There are millions of web sites trying to get listed in the
top 20 spots of the major search engines. That amounts to
a lot of competition! I say if you can’t get listed at the
top, indirectly get to the top.
How do you do
this?? Look up the top 20 web sites on the
major search engines under
the keywords and phrases people
would find your web site. The key would be to
then
advertise on those web sites.
The most expensive way would be
to buy ad space on those
web sites.? If you don’t want to spend any
money, you could
use the ten strategies below. These strategies may
not
apply to every web site.
1. Participate on their discussion
boards. You could post
questions, answer other peoples questions, and join in
on
conversations. Just include your signature file and link at
the end of
your messages.
2. Ask the web site owner if they would like a free
ebook
to giveaway to their visitors. You could have them link to
your web
site or include your ad in the free ebook.
3. Submit content to their
web site. You could write
articles for their web site and include your
resource box
and link at the end of the article. If they publish
it,
you’ll indirectly be at the top of the search engines.
4.
Write an excellent article review of their web site,
products or services.
Then publish the review on your web
site. E-mail the web site owner and tell
him or her about
it. They may link to your web site so their visitors
read
it.
5. Ask the owner of the web site if they would want
to
trade advertising. If you don’t get as much traffic as they
do, you
could throw in some extra incentives.
6. Propose a cross promotion
deal with the web site. You
both could promote each others products or
services
together in one package deal. This means a mention and link
back
to your web site.
7. Give the web site a testimonial for their
product or
service. Include a little text link for your web site with
the
testimonial. You never know; it could end up on their
ad copy.
8.
Post your advertisement on their free classified ad
section on their web
site. You want to be sure you have an
attractive headline so they will read
your ad.
9. Post your text link on their free-for-all links
page.
You want to go back and post your link regularly so it
stays towards
the top.
10. Sign their guest books. You could leave a
short
compliment about their web site on their guest book. Just
include
your signature file and link at the end of
your
message.
