I've been browsing for a while but this is my first post :-)
Shall be launching a website aimed at 18 - 25 year olds. We have a tonne of content (around 60,000 words) which is made up of over 150 articles - very content based.
Looking to promote ourselves to the target audience. We will use Facebook, bebo, myspace (though i realise they have very low response rates). I'll also be handing out flyers. Its been suggested we use email marketers who only charge you for each sign-up but i couldn't find any :S
If anyone could recommend people to use for this sort of marketing (sms and email), or have any advice on what we should do it would be greatly appreciated. thanks!
oh ps. have no idea how much we should expect to pay for seo on a site of this size, and likewise whether there are many affiliate marketers who freelance and could provide support on a project like this - for our affiliate links (as publishers rather than merchant)
You get a free number & word combination to print on your fliers ("text PATRICk to 07786200xxx to receive special offers, news and updates from Patrick's business!").
By doing this you grow an opt in list of customers who want to hear about your offers.. and when ready you buy SMS text message bundles from 3p per text and send out your messages.
A copy of your received messages also get forwarded to any email address or webserver of your choice.
Very low cost and highly targeted marketing to people who have chosen to receive it.
Please contact al@txtlocal.com or call 0845 0093182 if you want to chat.
Many thanks,
