strategies that will help to increase your traffic as well as sales:

1. "Bookmark This Web Site Now"

Tell your visitors to bookmark your web site. They may see your web site listed in their bookmarks and visit again. You should also give then a good reason to bookmark your site.

For example tell them you add new content everyday.
2. "Participate On Our Discussion Board"

Thank you marypiercee -- this is what i've been trying to work out on our real estate website. However, i feel there's always a lot of missing pieces. For instance, I care about code to text ratio, but how does one actually know when the code of ratio for a particular website is high enough to guarantee a good ranking at Google? In fact, I've been out scouring for suggestions to improve the site it's called <a href="http://www.globalpropertyguide.com/">Global Property Guide</a>. If there's anything you might want to contribute to improve the website (critique or anything) please let me know!

2. Delicious Tags and a few others have thier moments

3. Emails with special offers very good... Dont spam them allow them to opt in!

take a look, what do you think?

the million dollar thing on the "how it works" page should give you an idea
