I know both PPC advertising and SEO are crucial for traffic. But with my website model, i'm confused on which one should go first. A look doesn't hurt. Find free pen pals, make new friends, snail mail pen pals, chat rooms.

      Hi, I would suggest to use PPC first in order to discover which keywords work best for your website and than start with SE optimization for those keywords.

    Maybe. Or you might find some other source for traffic such as social media.

    You don't seem to be doing any SEO. There's only a login form, and not even any text on the front page.

    Links in signature will not help your SEO. Not on this site, and not on any other forum.
    Who told me this? An ex Google web spam engineer.

    What's your excuse?

        That makes no difference. Google would probably find it eventually, but it's very hard to rank as it is.

          Yes i know but anyway it helped to rank my site high. I mean when you search my sitename on google, it ranked high.

            Paying per click is not "going viral" in internet marketing terminology.

            Your site is not ranking high for anything that matters. You're searching for non-sensical word that you came up with so of course there's no competition.

              Little competition though. IMO Facebook ads is a nice PPC in my ppc-list. Would you mind to share your list?

                Nobody wants something like "varpals". It doesn't mean anything. Of course there's no competition.

                Similarly there's not much competition for "bladerp" or "uguguu".

                I'm not sure what you mean. What list?

                Facebook ads are something you really should try. Some companies are making a killing on Facebook.

      I submitted my site to google already. I should check for back links. I believe that's what you mean.
