I noticed you mentioned you tried some search engine optimisation. Which key words were you trying to optimise for?
When marketing online be it
SEO or Adwords you can use a free tool to find what I call your money key words. These are the high traffic keywords that consumers are typing into Google and other search engines. The tool is free by Google. You can find it at this link >>
https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal
1. What you would do is set your country first. Let's say to Australia.
2. Then type in your key word where it says >> Enter one keyword or phrase per line: For this example I will use
"buy digital camera".
3. Tick the box that says: Use synonyms.
4. Enter the spam protection letters and click go.
Google will now do a search and let you know how many searches were done last month for the key words you entered as well as giving you a number of suggested and related key words.
When the results are in you would click on the heading that says "Approx Search Volume" it will be marked with what ever the last month was. This will bring the most searched keywords to the top of the list.
I can see that the key words >>
buy digital camera had around 40,000 searched last month. I would say this is a good key word to set up an adwords campaign for if you are selling this product and can monetise Google adwords.
If you don't know how to monetise Google adwords
Michael Glanfield sells a really cool adwords training video tutorial course I purchased some time back. Very easy to understand. I can't remember the link but I'm sure if you Google him you will find him and his course very easily.
As for the search engine optimisation... it will take some time (3 to 6 months on average) if you hire someone really good to get you a front page listing.
If you want someone for your
SEO I can highly recommend a young lady I use in India. She is not the cheapest but out of the 21
SEO people I've hired over the past two years she is on the ball and very good. Just flick me an email at
mark@internetmarketinginstitute.com.au with the subject line (
SEO India) and I'll reply with her details. Alternatively drop me a line on skype. My details are on this forum.
Also I use the content network of Google adwords... very cheap and productive... many, many hits to a new website the first day from this alone. Always be sure you separate your content network with your search network when using Google adwords.
I hope I was not too confusing, rather more of a help.
