    Hey Guys,
    So how would you start to market a Pharmacy website? And no spamming isn't an option.

    Are you selling medication OR is this information about pharmacy? They both have different methods of marketing.

    Selling medication with some product information on page. This website is only targeted towards U.S. consumers and is shipped within the U.S. to customers. I was considering creating a secondary information only website which points back to the medication website.

    For quality visitors, I would suggest using adwords for starters.

    Email marketing isn't great for this niche.. so it's not worth the investment.

    Adwords has some explicit rules when it comes to pharmacies advertising on that network. I wonder which other quality PPC networks exist out there that allow Pharmacy advertising.

    yeah if you got specific customer who loking for specific products, adwords or other PPC campaing is what you needed. also try some site advertising on pharmacy relevant site.

    dont try to do email marketing because i dont think nowadays people will open an email about pharmacy. (too many spam around)

    All you see in you spam email folder and spam directory submissions and spam blog comments.... is pharmaceuticals. Stick to marketing techniques that don't annoy anyone.

    This is a good idea, however you need to look into the pharmacy site carefully making sure it's legitimate for your business's sake.

    if you want to have quick traffic to your site, you can use adwords and the other ppc program but if you are intrested traffic from search engines, you must start building backlinks and making seo to your site
