Hey Adam

Nice to meet you. I'm also a fellow webmaster and run a site (nothing to do with conspiracy though :p basically an education site).

After having a quick check of your site it looks as though you've just started creating it and there is ways you can improve it. I'm not saying it's bad at all, just a little bit of friendly advice if you want to get people to sign up :)

Hey thanks Chinchilla, nice to meet you as well. Yea the site just went live a couple days ago, I always welcome suggestions...:)

[sentinal]

Hey Chinchilla, I just checked out your website, i'm really digging it, very nice layout.

[chinchilla]

Thanks :D


My suggestions would be based on generating traffic/users to your site and to do that you would need a fuel. I use articles I write and add them to social news sites to generate my traffic, my site has only been active 3 months and I'm getting a steady 20k views a week which is increasing, due to that.

But remember that you just need the fuel, the articles aren't my site, my site is the summaries of books/videos/audio that are there. So your site being the videos, you'd need to generate traffic from somewhere.

Options I'd use would be either -


Blogging
Article writing
advertising/banner exchange


You could quite easily write nice blog articles about what you think of each video etc and have a discussion option so people can discuss and hopefully argue with your views (gets more views and registrations! :p) or you could research all current sites that are in the same area as you and ask them for banner exchanging. You put a banner up linking to them first, then politely send them an e-mail asking for them to put up a banner to you. If they refuse, you could just remove that banner and focus on other site until you get a nice little list :D

I'd start working on your video section also, but populating it a lot more, here's some sites you may not know about that may interest you to rip videos from -

Hope that wasn't too big of a suggestion! :p

hi i also am administrator of a site with over 8000 worldwide based members, not a truth site, nor an ediucation site.Well education in some way it is a music site

[sentinal]

That is all great information! I had no idea about those other websites I'm definitely going to go get some of those videos and put them up on the site. I was thinking about adding some advertising/banner exchange on the website, just wasn't sure which banner exchange would the best. Do you have any recommendations?

With banner exchange I basically mean just creating yourself a banner and asking people to put it on their site (what site you ask would depend entirely on what you want) for example you could yourself create a banner for one of the sites I posted and place it on your site. Then e-mail the admin of the site you are advertising and ask them to put a banner up on their site linking back to you so you both benefit, but you will benefit a little more since your site is new.

When you start raking in views/members you can start increasing the standards of banners you show until you're at the top of the hierarchy of paranormal video sites. :)
