Hey guys and gals, anyone who has a moment, I sure would be grateful if you would take a peek at http://fairytalesandfolklore.com/ and tell me what you think. Of course I need some pageviews and if you can friend the site in your google/yahoo/facebook/twitter etc... account I would love it. The real reason I'm posting though (and in marketing) is because I have a question about marketing into this niche. After I get some traffic I'll poll for demographics and target the site, but I hope to have some ads up pretty quick. What do you think you would sell to people reading fairy tales? I am assuming up front that I will be seeing mostly parents/families, and perhaps some academics or other similar readers. Does anyone else have any good ideas, or experience in this sort of content niche they would care to share? I think in the end I may go with a very few ad placements (the three empty spots on the site) and maybe a contextual link provider. Your thoughts?
While you might think it's going to be a lot of parents and academics, there will be a lot more Wiccans, pagans, convention-goers, Star Trek fans, and D&D players.
Oh I hope so!! Considering who I plan to use for an ad provider that would be MOST EXCELLENT. I'm working the sh*t out of friendconnect on that site so once there's some traffic i'm hoping it will be useful in finding this kind of info. Hey, and the guy I was asking about over at the troll war was here 'til about 1992, then moved to tucson. Probably not you but what a coincidence, eh? Last time I ever saw him I went to tucson for his (pagan/wiccan) wedding service, probably '96. I'm terrible about dates.
I actually "look like" a lot of people, strictly by size and hair. I've been mistaken for Zakk Wylde in Guitar Center, and for James Hetfield at a Metallica concert.
This was uncanny though, enough that I would ask even though I realize there are only the seven basic facial types. Expression/attitude and all. Brought back some good memories, in any case. Nice to meet you.
