I want to market my facebook game application Bad piggies (http://apps.facebook.com/badpigs). What are my best FREE options or technique to do it effectively. I want to target 1000 visitors per day.
firstly you have to optimize your website through search engine optimization, than your ranking will increase. and surly you willl target 1000 visitors per day
Just throwing this out there, isnt Bad Piggies the name of the alternative game to Angry Birds by Rovio?
Yes it is. My kids love it. Personally, I suck at it. Is this a "Bad Piggies" affiliate site or fan site?
Twitter, facebook, lists Facebook Fan-pages Check out this youtube videos for details - There are a number of ways to do this – including automated ways (which Twitter frowns on) and of course the manual way. I will admit I have used automated methods in the past – but these days I am more selective and while I still use tools, I use them to help me manage the twitter accounts easily. (Tools for example that allow me to forward plan tweets).
One way is by creating fan page of the application and attract traffic in that. Make sure you share some important related posts which will attract viewrs, like and share. Make sure you ask at the end of every post to use the app. We had adapted this to promote an app related to soccer. And we posted funny, facts and comments about soccer apart from regular news and it worked.
Is there a specific way your going to get these targeted visitors, by ranking for a particular keyword. Or your just planning it will happen some how.
1000 target per day is much work to do. first you should have your site optimized so you will be on top of the ranking, use all the other strategies such as, blogging, link building , social media, etc. Once you establish your self then it will be easier for organic traffic to flow.
A thousand visitors is hard to attain, but no worries, as long as you try, who knows of the outcome. anyway, you can try out social media and SEO as marketing. actually many ways to generate traffic, but the question is, is your game really fun to play? cause if it is, then need not worry, visitors will come rushing if they find your game amusing.
OMG. no useful info. all that seo, optimize etc. things. Isn't there some secret? some viral marketng technique etc.
Of course there is, but few know it. My company for example deals in viral marketing, but why would anyone, such as us, give that info away for free when our business is based on it? It would be like throwing away food, a waste. You have to either: Work hard Get the knowledge Buy services from someone who has aforementioned knowledge. If internet marketing was as easy as cooking pasta, everyone would be a millionaire.
To get free traffic in long term, you'll have to create useful content and share it either on your own blog, article sites, or web 2.0. Your content should be interesting to badpigs gamer for ie. badpigs cheat sheet. The game/product must be quality or good enough for people to like it, it dose not make sense to promote anything that people do not want, it's time wasted.
If you have Facebook app then add option to Invite friends and automatically post users achievements such like high scores on there walls . Thats is.Market it in Facebook.....
Try going through Facebook groups and other social networking sites where you could join with people who mainly talks about your product. They're always a good place to start.
