    i have a penny auction site taht is a little different than others in that it is a pay to enter the auction site, not a pay-per bid site, so people can limit their losses but still get good deals on auctions. ive tried a few small ways of getting it off the ground and have some traffic but need to get some real revenue rolling in, and trying to figure out the best way to bring in users. i hvae testimonials of cards ive sent out as well as a chatbox for people to talk but just need to figure out the best way to get a good market in. gonna write some articles soon, but adwords are too expensive and dont convert well enough so im looking to target homemakers and SAHM types. any help is appreciated!

    They have to pay, just to enter?

    Don't ya think that is part of your problem right there?

    considering the gift cards go for 10-15 dollars for a $50 gift card, thats how it works. most sites like swoopo charge for every single bid for items. anyways, back on topic.
