I have a super unique website idea. I really can't share it with you because it is so simple that if I explained it someone would immediately snatch it up. But this niche is "games". But the best way to make it profitable is to get traffic (like most websites). Now I know using free techniques like TEs and other simple things like SU, Digg, Reddit, I could get a pretty good flow of traffic, but I want an EXPLOSION, and therefore I will need to invest some cash first. Some ideas I have already thought of: PayPerPost SEO & Organic Traffic - The domain name will be a three 3 keywork rich name.... the SERPs for the keywords (Results 1 - 10 of about 151,000) and the first 2 results are youtube vids, and the 3rd is a forum thread. The forum thread is PR 0, but the forums homepage is pr 5. Link Building - Using payperpost and blog commenting. Possibly using WideCircles as an outsourcing for the blog commenting. Buy all domain extensions of my name (.com, .net, .org, .us, .info, etc). Purchase Stumbles/Digg from a website like StumbleUdon. Purchase ads from StumbleUpon or a cheap CPM company such as Adbrite. Manual Bookmarking services or directory submission. Xrumer service - such as this Long-tail keywords I can't think of much else... Can I get some comments on what you have used and what works? And whats a waste of money? Thanks in advanced! I promise to give rep for valuable replies! Sincerely, rnc505
Get a good directory submitter and blog commentor. They provide a bunch of traffic in a relatively short period of time.
Best thing for an explosion (as opposed to a steady increase) is via front paging on a social bookmarking site. (Digg, Reddit, etc.) I doubt you'll really need to focus on long tails, considering the top 2 or 3 should be fairly weak to knock off for your main keywords. Have you checked to make sure that your keywords are actually what's searched for??
As my good friend mentioned above, Social Bookmarking is the way to go Stumble networks is one of the best ways to develop traffic these days
Okay lets put it this way. The domain name is 3 words long the first word is 8 letters, 2nd word is 4 letters and 3rd word is 7 letters.... Kind of long but it will work. The first 2 words alone (so "first second" in google of "firstsecondthird.com") has over 1.5 million searches a month. and the "first second" keyword search has 8 mill competition. when searching "first second third" there is 150,000 competition and no recorded searches in keyword tool and my website will be firstsecondthird.com. So while I'm on the right track for 66% of my domain name, the last 33% will need help. But because I plan on making a huge buzz about it via like PayPerPost, etc, I'd hope I'd start to spur searches for it. for example. ebay has over 150 million searches as month on google. before they were founded i doubt a single person every typed in eBay. So I gotta make a huge buzz and I'm hoping that the huge buzz will lay the SEO groundwork needed to keep it going. Thanks, rnc505
I like your idea my friend, could be implemented in something else i'm considering for a Niche marketing program
That makes sense; you're trying to establish your domain name as a searchable, recognizable brand-name. I really don't think that it's something that will happen in the "explosion" that you want, unless it truly is a revolutionary idea. If I were you, I'd go make an account on Digg, and create yourself a nice network of friends, post some submissions, some comments... spend time establishing that account, then (eventually) post your site link so that you've actually got a chance of it hitting the FP.
