    hard to promote e-commerce site. Need tons of backlinks. You need to promote your site on cpa sites. Take campain to some affiliate company.

    try something like COMMISSION JUNCTION



    it's at CJ
    dot
    c
    o
    m

    sorry for the URL layout - you have to have 10 posts here before you can post website addresses on this forum ...

    Commission Junction has a real good reputation as an affiliate control center

    Your site looks great ...

    Also - consider buying keyword advertising with Google and Yahoo once you have set up with CJ

    then promote the key word phrase AFFILIATE PROGRAM links to your page selling your program with CJ - that way you get your sales from the back door by letting other sites work for you which will help you get found on a bigger scale - with CJ - you target the product for your your revenue.

    ... hope that helps!

    the problem with this forum is that most of these people could care less about the little guy - if you can't show them how to make themselves BIGGER - they ignore you here!

    You have a nice site but I have a question...what do the two images on the page have to do with signs?

    I would suggest replacing those images with pictures of your work.

    Then you've got to promote:

    write articles about ... maybe about interesting signs you've done....and submit to ezine sites with link back to your site

    did you submit your site to the three major search engines? links in this post if you need them
    http://makemoney-affiliatemarketing.blogspot.com/2008/07/seo-oh-gee-not-again.html

    signup at linkreferral.com for free traffic...you have to work at it but traffic can be good

    your site link should be in your signature...

    are their forums for show exhibitors....get active on them

    just a few suggestions

    Looks like a sweet layout. I can't give too many tips but I'd say just work hard at getting it out. It may be more weeks or even moths until you start making sale, but thats just a test to see if you can stay focused and stick with your game.

    Theres a lot of great resources here, just keep reading, learning and acting on what you learn.

    God Bless:)
