http://www.inspirational-quotes.net How would I market this site? I would prefer most of the traffic to come from search engines. Thanks
That's a competitive field as far as search engines are concerned. I know I've seen many quote sites already. Plus, wikiquote is on the up-and-up, and I don't want to compete with Wikipedia or any of its related projects.
Perhaps try some offline marketing or look into offline products; many corporate types use calenders with inspirational/motivational quotes on... It'd be really easy to put together and has the potential to be very profitable.
Try SEO and Link building on broad keywords, don't try get first page for quotes but maybe for inspiration business quotes, etc. and also you can try adwords
How are you planning to monetize it? It depends for example if you are going to earn a lot of money you will have many opp to promote it. And one more thing I've tryed to visit it by using Opera, and there were a couple of errors...
I will eventually put adsense and textlinkads etc onto the site. I hope to make at least $5-10 per day but the more the better.
You have to learn the rules of the game and then you ahve to play better than anyone else A quote from yoru own site
I did a little bit of a search and notice that no one is using a blog for quotes. I would set up a blog and then get a few plugins so people can add their own quotes to take a bit of the burden off you and then set up an autoresponder and just fill it with quotes and have it load one a day. You could easily add 300 which would cover you for a year. Or do a whole bunch under different topics and radom deliver over time. I have a free ebook on how you could do it that I just made for my group. http://rssresponse.com/images/Viral_Content_Riches.pdf Quentin
The quotes are made in text. The spiders cannot see the text. You should try to place some more text on your pages!
Think you have to add more content. Along with random quote you can make a categorized list of quotes for browsing.
There are a few methods: 1. Article Marketing 2. Social Bookmarking 3. Forum Posting 4. Ebook Submission 5. Directory Submission 6. Download my free report and apply the effective methods of traffic growth inside.
I think i will keep the current design (being fixed atm) and submit to directories and exchange links...what do you think?
Regarding the design, I think it would be better to be able to browse a range of quotes not just one and also have the option on the rating/slide show bit you have now. Regarding SEO remember to make the link text a keyword you want to rank high for but not text like 'quotes' because it'll be way too hard.
