  Arrow Online marketing now harder than rocket science

I have not been doing well in generating traffic online for a year now and I am thinking of going offline to do some marketing.

I wonder if this is just me or does anyone also have the same problem or any ideas on how to get 500-1000 traffics daily without doing doing PPC ads?

I did PPC ads about 2 yrs ago through both Google Adword and Yahoo and the ROI were very lousy and discouraging so I stopped.

Your reply would be appreciated.
Thanks

You need to focus!
The <title> and <meta> tags are stuffed on your secret 33 page.
Narrow your focus so that the bots know where to concentrate on.

Maybe you didn't do PPC well enough... Personally not sure offline marketing would give a good return.
Personally, I'd go back to PPC first principles, and continue until you get a campaign with a positive ROI. From there it's just a matter of scaling and replicating.

In my experience, offline marketing averages at about 0.05% to 0.1% conversion and is more expensive than online marketing. Both have their place though.

Having a site with visitors is easy if you have a site with real content.

Your website has hardly any real content, links and the odd rss news feed are not content - does your website really add anything to the user experience?

Rocket science also isn't really that hard, popular misconception

Knowledge on how PPC works is the first step for this type of campaign. PPC is a trial and error method. You experiment with keywords and don't bid that high at first, not until you see some good results on some of them You should also try out other PPC providers for more reach.

I just posted a thread entitled "PPC tips", maybe you will find it useful
