How would you market a: Web apps (PHP scripts) dev company?

3 replies
Hi there folks, Arron here from idevSpot,
Fairly new here, I was hoping I might get some advice for marketing my website.

A little about us:
idevSpot is a web application development company (we sell PHP scripts) we have been in business for nearly 10 years and have a variety of types of script to sell (ecommerce, digital download, classified directories, affiliates, hosting, real estate, etc)

Most of our traffic comes from either Google search, or script listing directories, such as Hotscripts, and that has been great, but I really think there must be more that we can do to get the word out,

We get a good amount of traffic, but we are looking to take it to the next level.

We recently had some video presentations made up which I think are quite good, though they do not get a lot of views on Youtube,

Google Adwords used to be good, but not it is a lot more expensive and we can't really compete for the prime key phrases since our products are fairly low priced.

We do have an affiliate program, but have yet to really find any masterful affiliate marketers to sign on.

So...
I guess what I would like to hear, are any and all suggestions under the sun, that might really increase our traffic.

I don't think I can link here, but you can Google idevSpot (or check the link in my signature) to check us out.

Thanks!

    Consider offering two options for programming:

    1. Sell the development of a script as a unique product.

    2. Sell the development of a script at a reduced rate, if the client is willing to let you resell the same script to others.

    That would help you increase sales.

    As far as traffic, this forum is full of people who would love to use your services. Get active and help people answer questions.

    Also use press releases and visit offline events like WordCamp and other local events that can be found at sites like meetup.com

    Network also with people who sell services to other online and offline business owners. Consultants are always looking for people who are capable of helping them help their clients get things done.
