Hi there! I need an advice on promoting a directory of gyms, yoga/martial arts/baseball, etc classes. so.. I am thinking of article marketing and posting on niche forums... 1) can anyone suggest me what articles to write? just give me some ideas what it could be about? 2) where to publish them? 3) are there any other ways to promote it that may be good in my case? Thank you very much
I can offer you a couple guest blog posts on my sites if they are well written in conversational, American English. PM me if you want to discuss in more detail.
Forums are very potential for promoting your services. Just create backlinks with pages which are in the same niche. Guest post is also very good for getting some potential visitors.
Ok. this is a a good idea. How about a review of existing gyms in different cities? Or tips on choosing a gym? Would it be Ok? Will I be able to add a link to my site into an article like that? OK, What will be my posts about?
You could promote an online gyms directory by finding blogs related to online gyms, and leaving a comment on them, ensure that the comments adds value or else they might be removed
People generally don't travel to use gyms, they go to ones that are close to them, so you could create localised content - the best gyms in town a for example. Also try to find a different angle - like does a certain gym have classes that others don't?
Lots of quality content will help in the SEO. I did this for a gym I used to work for and the rankings skyrocketed.
