I have read much of the forum rules, and I am trying to ensure that I don't get booted before I even attempt to post. I read the "read this before posting" on the Freebies board, and there are certain restrictions that I am not sure I will be in violation of if I post there, so I'm looking for advice, please. A while back, I built a site _similar_ to MDW, but not a "clone". It uses different software, and the only real similarity is the concept and the "W" in the domain name. I do have a few ideas on how it will be "better", and I have the functionality in testing (i.e., a blog associated with your keyword(s)). Soon after I built it, I set up a "contest", whereby I would give away 2 free "keywords". In 1 month, I got 1 response, even after spending a bit of cash on Adwords campaigns, and trying to get it out into CL, and putting up a banner on a friend's site that gets some decent traffic. I figure I need to learn a bit about optimizing adwords, or get more money if I'm going to continue down that route. What I'm thinking is this: If people here are interested, I would like to offer free "keywords" to the DP members, for some period of time. I haven't figured out if it's going to be "first _X_" or "for the next _Y_ days". Any thoughts are appreciated. Obviously the idea is to build content on the site, and hopefully generate some traffic... What prompted me to post this, prior to posting in Freebies was the term about "must not ask for user's email address". But, the way my system is designed _currently_, all users are added manually. I figured I would just get a trickle, and while that was trickling, I could enhance my system to be more automated... etc. So, if I "give" away these keywords/pages/whatever you want to call them, I would have to gather: keyword(s), and email address, so that I can create the account. So, basically what I'm looking for is: a) What is the best forum to post my offer on so that I do not get booted? b) Is this something people are even interested in around here? Even for free? Thanks in advance...
Also, I just built a Xomba-like clone. I am wondering if people here are willing to help test it out. How do I go about getting the word to interested DP folks without violating the ToS? Thanks a bunch...
