How to grow my event website?

I would say your e-mail replies are REALLY high - 20% response rate is AWESOME.

There is a bit of a catch 22 here. YOU want more people to list the events ( and get paid ) BUT the people you are seeking need people to visit their events.

The maybe not so obvious answer here is to keep up with your e-mail efforts but spend F A R more time working on the people that would attend the events.

Generally speaking people that put on events... attend events... and if they are online looking for event X and run across your site... they will start to be conditioned to use your site to list their events.

In any and every online venture the magic key is end user traffic.

Sounds like you have a very specific niche. I would be using Instagram and say FaceBook, and Twitter to be self branding ( your website ) client events that are currently listed on your site.

To make this clearer. you would look at events for Friday... you would create a post or image about the event Date and time perhaps and then call to action would be to click the link ( to your site ) for more details. make sense?

I have lots of ideas but I won't bore you with those.

Sending emails should not be burdensome, are
you using an autoresponder system?

Your event website's purpose is unclear to me.

Are you booking events, hosting events, or just
advertising events. How are you monetizing?

Are you promoting virtual events, because it
seems that you are limiting yourself.

There are several ways to monetize your site
with affiliate offers for webinar services and
other related products.

And I hate to point this out, but there are some
glaring typos in your post. You need to make
sure that you are able to proofread your work,
especially if sending emails and developing
websites.

Clients expect a high level of professionalism
and overlooking things like this can have a
negative impact on your business.

1 way to get more traffic is to repurpose your content .

Another way of doing it is by boosting a few of your post .
