How to promote your website on MeKnows

June 24th, 2009 | No Comments | Posted in Internet

We often get questions from webmasters like “I have a website, but nobody ever visits it, why?” well, here’s the deal. Creating a website is no different from opening a shop on the highstreet. First you need to rent a shop, then you need to fill it with products.  You will need to open the shutters and tell the world right? Then as the word slowly gets out and if your product or service is good enough, needed and competitive you will get customers to your shop right?

A website is no different, you need to rent a domain and setup the site, fill it will good unique content, but often this is where webmasters, especially new ones think it end, and that visitors will magically appear from nowhere. Well, this couldn’t be further from the truth, you will need to go out onto the internet and tell the world about your site. There are of course companies that will do this for you, there are also lots and lots of different ways to achieve this.

A really great way to get the ball rolling is to submit a uniquely written article to any number of article sites available on the net. When you post these articles, you will usually have an opportunity to add a “link” back to your site in the resources box. The resources section is your little area to promote your website, you can add a link so visitors can find your site and visit. There is also another benefit and this is that those links are beneficial to your site in the search engines like Google, get enough of these “links” and you will find visitors pouring to your site from the search engines.

There is though something better than grabbing lots of resource box links, and this is to have the links buried right in the main part of the text of your article, Search engines LOVE this and you will generally need less of these links, which means less work for you. So where do you go to get links like this? Well there are a number of sites that allow this, a couple of well known sites like Squidoo and Hubpages are great for just this purpose. At MeKnows, we decided to offer the same great links right in your text, but the sites concept means, you don’t need to write a huge article, all you actually need to do is share a little gem of knowledge. This is something everyone can do easily, as not everyone can write clever well contructed articles, but everyone knows how to do something useful right?

Here are some examples of our users sharing a little gem of their wisdom with our users, meanwhile grabbing a couple of great links back to their own websites!
