Promoting Website

I've been actively involved in developing and promoting our web site - www2.mc.duke.edu/9200bmt/ - and we've had over 8900 hits in the 6 months since we've launched our site! I would suggest getting listed with search engines as a good first step, as well as posting information about your site on bulletin boards such as this. Also, I've found it helpful to keep in touch with people who contact us via the guest book or by emailing the webmaster or other contacts listed on the site; I email them periodically when our site is updated to let them know what's new. There's also a great book entitled "The Elements of Promotion: A 'Hands-On' Guide to Web Site Promotion" by Robert B. Yonaitis.

Meanwhile, DO check out our site, too - www2.mc.duke.edu/9200bmt/

Can any one give me some information on how to promote your own personal website. How do you get people involved in your website. Thank you for any information given.

Since my website IS my income now (much better than I made as charge nurse of CCU), promoting it is IMPORTANT!! LOL!!!!

Of course search engines are important, and I also hand out business cards with my web address on them, I have a static cling decal on my car window, I tell everyone I know, I list it on my ICQ homepage.... and on and on!

Hope his helps!
