There are many social networking sites which are getting loads of traffic now a days.and its difficult to compete with them ,so i decided to make a niche one and took medical students and created a site using phpfox,i'm getting good traffic now. site is only 15 days old but getting around 1000+ unique per day. the site is http://www.medicalstudents.in Now my questions is how can i make it larger or profit from it.my paypal has limited so i don't have any mean of advertisement,as i don't have credit card too. What contents should i put in the site or any suggestions to compete with other medical students sites can you give me some suggestions. suggest me some alternatives that i should go for advertisements and earnings. thankx
You are doing very well to be getting that kind of traffic so soon! Where is the traffic coming from, if you haven't advertised anywhere?
one of my friend helped me put my ads for one day on his indian forum site for free on his forum.his forum has more than 2,00,000 members. first day i got around 5000+ and now haven't advertise so get around 1000+.
Adsense maybe? How about putting some related affiliate banner ads somewhere on the site? This shouldn't cost anything as a lot of affiliate schemes will provide advertising materials free of charge. Hope that's useful?
oh now site is around 3 months and getting around 600-700 unique per day.traffic was dropped a little.but don't still have ads on it. as my adsense has been banned now looking for other alternatives.
The site looks good and has a neat design and interface. I think you should keep on promoting it. Also try and promote it using some offline marketing techniques, like maybe a small newspaper ad or get an article published in a local medial college magazine.. with some interesting stats or data you collected from your website. Also, have regular polls and surveys on your website to keep your visitors coming back. You can take your website to a better standing in terms of visitors and traffic coming to it with a little effort.
thankx for your valuable suggestions.yea i haven't yet started offline adversiting methods,and has planned to get some paper ads and post on the hospital on hospitals that i work, and on several universities. thankx for you suggestions,rep'
