How do ordinary people find out about ordinary nifty new sites on the internet A. By: - word of mouth - banner ads - news stories - they search on google - they browse directories like dmoz.org and its derivatives, or yahoo - they opt in to announce lists - spam, but mostly this gets ignored So enhancements possible already to help "spread the word": - tell aquaintances about it, get them to tell their aquaintances - set up mutual banner ad rotation servers - talk to journalists - volunteer to be a dmoz.org editor for an "e-gold sites" node, then tell people about the page and get them to submit their pages for listing - set up an "e-gold spam" list, and ask people to join it from your sites That's a good start, no? Then maybe later you can talk e-gold into putting a "subscribe me to the e-gold spam list" button, or at least listing it on their own mini directory. --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
