Mini (Niche) Affiliate Site using a Forum - Part 5

Posted on December 26, 2007 by Adie Affiliate Marketing, Minisites 2 Comments

I have so far fixed my issue with the SEO (url_rewrite) so now that is done I can start getting some posting done in the forum, I think I might need to start doing this myself. One thing I’m working on today is getting a reliable quality service to help me research my market and place excellent information (posts) in the forum for the members.

Just a thought…maybe I should be thinking of starting a Membership site instead?

AARP

I have contacted one company so far who charge a basic $35 to submit 100 posts in a forum.

CommunityStarters This is cheap so lets see what the quality is like (probably using overseas non-english workers on it) if so I will not pay for the service. I need the english grammer and subject matter to be of excellent quality (obviously).

I gained valuable information using one forum just asking questions on my market place which lead me too AARP.org a very well organised website covering all manners of subjects aimed ar Seniour Citizens. Once I have enough quality information I will look to advertise with them. They seem to have strict guidelines to adhere too.

In one the forums I have used to ask questions I have now managed to list in their advertising section to gain a little bit more exposure. (might not do well yet seeing as I have an empty forum)

I am going to shell out another $10 on Sitepoint to see if I can hire a team or a person to help get the forum full of questions and answers targeted to my users.

So far my outlay has been $74 if you include the domain name, Sitepoint and SubmitEdge. (if you were to include my time that would be much more) I have decided my budget will be $500 to get the forum fully promoted. I think this is completely realistic with me putting the hours in also.

I have just found out DIRSP.com has closed down (great!) Luckily I just wen’t to pay for the service and they went down?

Going to get some information and resources in the forum next while I wait to see how my other outsource services get on. Next one to pay for is SubmitEdge - I have decided not to use GetMeContent after hearing about their unreliability. I cannot afford to waste time on a service that costs $250 p/m.

To test SUbmitEdge out I have puchased their Article Submission, if this goes well I will use their top service which costs $299 for Links, Articles, Social Bookmarking etc.

100 Article Submission Service with free Unique Article writing - 8 Days

The package is designed to submit your site to 100 high PR article sites.

* Free detailed report

* One free unique 500-word article written for your keywords.

So far so good really, now off to put some resource info in certain sections of the forum.

    If I had a $500 budget to start a website I would succeed no matter what. The advertisement to return ration on the internet is amazing.

    If you don’t succeed on this project with $500 you should have your webmasters license revoked ;)
