In the last few months I started a new project that's done comparatively well.
Not doing close as good as I used to but it's getting there.
It has the potential and I can feel it.
Since many here are real pros and better than me at this, plus helpful, I am
hopeful that I get some good ideas in this thread.
New site I need help with lafamilijah.com
Now I have never been an adsense marketer (well yeah in middleschool I was).
But used to alway combine real live stuff with website niches mainly in real estate but also other stuff send over leads and earn commissions if they sell.
I got into facebook and started selling albanian/bosnian/croatian themed stuff for people from there in switzerland/germany/austria.
got good traction, celebrity endorsements and all that.
It works well so far, almost every 8th click on ads is a sale because it's highly targeted.
Having the future in mind, I'm trying to move the people away from facebook.
Because.
1. if I post too much I get to many hides so they won't see all of the updates anymore.
2. Facebook is getting to greedy.
3. Branding.
Making the new site is because I set up the shop with shopify and the content limitations are too much.
Some people asked for me to post more. And I want to be on their minds constantly.
Build a brand, associate Balkan and Fun with BUFU DM at my target audience my peers.
I tried newsletters though I have a lot of subscribers these kids don't open emails anymore.
I made a real life catalogue I send to people that works but is costly.
So I thought I do something like chive but for balkanians in german speaking europe.
What I want this site to be
- A destination for Balkan in german speaking europe
- the place people go to daily get a dose of fun
- highly shared website
- just as targeted as facebook yet with a more broad range of
content.
Instead of only balkan related pics and videos also other fun things.
- get the brand name and the website name into peoples heads and
make it something people would be proud to show they belong to.
Like chive.
- Sales. I don't want adsense or any distracting ads. I believe I will make much more driving the traffic to bufudm because it's targeted so well.
How I plan to get there.
- wealth of pictures, and vidoes categorized.
- share on our facebook page which is well received among my target audience.
- after I uploaded about 500 pictures and video posts.
I will schedule another 500 for the month so about 15 a day.
Difficulties:
Confusing for people to have two sites.
I don't want to take away the revenue driving traffic I have from my shop site to the content site.
Linking the two without creating a seperate facebook page. (or should I creat a seperate one?)
Getting traffic from there effectively to my shop site. www . bufudm . com
that's all I got so far.
I would so appreciate it for any ideas that are easy and simply implemented into a wordpress site.
I just started last night early this morning. BUFU DM | die Ausländer Familijah
I hope to get it up by tomorrow and start sharing it on our facebook like every 2,3 days.
what I know from my current shop site.
74% of visitors use mobile. So it's got to work well on the cell phone.
Yet also,
more than 60% of the people who spend money on the site do so via PCs.
Should I build a slider?
From Facebook.
Half are between 13-17 years old.
55% male.
But Females buy more.
70% of the fans are in germany most of the shop traffic too.
But 80% sales are in switzerland.
-Facebook comments yes or no? or use on site registration for comments?
or require no comment registration at all to increase engagement (people tend to comment pretty abusive shit even on fb)
-add banners on the side bar to the shop? above or below the facebook fan box?
should I keep the fan box?
I thought it gives the site credibility and shows we are together.
I know it don't look like much.
I will hire a professional designer once I got my new i5 cases.
But I thought I start promoting now when I at least have all the content up and content set for a month.
or should I wait?
thanks for any insight.
I want to get back into the game.
And I want to do it well and as fast as possible.
I can send much traffic if the content is good. We got a good video from a singer and hat 200k youtube views 2 weeks ago.
I also noted that sales go up 50% when I blog post on the shop and share the link with a picture.
Last but not least.
Do you think it is a bad idea to start diverting traffic like this?
