Interact With Small Business Owners Online -- HikeMySite.com

As mentioned in my post about getting website traffic from forums, forums are a great way to bring traffic to your site! HikeMySite.com’s recent discovery of connect.manta.com has helped us bring more traffic to our site by interacting with other small business owners.

Once you create a free username for this site, you can have personal interactions with others. This allows you to give personal replies to customers seeking services that your business provides. Another important use for Manta Connect is the opportunity for links in your posts. Unlike many SEO forums, Manta allows new users to post replies and posts with links. Helping your PageRank while exposing yourself to customers that ACTUALLY need your services is priceless.
