Having a functional and attractive web site is just the beginning. You still have to find a way to get people to use it. One of the easiest ways to let folks know about your site is to leave a calling card for it everywhere you go on the web.
You probably already have your domain as part of your signature for your email account, but the title of this article mentions siganures–plural. There is an even better way to get the news out about your website than using your email sig–use your domain name in your sig on forums related to your field where you post.
You don’t post on forums? Big mistake! Posting on forums is an incredible way to market yourself online for a couple of reasons. First of all, forums allow you to communicate with potential clients who are qualified. You know they are interested in your market because they are on the forum in the first place.
Additionally, each post you make with a link to your site in the signature is another chance for someone to find your little area of the web. These links also help build your Google Page Rank, which is based on the number of links to your site and the strenth of those links.
Posting helpful and relevant posts on forums where people are looking for the services you provide is a great way to find new clients and get your name established. Thirty to forty five minutes of reading and writing in forums every day can do wonders for your online rep.
