How do I people to know about Bootysmack.com?  We are an
entertainment/news/funny/clever site that is kinda of like
DrudgeReport/Fark but much better and with lots of our quirks.  We
just relaunched and everyone really loves the site but most people do
not know about it.  How can we get people to know about it?  We're on
all major search engines but still.  There must be something we can do
to get ourselves more known with our lack of budget.

Hi there,

The most important thing you can do to help your site get noticed is
to submit it to the Open Directory. The same category as Fark would
make sense:
http://dmoz.org/Computers/Internet/On_the_Web/Weblogs/General_News/

Then, use the Google ToolBar. Visit each site in the above category,
and use the toolbar's "Backward Links" feature, which comes under Page
Info. Take note of where the other sites are getting their links from.
You are lucky, because rather than being a competitor to the other
sites, you are a welcome addition to the genre. Many sites that link
to the likes of Fark will happily link to your site as well.

Google search results are the best way of getting visitors, and people
linking to you is the best way to rank highly.

Update the front page of your site every day. Everytime you update it,
submit it to Google. Keep doing so until Google notices that you are a
"fresh" site. You will be able to tell when they notice, because there
will be a date alongside your listing in the search results. Being
"fresh" should equate to a higher ranking in results, and more
importantly, when someone searches for Iraqi playing cards, your site
will turn up when the topic is hot, and not a month later.


Best wishes,
