Re: online marketing Here's how to get 1,000 to 50,000 visitors to your site in a few days.
This is using a press release for more than getting press.
Think up something really cool and write a press release about it.
The cooler the better. A so so press release will still usually bring in close to a thousand visitors or so. A really good one can slow your server down with a surge in traffic.
And, that is if your press release does not get a lot of exposure in the media.
The five step approach below is true online marketing. Farc alone can send you thousands of visitors from one cool press release or article.
Plus, even with minimal sales, it's fun to watch the stats go nuts.
1. Think up something really cool and write a press release about it.
2. Post it on PRWeb.com. [small fee]
4. Turn your press release in to an article and post it on your website with a Buzzit button and social bookmarks added to the bottom of the press release and link to it from your home page.
4. Submit it to Farc.com and Buzzflash.com as soon as PRWeb has published it.
5. Get traffic.
PRWeb is good marketing in of itself. It can generate attention from the media including the major networks and newspapers. However, you need to be time sensitive, on topic and lucky.
Farc and Bussflash will send you traffic within an hour of posting. If your article is about a new website you'll get a hundred visitors, maybe. That's not cool though. If your article is on something cool but obscure, you can get a thousand visitors. But, if you put some thought in to it, check out what is getting hit on these two sites, and write something cool, you'll get loads of traffic for a few days.
Now, here's something to remember - you'll get a lot of traffic but these people are tough customers. Your conversion rate will not be what you expect. But, these are smart people and they will return. The initial influx of traffic is there out of curiosity. If your site is of interest, you will see your average daily sales increase steadily. No big bang but a nice steady increase in good solid customers.
I hesitate to post this, being in the t-shirt business myself. But, building interest in t-shirts in general is always good for business.
