Free traffic to dropshipping store - hardest task

[handsomeone]

Hi everyone, I have a dropshipping store from aliexpress with the niche of wristwatches.
I'm having very hard time driving traffic to my website, and I always think that people had already seen my products else where (since it's on aliexpress). How do you drive free traffic, not paid with facebook ads for now anyway, to a dropshipping store like that?
TY

I have learned that social media is the best free traffic (Instagram, Pinterest, twitter), but like you said there is a big chance customers have already seen the same product.
You could also try posting on facebook groups with a lot of members, although not all fb group will allow this.

1.) Create a Facebook page for your business, join FB groups related to your niche and share posts from your facebook page (don't hard-sell)
2.) Create an Instagram account for your business (selling account) put a link in bio, eye-catching description + right hashtags
You get the point repeat that with Twitter and Youtube, those are 4 huge traffic sources, just open your mind bro.
*Facebook is the easiest from my experience
It is pretty hard to start with free traffic, but it is doable, keep grinding.
Good luck.

Try to get traffic from IG.

It's the best free traffic source IMO.

Instagram is good for getting free traffic. (If you're not botting, only running one acc)

If you can get 10 accounts following 400 people a day with a link to your store on your profile you'd probably be able to make some decent sales.

400 x 10 = 4000 people followed a day, let's just say 0.075% of those people you followed actually buy something from your store, that's 3 orders!

If you're profiting an average of $10 USD per order, that will be $30 USD a day.

Of course this isn't "free traffic" though, you'd need to purchase or make your own Instagram accounts and buy proxies for them as well as a bot. ($30 USD a month-ish)

Thanks for the reply!
I have a Facebook page and I tried that, but it seems that the groups that accept the posts aren't really interested and most times someone comment with "garbage, you can get it on aliexpress or amazon".

Obviously wrong groups.
My number one recommendation for you would be to change your niche, watches, wristwatches, any watches are sold resold and oversold

Isn't everything resold and oversold already from aliexpress?

off course, but you can do better than wristwatches

Pinterest is great. Give it a try.

Find big accounts in your niche. There's loads of big fashion accounts, then simply see who is following/liking/commenting those accounts

there ppl on here that only post in the groups of fb and earn huge cash with many fb accounts and fresh proxies .

self promotting with comments works very well.

use all the free web 2.0 websites and comment on them in your niche.

That's great! Should I make a business page or just a normal account?

The problem is people on this niche know too much the industry and they know the products from aliexpress.

Pinterest is your way to go. Check pinterest section for some great methods of growing your account and driving traffic. Pinterest comprises of mostly buyer's traffic so it will convert well.

should the link in the instagram profile be cloaked?

Nah, thanks man I'm not into coaching services.

Put social media to correct use, they can be the best source of traffic. Also, focus on SEO.
