Hi I have just launched a website called "million pound email", and I want to now how to market / push it. The idea is to get people to register for the email but also to sell advertising space on the email that the people receive.

Any advice?

url is millionpoundemail.com or .co.uk
 
Erm, I could do some SEO for you if you want for a small charge...

Can I ask what topics are going to be covered in your email newsletter. Is your only source of income the adverts on the newsletter?

Are your topics general that all english speaking countries will be interested?

Hi,

I might be able to implement your domain name into some of our hand stamps, we do hand stamp advertising at clubs venues and festivals.

have a look in my sig at Stampvertise.com

If you are intersted should be able to do a good deal.

I think our idea would work with our demographic.

How have you got on so far...

What incentive are you going to give people to register for the email?

It sounds like a good idea but you have to give them a reason to open your email in the first place. If your ezine is just full of ads they will just be forwarded to the junk mail or worse - unsubscribe and gone forever!

The winning code for the £10,000 email will be put in the footer so people will have to open the email to see if they have won.

Hello Googie,

Firstly, if you haven't done so already register your site with the directories.. yahoo, dmoz.. etc

Make sure your you are search engine optimised - if you have to ask what seo is get someone to help you. Getting the right key words that are very niche is a time consuming experience. Then putting these keyworks (one seperate keywork phrase per page) into your title tag, headings and scattered through your text is relatively easy (and more interesting) after that.

After that, I would put a pop-up on your site which pops up twice (proven to be much more effective) offering an incentive to sign up. Do a deal with a friend/business aquaintence/someone from this forum who has a product that appeals to your target market. Offer the visitor a chance to win the product and draw the prize once per month... your friend will get free exposure for his product and in return will give you the product for free.

Hope this is helpful,

cheers

If you're looking for fast measurable results I'd recommend looking into Google Adwords.

If setup correctly you'll be able to track the ROI to the keyword level.

After you know which keywords lead to business then you can start thinking about SEO.

First find out who is your competition, any good web designer/marketing guru should be able to help you with this by looking at what rankings they have on Google, utilitise what keywords/meta tags and link referrals they have on their sites and combine them. Use them to your advantage and bring your site into the focus within 6-8 weeks. In the mean time use Google Ad-Words to get you a top ten ranking on the sponsored listings which needs to be monitored, but if timing and cost is an issue do not spend large amounts of money on Google-Adwords as they will be gone in a few days, plan with your web designer/seo/marketing person when you are going to both strategically push your website out there like there is no tomorrow to make the biggest impact possible. Then you will get the results you would expect. Good luck :)

Personally, I would avoid putting those 'pop ups' on your website, as they are highly annoying, and off putting, but many people fear they are trying to place a tracking cookie on their pc.

I would really recomment utilising the power of social media. Facebook is already a great way to promote yourself and your brand, and has great viral tools

Twitter also is a great tool for leveraging the power of word of mouth. With over 300m users it is a great marketing opportunity.

Obviously SEO remains a great tool for marketing your product on search engines, but remember that search engines are not the only portals on the internet. Facebook for example has overtaken Google as the most visited website in the US.
