    What's the most efficient offline marketing of websites?

    Thanks. Can you recommend some marketing companies? Any idea where to start? Are there some places where I can find rankings for such magazines, like number of readers, etc. to know which ones to pick?

    What's the most efficient offline marketing of websites?

    Hello, I should start by saying that I'm not from UK, so I know very little about offline media. Recently I built a website with games similar to those in Countdown TV show, which I believe is very popular in UK, so I'd like to promote it to UK audience. <URL removed by Moderator> I'm doing my...

    how to find who made a website

    Please note that this can be misleading as most company websites are build by professional design companies, who often leave their own data inside.

    learning to build web pages

    I find W3C to be good when you already know a lot of stuff, but cannot remember some details about something. I hardly find it good for a complete beginner who should first learn some basics about design and how the whole web technology works together.

    Apple .v. Microsoft

    Microsoft won the PC war and Gates what right about that. However, tables/mobile devices are replacing PCs in many areas and Microsoft is not dominant there, but I don't believe Apple is going to be the leader for long. Android is using a similar everyone-can-build-it approach as the PC...

    Is it easy to set up a premium text service

    If you're looking to worldwide coverage, take a look at Fortumo. I've been working with them for more than a year and I've very satisfied. They also have a premium API so you can connect any kind of system to their accounting.

    Number and Email on website

    Google and co. do not show their phone numbers because those would ring all the time. They don't even have a customer support service e-mail. People are using their services for free after all, and there's no chance they could be able to talk with everyone who would want to contact them. On the...

    Best way to promote adult-only website to general public

    First of all, thanks for all the tips and ideas. This gives me a great idea. Instead of requiring the other website to have a 18+ Enter splash page, I would create such page on my website. It would say something like "you are leaving my site and going to 18+ page; are you sure?" The website...

    it outsourcing company

    I would look into some per-project outsourcing sites like vWorker (formerly rent-a-coder), monster or similar. Create a developer account and see the open jobs. These jobs are given by companies that might not be your long-term customers, but can be good references. If you already have...

    Best way to promote adult-only website to general public

    Yes, that's exactly what's bugging me. I'm looking for a way to add ads/link in some discrete way that does not ruin the user experience. Any ideas?

    Best way to promote adult-only website to general public

    I guess you're right, it could be a problem. However, when registering to play games, each visitor is required to enter his/her age and gender; I guess I could limit the ads to male population older than 18 (or better 21). Would that be enough? Thanks.

    Best way to promote adult-only website to general public

    I hope this is the correct forum for this kind of question. I currently run a successful website oriented towards general population. It's a website with various quiz games, and there are visitors of different ages and gender. I have been approached by webmasters of some websites that have...

    it outsourcing company

    You should find a way to contact your potential customers directly. Who are your customers? British IT firms looking to outsource some work. Here's what I would do: 1. create a list of good high-profile references, even if it means working without profit or at-loss for some time. You only need...

    Yes, TeamViewer is great, and also free for non-commercial use. Now that they have PC, Mac and Linux version I use it often. You might also like YuuGuu which is completely free.
