    Well i have a problem, i'm creating a website and it's pretty much done, but now i'm asking myself what should i do to attract more visitors... Pay someone to write forum posts - blogs... I don't know if fiverr is good, have you guys any experience with the web kick ofs? or anybody has interests of writting something?

    Well i'm on a loooow budget and i kind of feel stupid if i'd had to pay for every post, i don't know how long would it take for someone interactive to register and start participating for free... You guys have any experience? Anyone??? :)

    You can buy a signature link at popular forum. This will help you in this way: in all his post (either thread or post) in the bottom your link will be appear. For example of DP, suppose some one has pasted 200 thread/post then your link will be appear in all his 200 thread/post. and One more advantage of DP is every post is indexed by Google in just few second/minutes and it's traffic very very high you know.

    If you are interested in Signature link at DP then you can contact me to links.mnalam[@]gmail.com

    Best Regards.

    Hi. If you want people to come to your site you have to give them something. This means writing quality information that people will be interested in reading and will make them want to click through to find out who you are. Don't get fooled into paying for low cost links which people claim are high quality and will bring you loads of traffic.

    What I'm saying is that if you don't want to write yourself. You are better off paying for one awesome high quality article than getting 1000 low quality spun ones for the same price. In the world of internet marketing always think quality over quantity.

    If you think of the experts in this field, the "gurus" who are making millions, you never find something they've written which is really poor with incorrect grammar and making no sense.

    Quality over quantity!!

    good luck

    It really depends on your niche and whether you can create some social buzz, a press release or get a high PR link or 2. If you want to put your website address in the thread you may get a bit more advice or offers of help.

    I think you have to frequently update the posts that are interesting to a lot of visitors coming into your web site.

    What kind of a website is it, just a social/chat type or do you have a particular niche that you are targeting?

    Create awesome engaging content that generates discussion. To do this you need to understand your audience.

    As far as I'm concerned the words "social" and "deviant" are not compatible. I for one will not be checking out your new site.
    Good luck to you with all.

    Of course, this is the key to content. What is most interesting to me is that "quality" can be defined in limitless ways, depending upon the audience (it could be a quick joke, a snarky comment, or a scholarly treatise on a scientific subject. However, the grammar, syntax and vocabulary need to be meticulously correct. I am particularly fussy as I was an English tutor while in college, but if I see a language error, I am immediately suspicious of the quality of the related product/service. If they are not quality-conscious enough to proofread their sale pitch, why would I buy something from them that may be similarly quality-deficient?

    If you have a low budget, then it may be worth checking out Fiverr as you mentioned. Despite the fact that a lot of low quality writers are present, if you're good at reviewing people and spending wisely then you can find yourself some good and beneficial gigs for your site. Check out the feedback of the Fiverr users and see who has the best reviews for their writing services. It's the best way to start a site up. You should also consider creating accounts yourself and posting as somebody else - it may seem silly but it's a great way to get activity flowing and attract potential, real members.
