I am looking for someone to help advertise one of my sites. I have tried a few things on the site but all have not worked. What I tied was facebook posts and site submissions all bring traffic to the site but still not many sign ups or posts all I have done is taking it to PR4 then stopped and now PR1. I have looked through and I think the areas I need to work on is 1) forum posts to relevant sites. 2) posting on different blog sites. 3) backlinks/link building I guess maybe someone might have other ideas? The site is a mobile phone forum it has a few active members and a few posts but nothing special I guess I am looking for help getting the site back up and running it used to be a little more active. I will be away over the weekend but feel free to pm me for details and budget you can offer and I will agree to someone or feel free to post here. Thanks
I know exactly what you mean. You could be giving away free money and people wouldn't participate in a forum. It's hard to get people to sign up and participate. Have you tried "ghostwritting" to get the appearance of activity? I know facebook advertising is worthless, as there is a very low clickthrough rate.
I have tried facebook before and it did bring in some but not many signups. I have paid for directory submissions and spent some time adding myself this did bring the PR up but then had some site issues which meant it was down for a few weeks losing the PR. I have gotten it up and tried a few things but all these things just seem to bring traffic for an hour then stops. I have sent pm's back to those offers I liked and still got a few to look through. Feel free to send me your ideas and the price I would be looking at this long term if the first few months goes well.
