Hello everyone

Hoping you can help as I am struggling here.

I am trying to drive visitors to my friends website. The website is e-commerce enabled and sells downloadable PDF puzzles (word searches etc). Whilst the puzzles have a biology theme, anyone can play them.

I have submitted the website to the puzzles directory of Dmoz and got nowhere. I have submitted the site to Google etc and got nowhere too.

What else can I try? I appreciate that is a pretty open ended question, but I would appreciate you all giving me as many suggestions as possible.

Thanks in advance.

thanks for those.

a couple of questions.

1. do you know any good puzzle or biology forums? Would you advertise on these using Adsense?

2. Can you elaborate on the Ebay listing. What do you mean by this?

3. Link trading with who? Any sites in mind?

I appreciate your help with this.

Thanks.

1. None right at the moment. I'll look tonight if I get around to it. Unforutnately, I don't know what adsense is... lol (blind leading the blind?) but if you or the person setting up the website is into biology- they could just join a discussion on a forum and mention their site casually. It's only underhanded and unethical if you're just posting your site for free adverts... that's lame. Maybe, since you are selling puzzles, you could find an education forum where teachers are looking for stimulating activities for their students "Hey, have you thought about sitting them in front of a computer and putting together a puzzle?" Or maybe a preschool is looking for safe for children computer software and stuff?
2. If you are selling a product, you might head to Ebay, and buy a listing there. When describing the product, include a link to the original website. If you are one of two people on the planet who don't know ebay... it's an online auction site. The problem is that ebay charges for the better listing... you might check out webmaster talk.com's buying and selling adspace forum... really cheap adverts there!
3. My sister is actually really into biology and things like that- I'm going to ask her where she goes to post and search for stuff. I'll get back to you asap. If you could email me @ juancarlosnacho@honestjuans.com it might be a little more convienient- I have to dig through a bunch of pages to get to this thread. Honestjuans.com is a teachin' site too... depending on the sites content (you could email the URL), I might be willin' to link trade with you- biology is always fascinating!
