I Believe My Sites Have The Look & Content

    Hello Guys,

    I've worked very hard trying to get my site setup. It's about one year old. I honestly believe it's one of the best looking and has some of the best content in its field, but it could be doing a lot better in Google etc.

    My first site is called www.ufoevolution.com and is about UFOs. My second site is called www.gameverdict.com Game Verdict is much newer and i'm just getting it off the ground. Both are about what the names show. :)

    Here are some things i do:

    • Submit articles to Digg, Stumble Upon and many more bookmarking sites.
    • Upload videos to YouTube with my sites watermark
    • Try to get links from other sites

    I'm still learing, could anyone give me some advice please on any other methods which you think are very good in trying to make my sites more popular. Also do you honestly think they have potential. I personally think the videogame site is gonna be very hard to make popular, because they is so much more compititation between videogame sites than UFO sites.

    Thank you for any help you might be able to offer.

    it actually sounds like you're doing everything right, and the sites do indeed look very nice. did you create the graphics yourself?

    in terms of growth - do you mind telling us how many visitors you get now? how long they stay, the depth of visit etc? i actually think you're got a great platform for natural growth, and i wish you all the luck!

    All this info is for my UFO site, as my game site is new and pretty much dead at the moment.

    Page Views Per Day: 8000-10000
    Uniques: 1500-2000 according to my hosts statistics
    Average Length Of Stay: 4-5 mins

    The graphics are mostly templates. I did do somethings like adding the backgrounds, tweaking buttons/colors, making logo etc

    Thanks, good luck in whatever your doing too.

    You could edit those google ads to mach up you website design. They can like stand out of the crowd and you are loosing click money this way. Read the google ads optisation guide. You can find one on every internet corner.

    Nice Site

    Okay one of the other members mentioned blogging, forums and social media. I would search for other sites that are related to UFO, find blogs and forums and post on these leaving your backlink.

    Ensure that the sites are of good quality and do contain the keywords to do with UFO's.

    Face book is a great way to drive traffic, I had a bookmark on face book the other day to my site and had 40 visits in one day from just that alone.

    Make an article and submit it to ezinearticles, your traffic will triple, if you do around 3 articles a day.
