How Should I Market My Website?

Discussion in 'General Marketing' started by gregdavidson, Sep 4, 2012.

    My website is in my signature. I wasn't thinking about focusing primarily on people who are interested in e-commerce. I just launched the website off today so I'm still at the drawing board. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    For me the theme and style of landing page is not professional. It's not to say that some people view it differently but to me I never read or push forward with the style of landing page you have used.
    i enjoy a video to watch and some proof before reading further information and the small print before making a purchase

    The site looks a bit unprofessional, but that doesn't mean you can't market it. Simply start with SEO and SEM. Find out what works best for you.. and of course, don't forget to test, test and test.

    Is the site the one in your signature 'wholesale resources'? If so, then I think the design needs to be more of a blog theme / membership site focused.
    I think if you had a service that users could sign up too with a mailing list and high quality content regarding wholesale info, videos, guides etc..

    Then, you could build separate micro-sites similar to your homepage right now too market it, e.g the site you currently have, use this method for marketing the site, also market on forums such as wholesale forums, post on these types of forums and put the image in your signature and get in contact with wholesale company's and get them to help you produce content for your site in the form of interviews, paid features etc..

    Hope it helps, good luck

    Your site looks just like hundred of other, you need to do something different to the site. I would never have click here on my website or in signature. You need to need to lean seo techniques in order to build keyword related backlinks to your site.

    Before you market your site you need to improve it. Do you have full control over the site and content or have you copied and pasted content from somewhere else.

    You might want to check the settings on your pop up because it keeps on popping up every so often after closing. Users find that annoying. Also, it might better to ask for the email address of the user, then forward the download link to them instead of having the download link on the pop up. Users are not likely to trust download links, so they will just close out of the offer.

    You might want to add a few helpful links like what is wholesale sourcing, why should I buy the product, etc. Your site is not a website but a landing page that does not offer much value to users.

    Hope that helps. Have a good day!

    I always tell people who decide to sale information products to decide where they are going to market their product before they put in the work creating it. You can try locations like WSO and JVzoo as well as clickbank and craigslist. There are tons of areas you can market on, you just need to plan, budget and do it. :)

    I don't know... it's just simple landing page. If you want to increase actions or sales you need to work on it. Also use CPA networks and affiliate.

    Your website is like advertisements in ptc sites, meaning its like tell to ur audience from the beginning that you have something to sell them. The purpose, in my opinion, should be to inform them firstly and then sell something.
