Our Guide to web promotion
Our best tips..........
- Take time in creating your site - try, if you can to plan out what your site should look like.
- Add your site to as many search engines as possible.
- Webrings are a sure shot way of easy promotion. There many great oasis webrings, so try and join them all.
- Keep updating your site. There's nothing worse than finding a site that has few or little material. That will keep visitors way.
- Try and add humour. People are more likely to find out info on oasis on teletext and on the official website than on your page. That is why it is important that you're site has a perspective on things - not on stating facts.
- Plug your site on a few chat rooms. Yeah, you may get chucked out of a few of them, but atleast you are gaining an audience for your site.
