I'm raffling off one of my aparthotels in Spain -- ten luxury houses and studio in a stunning location. I've put together a website -- self-written -- at www.winaholidayhomeinspain.com and now I need to get it out there and circulating. My practical question is, how best to do it quickly. I'm buying Google AdWords and placements on Yahoo and others, but there must be a better, quicker way to goose it up without spending my whole budget, or the first half of it anyway, on print ads.

Smart and practical ideas welcomed (and rewarded)

Hire an Excellent Copywriter for $174,000

Spend $1,000 on Adwords

Jack, you know darn well that It won't require that much money to hire a copywriter, so I know you're just saying this in jest.

In fact, I think what is needed is an experienced marketer that has copywriting experience than just hiring a plain-jane copywriter.

Whatever you do -- DO NOT simply throw your money away on advertising just because you have the funds available.

With your exceptional budget, I would "hire" an expert rather than trying to do this yourself.

In fact, if you do this right (with the right professional), you could probably do this for one-tenth of your budget.

Brainstorming -

Press release. Send it to the online travel magazines.

Also airline inflight magazines; many of them have online versions.

Contact travel sites with ezines.

Line ads in offline pubs.

Billboard advertising (@$700 and up. Cost varies from state to state, but industry is very competetive, so negotiate)

1. Limit the amount of bids.
2. Hire Harlan.
3. Build pre-release buzz.
4. Release.
5. Close bids 1 hour later.
6. Profit.

Save the $175K.

These guys will get you top organic placement in every major search engine including Yahoo, MSN and Google for any keyword you choose. The first two take about 7-14 days, Google around 60. But you'll get either first position or first page and they guarantee it.

So traffic will flood in.

Cost is around $3K.

sammer have u used them with positive results?

A word of warning to anyone thinking about paying for search engine optimization.

Always check out the company's traffic ranking's with Alexa first.

For example, the SEO company mentioned in the above quote has a traffic ranking of nearly 2 million - 1,416,938 to be exact.

I mean, they're in the abyss of search engine rankings.

So how in the hell can they guarantee anyone top rankings, when they can't even get out of the basement themselves?

If you have doubts about any SEO company, PM me and I'll tell you if they're legit or not.

Please don't fall for this SEO scam garbage!
