Hi I'm a newbie to internet marketing and I bought a website www.BuySellRoutes.com from a friend a few weeks ago and I'm trying to get people to post their ads for free but haven't had much luck yet. Can anyone suggest how I can get sellers to post their ads. I have seen that the buyers are willing to register and look around but haven't had much luck with people posting even though its free. Any suggestions are welcome and also if you think you can provide relevant traffic I'm more than willing to see what u offering. Also looking for link exchanges with relevant websites. thanks guys really need your help
try to promote this in social media and networks.. you can use facebook, twitter.. use blogging as a marketing tool too..
Don't waste your time with blogging and micro-blogging unless you are an absolute amazing writer. Also don't waste time on PPC unless you have a good monetization plan for oncoming traffic. Since it's an ad site, perhaps posting on classified ads sites instead. Also start doing SEO whenever you got time or outsourced it. I run a free advertising site http://www.jihoy.com and it took me about 1.5 years to get to around 17000+ signups. On average you'd be lucky 1 out of 20 visitors do the free signup. It's a long and tedious process, but I'd happy to talk you through how you can market your site if you are interested. PM me if you like.
To get quick result, you will need to invest some budget on PPC and do some SE and linkbuilding with the way that you can expose your service and give them much benefit.
