Hi Bengo
Thanks for this FANTASTIC article on how to promote your site. I hope SynthaSite users, or anyone who publishes on the web will read it. You have given us a great real world case study of how search engines work. The reason engines like Google give such useful and accurate results is that their formula allows the best sites to rise to the top. This way when you and I "google" we find what we are looking for. The flip-side is that when you publish a site or blog you cannot expect to immediately find your site on the first (or even second, third or twentieth!) page of a Google search. You need to demonstrate that you are an authority in your space, in much the same way that Bengo has done. Your case study relates to comic artists and animal lovers, (of which I am one, therefore although I don't read comics that frequently you have told me why I should read yours!) However, the same principles work equally well for any subject matter. It's all about finding your niche and becoming an authority in your space. Add value to your visitors by having great content, and then network like crazy and the good traffic will come.
And take note, people, by publishing this super cool article on our forum, Bengo has added quite a few inbound links to his site and blog. More power to him!! You are all welcome to do the same by jumping in on this topic, or any other topic related to creating websites. Tell us what you are doing with your site and include a link!

You should find as many ways as you can to promote your site! Once your site is published, make sure people know about it. If you have a Facebook profile, be sure to post a link to your site on it. Participate on blogs or forums in your area of interest and mention your site. Add links to other relevant sites or blogs on your site and then ask these sites to link to you by e-mailing them directly or signing their guest books.
