I want to start a business related to online cake booking.

For this I have designed the website. Can anyone please suggest me, how can I reach the people through online to improve the business.

I already have an idea about SEO, SMO, Google ads, and Facebook ads. Instead of these activities please suggest other things to do.

Thank you to all.

    Hi Hemanth

    - You Tube videos attract a targeted search. It's free to do & you can put a link to your website below your video in the description box.

    - Banner ads work very well. If you haven't got a banner do a search as there are lot's of services to have one made at a reasonable price.

    - Start a blog to brand yourself & get free search engine traffic.

    - Build a list to build a relationship with your prospects & over time you can promote your products.

    Cheers

      You can put a link right on your videos that are a flyout for free. They are called Call to Action overlays. Google adwords account is required. Pretty easy to do. Here is a video on the subject to show you how.

    Initially, you can go with PPC for branding purposes. This will help your users to know about your business services and website easily. Simultaneously, you can focus on other areas including social media, blogging and website SEO. These are the other ways that will help in improving your website visibility in search engines in organic way.
    In social media, you can create profiles on websites inclduing Twitter, Facebook, G+, LinkedIn, YouTube, Pinterest etc.
    This will enhance web visibility and make your users talk about your business services. Update them regularly.
    Create Facebook Page, LinkedIn Company Page, G+ Page, Pinterest boards, Youtube videos, infographics and slideshares related to your business services.
    For website SEO, you need to do proper keyword research where you can find more relevant queries for your business and add them in website title, meta description, meta keywords, heading tags and content.

    There are many ways you can drive traffic to your website. Really on only organic traffic or one source of traffic is setting up your site to fail.

    Try all method. Use the one that works.

    Coming to SEO, it will give organic results. But it takes long time to get results. And there are many people in this line of business. So, is there any other ways to promote my business to get immediate results?

    Thank you to all.

    Go for PPC to make your brand popular and gradually combine it with SEO to increase you with your website's traffic. A combination of PPC and SEO is a great way of maximizing internet marketing to promote and grow your business as well as gaining profit and conversions on your products/services.

  • I would suggest you start with blogging one of the best way to get more people...such as blogs with tips, how to videos, how to articles, and implement all these in your SEO and SMO strategy to work on.

    Apart from this, look for influencers who cam hepl you promote your business on social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

    It would be great if you can share the website link so I can review the activities you are going on...

    In my opinion Facebook appears as right way to start. There you can share useful TIPs and videos related to your niche, through your FB page your friends will get know that you have online business presentations and through your friends you will be able to attract more and more users.

    Google search ads would be the most effective IMO, facebook ads as well

    i'll suggest you join so many facebook groups, not particularly any specific niche per say since cake booking is what may appeal to whoever needs it. just google on how to join hundreds of facebook group and start joining them one after the other.
    you can achieve that starting from this moment as you implement it. After joining up to lets say close to about 100 to 200 groups,by then, 90% of them would have accepted you, copy their links on your tab and paste them in note pad example=>www.facebook.com/groups/workfromhomenewyorkny/
    now go to google and type in linkopener. the first option on google which is linkopener is what you click on, copy out up to 25 and put inside this link opener. you may start clicking them one after the other in this software and entering your message about cake booking where you redirect them to your website/blog.
    i did it and it was a wow experience.
    hope this help.
