"How best to market a crowdsourcing website..." Fri May-02-14 02:52 PM by Wyldblu
Hi,
My husband and I just started a crowdsourcing webite to help new businesses (and old) develop designs and branding for their companies. I have spent all day sending out an introductory emails to everyone in my local Chamber of Commerce (with their approval), but I am wondering if I am just spinning my wheels. Our web host is providing SEO for us, but that may take a few weeks. Anyone have any ideas what the best way to market this type of business might be? We will be starting a blog as well on the site to halp facilitate web crawlers finding us. But, we need ideas. Anyone?
