So I just started this new printing business a few months ago, it is doing decent I've had quite a few sales and a big repeat customer that I gained. I want to market this site better and and wanting advise on doing so. The website is http://www.godlikeprinting.com Any tips and advice are welcome.
Bump, I bought a signature with 2000 posts on DP. I decided on the first keyword I wanted to propagate throughout the internet. "Glossy Business Cards" - Google has a average of 2900 searches for this a month. I started making blog comments on "follow" blogs with the name "Glossy Business Cards" linking to my site. All of these a good idea? What else can I work on?
Since you've entered the blog arena, you'd be best served in you put up your own blog with good content on printing. Also,when you comment of other blogs, make sure you have a link back to your's. Also, make sure you have a link back to your website on your blog listed in Blogroll. You can also write articles on the subject matter and include links to your blog/website in the "About Author" box. These are a couple of ways to do additional marketing of your site. Hope this is enough to get things going. GOD Bless!!! Reginald Melchor http://getfreemoneybook.com http://getfreemoneybook.com/blog/
be a merchant in any affiliate network or set up your own inhouse affiliate program and pay for sales
It might be different in the US but in the UK the best way to make new sales is via telephone sales and marketing. If I had a site like yours - where you can design print - I'd be calling small companies all day, promoting a special offer and asking for an email address/addresses to which I could send a link. I've used vistaprint dot com a couple of times and receive and delete 5 emails a week from them - I suppose that's one way of maximising future sales potential from people who have already bought.
5 emails a week from Vistaprint.. Maybe this is a good way to kill future sales...its too much in my opinion.
I started an affiliate program for my site.. If anyone wants to register you can do so here. http://www.godlikeprinting.com/printshop/affiliates/ I am offering 10% Commission on all sales.
PPC would work well. Also have you considered joining an affiliate network such as shareasale and letting affiliates promote your business for a percentage of revenue.
