promotion??

[galaxywomun]

so you guys promote your site??  or just wait for stuff to happen??

[Deborahbv]

I perhaps shall simply keep silent

Galaxywomun , my best guess is that this site (as a free site) is pretty much 'member-powered' , with many active (& formerly active) members .

As far as promotion , the ones that happen here are related to the # of posts a member creates .... i.e.- 'new member', 'hero member' , etc. , as well as 'promotion' in the eyes of other members , depending on the expertise/interest/accuracy of research a member shares here .

Why?

[fancypants]

My best guess , as to the reason 'why' , I'd have to say "That's how the homies roll." (here @ antique-shop.etc) .

Perhaps other members will add to the thread with more notions/opinions !

    For some reason I'm lost on this Thread.  Are we talking promotion of this site?, or promotion of our personal site?  Sorry I get lost from time to time.

We're both in that dark cave , on this one , ironlord1963 !

[CuriousCollector]

I'm in the cave, too

I have no clue what this person is talking about or what they are actually asking !!

[mariok54]

I don't really understand the three comments

[galaxywomun]

ha!  i read this over and can see how it seems vague.  then i disappeared for awhile.  what i mean is do you guys promote through social media, ie twitter, facebook, etc.  i guess ebay is harder to promote thru busincess cards....any other ways you promote your *listings*  ps--i am an AVID twitter user.  it's fun!!

[ironlord1963]

    Personnally I do little promotion to my Ebay site, spend most of my time with research, photos, writing my post, them packing, any remaining time I tend to spend here, gosh what a lame life I have huh 

[rockandrollrods]

eBay has a long list of rules about promotion on business cards, but if you follow the rules, you can use their name. I've got it on my business cards.

Mine is for my own amusement so I don`t bother !! I don`t have time for social media, this group,a garden group and a couple of equine groups, two gardens, six horses, and husband take up most of it !! And right now I am painting my house outside !!

To the best of my knowledge, this forum is listed in search engines but not advertised elsewhere. I believe that the activity it generates results simply because it is interesting, not by way of any conscious effort to recruit viewers. Just my two cents worth.
