Could you name some good ways to market a website

[wiiman]

I have a site. www.veganisgreen.com. I'm always in need of innovative ideas on how to market this site to the right audience. Anyone has any tips?

Site looks good, I would look at improving your logo, it just looks a little basic.

In regards to promote your website, see if you can do a link exchange with sites in a similar niche, often you can do this at no cost to yourself as long as you privide a reciprical link.

You can always buy ad space on these sites as well, or look into running a competition to attract new users, maybe a 'recipe' of the month type thing?

You may also want to look into making sure the site is optimised well, one of our team here is a high ranking SEO expert, check out his site here - http://www.tareeinternet.com/

Good luck!

I'm also in need of good SEO for a tech blog that I just started. My projected hits is 500 uniques a day.

Anyways to answer your question wiiman I think it would be a good idea to do some marketing. Also I notice the site is Joomla and one thing that is known about that CMS is that is SEO is not very good. You made a good move by doing search engine friendly URLs though.

Thanks for the great tips. You have given me an idea. I believe one of the ways to keep traffic on my site is to do promotions and I am thinking about starting a health forum on the site that would help with that.

That is a good idea wiiman. In fact I notice a lot of the sites who get a lot of traffic offer incentives to people so they will stick around.

How about marketing it OFFline ... your online people have offline lives ... if you can find where they hang out ... who they're already talking to ... who has these people on a list, you can email / phone / direct mail etc ...

Hi Guys,
I've just discovered a marketing program on how to attract prospects to you instead of you chasing them down.
You can get a free video series which explains the concepts behind the program. Its' very informative and interesting.

Hey wiiman, not sure if you are still needing ways to market your website or if you have done this already but i would check out facebook... starting a health group there is a great idea, or just joining one and promoting your site.

Also might want to look at adding some photos, they really spice up the site and people like looking at tasty meals. But it says "your slogan goes here" up top left, not sure if that is intentional or not...

hi camakos,

Have you actually tried this or are you an affiliate? I am open to anything but am hesitant at fiiling in details just to get more spam.

Hi Wiiman,

Your site is very informative. I have just loaded my own site www.irwfree.com (guys . . be gentle - I'm learning, but would appreciate feedback),

and am interested in swapping links?

Any further ideas out there for promoting sites - with little or no money down?
