    hi guys,

    I just create new website and my target visitor is UK.

    Does anyone know where to market my site (it's about car insurance)?

    Also, I need a list of UK directory or yellow page if you have.

    Thanks

    Well this is called geotargeting. Try getting backlinks from .co.uk sites.

    Are you mainly using free methods?

    If not, Google AdWords and Facebook will easily help you target UK and car insurance.

    It doesn't seem that there are that many competitors for car insurance uk using adwords?

    How do you plan on marketing? Any PPC website should allow you to select your target market by geographic location. If you are targeting organic traffic from search engines you will have to target keywords that are only related to UK car insurance. E-mail marketing can be done by collecting e-mails from the UK only.

    It really depends on what marketing technique you are using if you are wanting to target UK traffic....

    co.uk TLD could have helped you in some bits... Additionally you can submit to local directories and online classifieds and get your site listed. You can target keywords that include locations like city, state, country. These will help you target the local traffic.
