#9 gamblingseo (Public Member) Social seedingwins here. Here's what I do on one of my poker sites: 1.Identify and develop suitable personas to target. 2.Create a good landing page onmy poker website. 3.Search Facebook for groups which address the specific interests/goals of the target personas (e.g., freeroll hunters, poker communities, university poker clubs). 4.Join each group, post a link to your landing page, as well as a short textual call to action. It's possible to post to 100 groups in about 12minutes manually. Beforewe knee-jerk and say, "Hey, this is just social spam," it is only spam if you are not offering something unique, and truly of value, and it's only spam if you post in untargeted groups. Benefits of this technique: - Zero cost - Zero barriers to entry - Instant results - Trust + free likes “ ReplyWithQuote #10 gamblingseo (Public Member) Originally Postedby TheGooner and tweet about it.

I think FBgroups>Twitter for gettingmore eyeballs. “ ReplyWithQuote #8 DanHorvat (PrivateMember) Let's assume the site is of high quality and people are genuinely interested in the content andwill be coming back and recommending the site to their friends. The issue here is how to let people know about that content; the rest will take care of itself. I'll take the Twitter advice. “ ReplyWithQuote #7 TheGooner (PrivateMember) Write timely, enticing and attractive content — and tweet about it. You have to be smart, of course; it needs to be "of the moment," actually informative and interesting. This won't be a poker site review, or a selling article; it's likely to be a news item or a popular event item. If it's in a subject area that you personally follow then you canwrite it yourself — and you can have your €500 back! “ ReplyWithQuote #5 Sherlock (PrivateMember) Crazy task. If I knew this I would be billionaire. Parameters have to be adjusted. “ ReplyWithQuote FROM THE GPWA FORUM GPWA Forum
