Question Making money

Hi guys, soz 4 not being on for ages, have tons of viruses and the best virus scanner was FREE! that was money wasted.

Anyway, how, apart from online advertising, do you generate clients or more page views?

A good way to do that is to build a site good enough for the clients needs and then they might pass you on to another company so my advice would be word of mouth from one company to another

fair enoug but you cant control word of mouth can you, and plus, thats not worldwide that extremely local in most cases

Mate wot you need to do is sort out a decent website, and plug it everywhere, its the best way just plaster youself eerywhere, forums, design sites anywhere you can and stay active, that was people will see your development

actually WOM can work in an online sense. If you plaster you site badly (spam it) then you'll **** people off wherever you go - subtle links in the right places are in fact much more effective (sigs/avatars etc) and can be just as in your face. create profiles where you can and make sure you name and site are linked and counter linked. WOM gets it when people see your site for them selves and recommend to others.

Look at toon and all the nice things he finds - come out with something sharp, new or different and the 'toons' of the net will sing your praises.

....or have any RSS feeds and I'll find you!!

No, in all seriousness the only sites worth revisiting are those with constantly changing content.

exactly what I mean, i wasnt talking about spamming just making yourself known wherever you go, just as you say in sigs etc, just slip it in wherever you can without seeming a nuisance.

WOM works online rarely unless you are very good at what you do and have a certain style. For example artists liek hejz and bigger artists or designers who have recognisable work (to the masses) You probably wont start getting a huge amount of jobs bia WOM online but you will via links wherveer you go

plus - always ask for features and submit your work to every contest or feature you see, the worst people can do is say no
