BOOST SHOPPING TRAFFIC WITH COUPON CODE OFFERS

Small retailers and etailers, boost your website traffic by submitting coupon codes for discounts to coupon code directory sites that list current shopping deals. It is FREE to submit to these sites, and you don't have to register or do reciprocal links. This is an interesting opportunity, because when you have shoppers serious enough to be looking for deals, you have shoppers ready to buy. Capture that sale!

RETAILMENOT.COM http://www.retailmenot.com/submit.php This site has a staggering 5 MILLION + visitors each month browsing over 150,000 deals - do I really need to say more? Who wouldn't want a piece of over 5 million shoppers? Think of a deal, and post, post, post! Free shipping, 25% off storewide, etc. Whatever your ecommerce configuration can handle. Keep them current and make them worthwhile. Be sure to use an expiration date so it automatically ends the offer, otherwise remove a deal by emailing your coupon info to: remove@retailmenot.com . If you aren't selling online yet you can submit printable coupons for in-store use by your local shoppers. The benefit here is that you can capture web traffic intent on making a purchase without having to offer or post the coupon code on your own website... Meaning, you don't have to let your regular traffic who have already found you in on the discount. Post a good amount of store information besides the offer to the discount description field, it doesn't seem to have a charachter limit. Some great descriptive copy is sure to entice shoppers to click your link.

NAUGHTYCODES.COM http://www.retailmenot.com/submit.php A much smaller site with about 80K-100K visitors each month browsing deals. Also can take some descriptive copy to the posting.
