Free Marketing from Site Reviews

Here is another tip on how to utilize some free marketing tools to attract more visitors to your site. The design and content of your website is so critical that it is worthwhile to seek expert advice. And there's no need to pay huge fees to consultants to do a review! Just ask the visitors to your website - they are the best qualified to give you an honest review.

Here's how simple this is! Just add a box, or area, to your main page on your website stating:

"We'd love to hear your opinion on our site
  • what you did like
  • what don't you like
  • how can we improve it

All your comments will be welcome."

Then, you just need to sit back and get lots of advice - for FREE!

If you want to "super-charge" your results, with just a little more effort you can get some added value using these simple tips:

  1. Make it simple for your readers to submit their comments - don't make them hunt for an email address. Use email forms, too, to keep your visitor's comments private and to protect your email address
  2. It is important to thank your contributors and best to do it in an individual, personal note rather than sending an automated standard response. This personal touch will invariably lead to further exchanges and new promising leads or sales.
  3. Never lose the opportunity to promote your business or website. In your "thank you" to the contributor, remind the reader, who has already been to your site, about a particular feature or service you have, such as a free newsletter.

If you want to dramatically improve your responses and feedback, here's how:

Give your visitors an extra inducement to contribute

There are literally hundreds of free books on the Internet. So, just replace that last line on your web page content with:

"All your comments will be welcome.

As a thank you we will send you a free ebook about Internet Marketing, etc."

When you send the book you could say:

"Get your free gift at

www.somewhere.com"

But, wait - we can even improve on this some more! As we saw in tip #3 above, you want to ALWAYS take the opportunity to promote your site, so what you should say is:

"Get Your Free Gift at

www.somewhere.com/freegift"

When your reader visits this page, at your OWN site, he will find the link to the book but you will have surrounded it with your best promotions and more information to invite them to browse even more!
