Hello Group: Some interesting posts regarding BANS, I have a few questions, for a relatively untutored webophile. Ebay and BANS! recent post You don't need any resource web_dev, you just need to use social web2.0 services, which include social bookmarking services, yes. Use onlywire to bookmark any new site to 15 social bookmarking services. Then create single pages at squidoo, zimbio, launchtags, koonjo, buddymap, associated content, myspace, facebook, mybloglog,digg and many more. In that pages, use the rss feed of your site/store, and make all the pages related to the niche. Then add the site to free webdirectories, in the category related to the niche of your site. Put comments in blogs that are related to your niche (don't spam please). With this you'll create thousands of backlinks to your sites, all within the niche of the site. After that, just wait, with time you'll get the traffic that you need. I understand registering a domain, as an example if I want a webstore for Motorcycle parts, lets call it Cyclecity.com, and I want to open 20 sub domains, all with the same basic site, motorcity.com, easyrider.com etc. I don't get\understand all the article writing I have to do, if I go to a site like Squidoo, do I have to write a seperate article for each site and offspring site? I can't imagine the webmaster will like if I write the same article, just with a different signature (website) for each article, several times! As an example, if I write an article for Harley Davidson maintenance, under Cyclecity, can I repeat the same article with a different signature each time? I assume the more products and sites the better, How do you guys think up articles about some things you know nothing about? Doesn't make sense. Any help would be great! Thx Paul
