    I highly doubt we'd ever be able to narrow it down to THE best marketer here.

    If anyone here is selling perfume and making money at it,
    they get my vote for best marketeer!

    I tend to go for obscure products that people can't find anywhere
    else. This means that my marketing is just trying to get the
    word out that these products are available.

    But the guy next door to our company is making a fortune
    at selling the same things that a million other companies are also
    selling. He is obviously good at the other kind of marketing.

    best regards
    wiz

    Because if they're so good, I'm trying to figure out why they don't buy www.GotRecipes.com and GetRecipes together. There's a huge market gap for a simpler, snappier recipe site and those are perfect names. Even for cheaply programmed recipe management software. I'm selling them and no one wants to get a name in recipes.

    lol So the whole thread was about you wanting to sell a site?

    Recipes are a pretty saturated market. Even the large content networks with huge numbers of built in traffic, easy PR from interlinking and such... they still can't compete all that well. Even if there aren't tons upon tons of recipe sites (which there are), most people interested in them join community-style groups, or they go to the "big name" sites in the industry. It's pretty unlikely someone could just throw a recipe script or something up and make a living. They'd need something unique, like their own recipes, or user-contributed recipes... something that would take a good amount of time to build.

    Actually I was curious at first, hoping someone would post some inadvertent tips. Then I thought that really good marketers would think those domains were a good catch. I guess it turned into a plug.

    But being a good marketer has a lot more to it than a good domain... which is subjective anyway. The really good marketers could take even a completely obscure domain (ie Google.com) and make it a household name.
