Client wants to promote his game for kickstarter
-
I have a client that wants to promote a game to get funding from kickstarter.com.
I'm still pretty new to SEO although I already had some projects. But this project sound difficult to me as the SEO must be worldwide. Where would you start to help his campaign to earn visibility. Besides On-Page Optimization I thought social media marketing would be best to make his website known within a short period of time.
What are your thoughts.
Thanks for any suggestion!

Hi Milan,
thanks for sour response, I took this idea into my slides for the presentation...

Hi Zoe,
thank you very much. Google Adwords is indeed a good idea.
-
Hi Moosa,
ok I will do so!
Thank you very much
-
Thanks Josh for sour great answer. I also think FB advertising is a good start!

Hi Marc,
Besides all those really great suggestions, don't forget some "hard" work. Promotion on game forums, as well as contacting well know game blogs for review, sponsored post, or something similar.
Cheers,
Milan

Hi,
You've already had some great suggestions! I'd also consider Google Adwords text ads, if you're looking to get traffic to your website quickly, as these can bring traffic right away. You can then work on optimisation to make the campaign more budget-effective.
Thanks,

When you say short period of time, SEO is not the correct answer is most of the cases but I would highly recommend you looking in to growth strategies, social media and content promotions that help you get tons of subscribers.
Also, running some kind of competition around the game should also help!
Just a thought!

Best Way to Promote Self Hosted Videos?
We are soon to launch 25 short videos on one of our websites. They are a little bit different and I think they have a particularly good chance of going viral. The videos will be scattered over the website on our actual sales pages (not tucked away on our blog). We are hoping (expecting) that customers will click on them and subsequently share them mainly due to the surprise / fun factor. I've got a lot of experience promoting our (linkbait) blog posts which usually get between 10,000 and 100,000 hits via social media blogs, however, I have no experience promoting video. We will do the offsite social blog promotions as normal, however, my two main concerns are: 1. I'm unsure how best to use the social buttons (facebook like/share tweet and G+). As I understand it (I could very much be wrong), I can either embed the social buttons on the videos so that they are easily shared across facebook etc... or I can make the the social button make the user 'Like' / 'Share' the page that the video is on. I assume that the latter option is better for website promotion but maybe not good for people sharing the video on Facebook etc. some of the videos do not have pride of place on our pages. An explanation or examples on the best option would be appreciated. 2. Should we hold off from putting the videos on YouTube until the website has earned some of the juice first? Or are we missing out on and opportunity by not offering all avenues at once? Any other tips would be greatly appreciated too! They will hopefully be up and running by the end of the month so I'll come back and let you know how it went. Thank you for your time guys and gals! Richard (Moz Customer 2391745) PS.

Hello, I would like to create a blog but i do know where. The options are to create a blog on a platform like blogspot or wordpress or make a 'blog' section to my website - travel content. Which do you think is the best? If I create it in my website, would that boost my ranking or authority? Thank you!!!!

Does anyone see any merchantcircle backlinks showing up in OSE reports for themselves or their clients?
Just got around to looking for a client's link on merchantcircle and didn't see it, so I looked for some other client's links from there and they don't show up either. Am I the last one to notice this?

Facebook Promotion Help
I am considering doing a iPad give away to gain more Facebook page likes. I have several questions running through my brain that I'm hopeful fellow Mozzers can help me with. I was thinking I'll give away an iPad for every 500 FB likes on our page...or $1.00 per like. If I get an abundance of likes will Google smile upon me? How do I track the entries? Are there any tools that can assist in getting the word out on this and or tracking it all? I'm kind of a FB newb!

Promoting a Facebook Contest
Hi, Mozzers- I'm running a contest for a client of mine via Facebook - http://www.facebook.com/barrettmoving. The prizes are great an iPad2 and an iPod Touch! The contest is pretty cool too. Basically it's a papercraft / travel thing that appeals to a wide range of people. Anyway, here's my question - I've started promoting the contest via social media, the website, online contests...like to get to promoting it on relevant blogs too. I'm in the beginning stages. Any other ideas? Has anyone had luck with PPC or FB ads? Thanks in advance! LHC oVThP5PcRvo
