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!

Promoting our blog posts. Effective ways and planning.
Hi Guys. I work for TOAD diaries, we make personalised journals and diaries. So we've taken a dive into blogging recently to help with brand awareness/ loyalty and increase traffic to our site. We don't have much of a social media following. So I'd like to know about other effective ways to promote them. The advice seems to range from extremely obvious and generic on the one hand i.e) post it to your Facebook, twitter etc, to seriously in depth, using a multitude of tools I've never heard of. I mean it's pretty overwhelming 😕 So I'd like to focus down on 5 or 10 ways I can 'get it out there' effectively. Any thoughts? What are the essential tools/ techniques/ jobs I should be doing? Etc etc. Note on our blogs: They are very different from one another, so far we've done how to make an origami boat and paper vs digital: part 1. We're also working on a time management piece at the moment. So they're all to do with paper, stationery, organisation, planning ect. But like I say each blog post is quite varied. Thus the target market varies too. Also, do let me know what you think to the blog posts 🙂 Any area's we can improve upon? Cheers guys. Isaac.

Where To Start With High Budget Client
I hope some of you may be able to lend some advice here. We have secured a large client who has a considerable monthly SEO Budget. The problem is this. They are in a competitive industry, the site is brand new, the brand name is pretty much unheard of but they have been backed by an angel investor and understand the importance of SEO. Now the guys obviously want to see that there money is being spent wisely and they are getting ROI, even if not in immediate results certainly by effort we put into them. Aside from having a small team initially going through there site to ensure that it is optimized to the best level it can be what would be your recommendations on getting this company off to the best start. Also they want to concentrate on natural search rather than PPC. Without mentioning the name of the company they are a software developer for an innovative ticketing system. Thanks in advance Paul

How to best promote this content via social media to gain backlinks
I have created this content http://www.musicliveuk.com/live-music/the-worst-function-bands-and-wedding-bands-ever in order to promote it via social media. Ideally I want it to be shared across the web in order to gain backlinks. My question is how can I best do this? I know I can post it on twitter, facebook, google plus etc... but is that it? I'm new to social media and don't really understand how to use it to good effect. By posting it on social networking sites am I risking people copying the content and duplicate content penalties? Any help would be much appreciated!

Face Book..your thoughts on promoting on main web site
Moz Community, I would like Facebook promotion opinions. I have a local business (Seattle painting contractor) and have built a fan page which engages our clients, local & national suppliers, friends and other contractors. Our original intent was to use the fan page to promote our main website; we never added a prominent "like us" button on our main page, we did not want to convert for facebook when our best content was on our site. I have been pleasantly surprised this past year how many fans we have accumulated by promotion and by accident. The main benefit has been rewarding engagement from other industry marketers such as Benjamin Moore paint company, and introductions to local design professionals..and these conversations once started continue by direct communication (email..phone). I have just added a facebook link on my blog..see attached picture Join our 2500+ fans. Primarily because the visitors to the blog tend to be the sort that engage on Facebook vs the type that want a painting contractor (Google analytics traffic data and click through behavior). I now have more traffic to the blog than the front end site. What do you think of the button? What else should be promoting? Come Learn more, see what we are about, enage, share, & learn facebook_button.png

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
