    Hello everyone I want to market a new website of mine... I want to start a 100% free webmaster marketplace. My site is www.webmarketpost.com. Any ideas of how I can market this website without spending a lot of money?

    Here's what I would do if I were you: I'd go to Digital Point (filled with webmasters), and then pretend I wanted advice on how to market the website.

    That way the webmasters would click on my site.

    It could work ;)

    uh well i really do need a way to market it... I mean I could buy advertising on a bunch of webmaster sites but that would cost tons of money...

    My first idea is to get a bunch of links... yet if there are no ads on the site then no webmasters would want to use it... So lexiseek im not sure if you are taking me seriously or not but o well lol

    First I would pay some members for posting ads just like forum posting then I would start link building and seo optimizing .

    You could pay people to post their services on your website at first... this would at least give you a jump start on the content which seems to be severely lacking right now. Heck, I want to sell a few links on a PR4 site I have, i'd post it there for a mere 5 cents... but otherwise with no one even viewing the website... it doesn't seem to be worthwhile to be honest. :(

    If you want webmasters to view your offer and want to try something new, check out my signature for how to get quality traffic. Most of my visitors are webmasters, and you can use the site for free.

    Basically I show you how to to spend 20 minutes creating a short infomercial selling the benefits of your website, you then stick it on our playlist and get it watched by tons of webmasters and business owners (your target market)

    Let me know what you think.

    Not sure if this will work as you will probably not get any replies from the offers that you have, but what about using some other websites content thorugh the use of their RSS feeds.

    If you would not want to do this, then the best way would to get people that genuinely want to this their services on your site and then you will either pay them or give them some credit back.

    yes LeadsByVideo.com - highest quality traffic you can get. It's designed for those who want quality not quantity. Eg you want your visitors to be the type that understand your service/product, purchase from you and return often.
