How can I market my website

    Here it is:

    www.funnytestanswers.blogspot.com

    As of now, I'm using Reddit, Digg, Twitter, Stumbleupon, and another forum to promote my website.

    I'm also pinging my posts.

    How else can I market my site? It consists mostly of pictures. I can only write a few sentences to describe each picture. I try to include "funny test answers" in most of my descriptions so that people will find my website when they type in "funny test answers" in google.

    Also, I have a lot of followers in Twitter. How can I spread the word to them about my site?

    Develop Anchor Text so you can compete with those keywords in the search engines. Create lots of back links, tell your friends, post in forums and have the link in your signature, make flyers, do link exchanges....etc

    By way of article marketing... Press Releases of your site. Anchor Text for your signatures.

    You might want to try leaving blog comments on blogs in the same niche too. Target blogs with active comments so that people will notice your link and visit your website too.

    Anchor text is hyperlink to your website with some content

    example:
    <a href="your website URL"> Some text </a>

    yahoo answers will help to drive some traffic.

    You also can use and do bookmark to other free sites in order to promote your site. And provide most common related search key words or tags. If you want to get the free sites (social bookmarking or web directory) i will show you.

    Submit the rss feed of your blog to directories. Make technorati tags too. That'll boost your traffic.

    Work on seo you may want to try commenting on other blogs within your niche. Also submit to blog directories and burn a feed so when you post in forums your latest blog will be next to your name. To get a rss feed you can use www.feedburner.com

    Build some backlinks up, not just social networking links.
    Get some directory submissions done, article submissions, and get ppl to blog about your site.
    Social networking is good for short term traffic, but you must have links for long term traffic. :)

    Thanks. I guess I'll get directory and blog submissions done. I'll also pay people for directory submissions in the services subforum.

    I don't see how I can do article submissions when my site mainly consists of pictures.

    I can pay people to blog about my site though.

    I see that you have attached your web address to the pictures, which is good. It may be worth passing these round on facebook. If you are not a member, then join and build up you friends. When you pass these on, they may be passed around again. The best ones may even go viral - with your web address attached to them. It could be great free exposure!
