Elliot’s Minisites – the good, the bad & the ugly
There’s a great blog post on Elliot’s blog about his experience with minisites….the post is great and the feedback from domainers is great too. It’s reassuring to be honest to find domainers such as Elliot who don’t inflate traffic/revenue numbers…..
In my opinion, the minisite being developed is JUST the begining….thereafter, you need good search engine optimization and continous link building. Optimized content/copy is also VITAL to your online success…..just having a minisite built for a couple of hundred dollars won’t cut it….you need REAL SEO and inbound links…
Don’t believe me…go to google and do a search for food coupons….see www.FoodCouponsDirect.com listed? How about a search for frozen pizza coupons…see www.AllPizzaCoupons.com ranking #1 and #2? These minisites didn’t rank in the top of google by accident and not just because they have keywords in their domain name….these sites have been optimized and have good quality links pointing to them….see my point?
Do yourself a favor and if you’re interested in domaining and building minisites, be sure to read Elliot’s blog
