How to promote a Incentive Site.

    My mind has gone blank for the past few hours so I thought I'd just make a thread about it. Any ideas on how to get your site name out there?

    I think more information on the site is needed, but I do know that incentive sites can be marketed well with affiliate programs, also maybe try some banner advertising, and good old fashioned seo.

    Build a refer-a-friend inside your system. Make people refer their friends to your site for some incentive.

    I already got a referral system. The incentive site is just a regular complete offers and get cash incentive site.

    Offer your members a commission when they refer other members to your website. So in other words if member A refers member B, member B will earn all the money that a normal member would earn, but member A will also earn a percentage of member B's earnings which will be taken from your earnings and not the members, if you get what I mean. I think the average would be around 2 - 10% referrals earnings. The higher the more chance people would want to refer new members to your site.

    Customer service and paying on time, every time will also help with word of mouth. If you are late paying or don't pay one affiliate on time then that can send negative comments to many online forums, which you don't want. The more positive things said about your site the better you will do and the quicker it would spread and it can actually turn into a viral sort of thing.

    Other than that, there is an article here with ways of getting traffic, building links, etc. It's an article that I wrote, but hope it helps you a little.
