Jewelry Display Ideas is my Authority Site Center website that gets a swarm of traffic from my Squidoo lenses every day. The most popular post, Tutorial for a No-Sew Ribbon Jewelry Pouch has also been submitted to and voted for on Netscape.

Another article, How to Start a Jewelry Business (on a separate website), also receives a lot of traffic from being submitted and voted up on Netscape.

Squidoo Traffic Power Review

Rena is also the Queen of Squidoo, in case you didn’t know!

With this one Web 2.0 strategy guide for just one of the popular 2.0 sites I have watched members of ASC bring down some serious traffic and increase their search engine rankings.

Rena rocks for putting this guide together!

She has a couple more just like it at ASC.

My Blog Log has been one of my favourite sites that I have found since I found FTR. The communities in there are great and the stats reports are awesome. It has only been a few days but from MyBlogLog.com I have been getting close to 100 views a day - I can’t wait to see what happens when I get running at full speed!

Outdoor Living Authority is my Authority Site Center site. I have only been postng to it for 7 weeks but it is getting great traffic thanks to ASC and the Web 2.0 strategies.

My biggest day was after submitting 10 Tips for Small Front Yard Design to various Web 2.0 sites - 1800 visitors.

Traffic came mainly from Netscape and StumbleUpon, with a surprising amount from Reddit. I still get a very steady stream of visitors (600-800) to that post from StumbleUpon.

I really love browsing so I go through MyBlogLog a lot and get people to link exchange or guest post on my blogs. That way you don’t just go in an comment spam, you actually network — that’s what Web 2.0 is really about isn’t it?

So far my favorite web 2.0 tactic is Stumble! To think I have not even invested in purchacing vistors to come. To date they have brought me over 200 vistors and my site is still farely young. Today I am trying some of the other sites out with this new list I posted and will get back to see what is the best web 2.0 marketing tool.

This may not be considered a Web 2.0 tactic, but creating a WordPress blog alone has increased my traffic by 10-fold.

Also, landing on the front page of PlugIM brought me from #9 to #4 on page 1 of Google for my keywords.
