the job for you.  Hold on to your hat; you're in for quite a ride!

Sincerely,

[Your Name]

PS. Is free traffic really free?  Is all paid for traffic expensive? I'll explain all tomorrow; be sure to check your inbox then.
