I've got three personal-project sites. Of the three, only one is drawing consistantly from the search engines. The other two just aren't seeing the traffic. Over the last few months, I haven't actively promoted any of the three. In that regard, I can see which are getting traffic and which are not. Of the three, I'm looking at these two sites. One I'll keep, the other I'll close... http://www.debtscams.com (pr 0): Not getting but 3 or 4 visits per week. However, it seems like the content would pull people - but what do I know? http://www.debt-reduction-solution.com (pr 3): Sees a wee bit of traffic but with that catagory, the adsense money can be good if I can just get people to the site. So which do I let go? Do I take the content from the first and move it to the second site because it's related? debtscams.com seems like such a great domain name - short, easy to spell, niche-y. But as I said, "ain't no one visiting da site." I have been keeping adsense and affil links off of debtscams hoping as a new-ish site, that would help with the sandboxing...now I'm wondering if the site just isn't good enough to pull traffic. ideas?
general rules apply to promote site , did you work on your websites ? keep writing articles , or make blogs write articles on blogs and link your websites to them ..posting in forums disucssing debt may help (in sigs or according to forum rules) ? have you submitted to link directories ? Tried link excgange ? etc etc
Why not use the one with traffic to promote the one without? Add a section in your main site that says "Beware of scams" or something and link to the other site. Also, I had never heard the term "debt scams" and I doubt many people search it, so maybe using more "financial scams" or "protect against scams", around your text will give you a better PR.
thanks, I changed my forum link in my menu (never did get that started) to point to the site with "protect against scams".
