This question reigns supreme 
all over the net. 
But the answer may be 
simpler than you think. 
Here are a few tips to 
optimizing your content 
to bring you hits.
 
Flash content including 
music, movies and animation 
gets crawled better by 
certain search engines like 
Google. Web pages with flash 
files spider as effectively, 
if not more so, as regular 
html. All you need to do is 
add a banner or ad with flash. 
Better yet when practical use 
a flash intro. 
 
SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is the next 
best thing when you can't afford flash. You can 
add keywords to your website. The key here is 
to sprinkle those keywords throughout your 
website abundantly. But keep usage to 2 or 3 
times per page. If you have 8% or less keyword
saturation throughout your pages you'll come up 
in searches better. 
 
The reason is search engines look for "keyword 
stuffing" and disregard sites that look like 
they employ this method of SEO. Add links to 
other websites or other products on 
your website sparingly using your keywords.
 
Buy ad space from search engines. Microsoft, 
Google, and AskJeeves all allow you to advertise 
yourself on their search engines for a fee. This
is called pay-per-click. 
 
Depending on who hosts your web account they 
may offer search engine submission for free. 
There are sites that let you submit your 
website in bulk as well. Just do a search. 
A popular site for search engine submission 
is Add Me. 
 
In the end the best way to go is what your pocket 
can afford. Read up for the best web marketing 
strategies. Dynamic content never hurts when 
putting together a website just don't overdo it. 
Lastly, be sure to use 5 or less keywords in 
your meta tags.

I'm always looking for new ways to bring traffic to my site.

Excellent topic!

I have a question, though? How do I cash in my revenue once I have started making money from hubpages? Do you know?

Hi Dutch84, unfortunately I have no idea. Perhaps the answer may be in the help or FAQ section of this site.
