I have got 200 subscribers! Time to celebrate and giveaway

Filed Under (Blogging, Traffic) by James on 31-07-2008

I finally broke the 200 subscribers list. It took me a long 10 months to reach 200 subscribers. I know it is not alot as compared to those big timer out there but I am still very happy to reach this number.

Want to know how I got 200 subscribers, read on:

I paid about US $100 to advertise on carlocab.com for about three months from Jan to March 2008.
I used a combination of banner ad and text link ad. Text link ad seemed to give a better clickthrough.

From April till now, I got new subscribers through Youtube where I posted a video almost 10 months ago. The video is getting about 100 views a week.  Video is one way of getting free traffic to my site. I wrote an article on using video to drive traffic to your site. You can check it out here. 

To celebrate my 200 subscribers list, I am giving away my Classified Marketing Secrets to the first 20 people who post a comment. Only for the first 20 people so better hurry.

   Hey James,

   Can you talk about other places you’ve advertised to generate traffic? Thanks for the CarloCab.com tip.

   Read your WF post - great start - I say that because there are a lot of folks out there who have a lot of words, but not a lot of action.

   Keep moving forward.

   Nice work on the list. Yes, it’s slow, but now you just have to amp up the efforts and keep going.
