I am absolutely lost, I've read about all these traffic generating services http:www.searchfeed.com a pay per click service http://www.indexfaster.net a blog and ping service http://www.blastengine.com a submission service bet each will take my hard earned. Can anyone testify to any of these that they are OK. Any help much appreciated..

I cant speak for the services above but I have never seen a service that does the work for you, not effectively anyways. Search Engine Optimization (Search Engine Optimization) is a task that requires lots of work, but the concepts are simple.

Build pages that are relevant to what you are trying to sell. Make page titles that are relevant to page content. Consider using <h1> <h2> <h3> etc. tags in your source, and definitely do not spam or try to negate the search engines algorithms. Don't get blacklisted for trying to cheat, and using a low cost marketing service is probably going to yield zero to little return, and may end up doing more bad, than good.

Not that all low cost services are bad, but do your due diligence on the company and make sure the reviews are positive, and unbiased.

As a great person once said: "If you want the job done right, do it yourself."

...and if you don't have the time or patience for that, make sure the person doing it for you is qualified and has references, and a guarantee would help.

I am impressed with the ammount of information and how so far away I am from knowing anything! Reading this site is an interesting experiment for me, because most of the time, I have no idea of what you guys are taling about! I heard about the traffic generators, but I thought having a website and typing into Google would take you there.... I think my idea for the website will have to wait!

Google is awesome as far as webmaster tools go for free services which actually lead to some results. Create an account for webmaster tools, create a sitemap, upload the sitemap, authenticate that the site is yours, and Google will begin to index the site.

For a sitemap generator you can visit: http://www.auditmypc.com/free-sitemap-generator.asp
