How to Market Your Groupon Clone Website?

It is not a big thing to create a Groupon clone website. Lot of web development companies now offer script from $50 even some websites offer it free. It will be a few hundred dollars to create a Groupon clone website. But the big challenge starts when you market your group buying website. Direct marketing is one way to popularize your new brand. Apart from that you must concentrate on online to promote your group buying site.

Here I am going to give some suggestion about promoting your web site at free of cost.

Blogs:
Start blogs in the name of your website or brand and post it regularly with good content. Some of the popular sites that allow users to create free accounts are blogger, wordpress, blog.com, livejournal, bravejournal, hubpages, squidoo. Don’t forget to get back links from blog posting. Submit the RSS feed of the blog the RSS feed directories. It will bring traffic and your website will get boost in search engine ranking position.

Forums:

Group discussion groups and forums are one of the best ways to spread about your newly started web site. Post question about your website design, logo and features of your website to the forum members. Add signature link to the forums and participate in your product related discussion. Use market place area to offer some discounts.

Coupons:

Add discount coupons to the deals and coupons sites. Fix closing date for the offers. You may easily get up to 100 coupon sites by using Google search.

Classifieds:
Free classifieds are another medium to promote your group clone website. Use local classified sites to sell your products and services.

Social Book Marking:
In my experience a good posting or offering brings thousands of visitors in day. Some of the popular social book marking sites which bring more traffic to your sites are dig, stumbleupon, mixx, delicious, reddit. It not only drives traffic and also increases your search engine ranking position.

Social Networking:
Social networking sites are not only used for interacting with friends and it is used as a major marketing tool. Use facebook, twitter, myspace to market your Groupon clone websites.
