Aloha Everyone,

I recently read a post in our forums about how to get your website to be among the top search results when searched on the web. I don't have a website built, YET, so I've been advertising on craigslist.com and some non-internet venues. Well, I decided to do a search on Google.com for "oahu airbrush tattoo" to see what pops up... and guess what? My craigslist advertisement was the second (#2) website to pop up on the search results.

I'd say thats a pretty good un-intentional marketing trick!

Try posting on craigslist and see where you pop up, then let me know! I am curious to see the results.

Mahalo!

try searching for parties, airbrush tattoos, body art ect and see what the highest one are. chance are they are party planning sites that you can register with and voila, more top search engine stats for you

You could sign up with MerchantsCircle even though you don't have a website and use it for your website temporarily. It will also give you great results on a google search!

Oh yeah, and it's free!

On A seperate note, are any of you able to view the artist directory here. It won't show for me.

Been submitting my business to a bunch of site like merchantcircle. Finally got my listings to be the #1 search result on google, though it was still my craigslst listing. In either case, I'm happy! Slowly getting the hang of this advertising biz!

Thanks for the help guys.... and gals!!
