Your marketing strategy in this would be the most important field.
The site is easy to use and quick so there is little to worry about there at present.

First, let me thank you on behalf of Olcore.com for taking a look around and submitting your website.
I'll answer your questions in the order you asked them:
Promotion, as of now, is mostly by word of mouth and communities that let us talk about our site like this one. Olcore.com is different enough that it will sell itself. As with any new business, we need to get the word out there as much as we can, and as the submissions start to add up, so does the traffic. We are currently looking into increasing our efforts, as we are getting a great response so far. Due to the increasing desire for more relevant search results, word of mouth will spead Olcore quickly.
Our target is fairly general at this point. Obviously we want webmasters, as they are what will build the Olcore database. Also, as with any search engine, Olcore targets anyone browsing the internet in search of relevant information. Searchers bring traffic, and traffic encourages webmasters to submit. It's a never ending cycle.
Why will people use Olcore rather than the other engines? First, we are not aiming to compete with the other engines, or say that we are better than them. They are all good in their own way, as is Olcore.com. You want relevant sites that are hand verified? You want Olcore.com. You want to avoid having to look at ads or to avoid only finding a website because the webmaster can afford to pay $50 a click? You want Olcore.com. If you want a level playing field where results matter to us just as much as it does to you? You want Olcore.com.
Just as with any business, Olcore is always looking to improve what we have, better our service for our customers, increase our marketing efforts, and maximize results. We believe firmly in what Olcore.com is about which is why we have come this far. Our main goal is to help others see that, and feedback like what we have gotten here has moved that process along quite well.
Thank you again for your questions, it does help us analyze ourselves, and see what it is that our customers and potential customers what to know.
Let us know if you have any other questions or feedback for us!
