hey,
need a bit of advice...

My paysites are ready, Ive got all the stuff needed to scale the whole thing, sites are converting...and ive got a bit of $ to buy traffic...

Now Im a bit puzzled on how to get the thing kickstarted a bit.

1) Buy banners here on gfy, and other places, to market my programme?

2) Buy only limited banners and then spend the majority of the $ on targeted traffic?

3) Give aff. special prices, like $1000 bonus to the first guy that sends 20 signups every week?

4) what else would ya do?

gimme your

I'am somewhat in the same situation, I've tested my shit on my own sites and it converts well, so I approached some of my friends who have bigger sites and asked them to give it a try, they did and it worked out the same for them, thats how I got my shit rolling fairly quickly.

Now I wanna buy advertising on some of the Really Big Sites

I'd avoid buying a banner on GFY just yet, You should test your stuff alot before opening it up to other webmasters (specially this many)

I'am really not close to the level of having or wanting an affiliate program, I already waste enough time with school and other shit in my life and having to babysit 500 webmasters sending 10 clicks a day does not the least bit interest me, I like to just promote my stuff my self, have a few friends promote it and the odd webmaster from here. When I have about 10 to 15 webmasters, the signup form disapears

So yeah, I would buy traffic for my sites, you really have to build up a reputation with your sites before your affiliate program will be successfull in my opinion. Look at OxCash/Nastydollars/Soulcash etc

It also really helps if you have your own source of traffic, I can generate like 20k a day with a single link off a couple of my sites.. I use to really hate how program owners would beg webmasters on icq for traffic, people with there own traffic dont need to do that thankfully

thanks for your advice, guys

basically, i think im like ½ through the testing, sites are really converting quite well, i do have the time (together with my 2 employees that is) to take this to the next step. I have the $/? ready to invest.

So really - i was asking you guys what the best middle/long term method would be to get to world domination ;)

and, naturally, there is no "correct" answer, but any advice on how to take it to the next step would be cool
