Hey, does anyone here have any good ideas when it comes to web site promotion? I've submitted my site to a few search engines, though it takes a few months if you don't pay. I've also told most of the people I know - but still not enough traffic dammit! Any ideas?  www.cmvisuals.co.uk |

A few things that i do to promote Shenmue-UK and some of my other sites: Top Siteswww.shenmuetop50.tk/Thats a topsite, that particular one is a shenmue one which shenmue-Uk is in but there are many more. Webringsp.webring.com/hub?ring=segawebring1Thats a typical webring, the webring code go's on all the sites and people navigate betweeen peoples sites using them. that one is mine and you can see the code at the bottom of this page. Doorwayswww.geocities.com/shenmueukforums/index.htmlthats a doorway. you can use it to advertise your site, you can submit it into loads of Webrings without making your actual site being made full of the webring code (which would make it look crap) also if you make one on geocities you can promote it in the yahoo member pages directory as i have done: pages.yahoo.com/nhp/games/computer___video_games/genres/adventure/titles/shenmue/Free Multiple search engine submissionwww.addme.com/Go there to have your site submitted to about 15 search engines for free! ive done it a few times on all my sites! Paid search engine submissionwww.submitnet.net/login.aspThis tool submits your site to the top search engines, it takes time but its worth it. it does cost you money but you can do a free 3 month trial. GameFaqswww.gamefaqs.comYes thats right, go over to gamefaqs, post a topic about your site/forum in the most apropiate board and you get lots of hits out of it simply because gamefaqs gets thousands of hits a day. i have done it many times. ForumsGo to forums and make a topic telling people about your site. Well thats all the tips i got, hope they were helpful. |
