Website Exposure Program

Mill City Press is now offering a service designed to increase visitor traffic to your website.

Traffic to your website is increased in three different ways:

The first feature of the Website Exposure Program is submission of your website's domain name to at least 70 major search engines and directories. What you may not realize is that though something may exist online, its existence does not guarantee that it will be generated in search engine results. Most search engines have "spiders" that "crawl" the internet for information, newest or most-often-viewed information ranking the highest in results. Some search engines require submission of a domain name before it will be found and crawled. Why don't we simply submit the domain name to the major search engines? The reason for this is that many of the major search engines use the smaller ones to do the crawling for them. Further, the more search engines and web directories that know about your website, the greater the chance it has of being found by a user.

The second feature of this program is at least 10,000 unique visitors directed to your website. How can we guarantee such a number, and how can they all be unique? Because high traffic volume factors into a website's rankings, many online companies have begun offering traffic that you can pay for. We have partnered with a company to offer you this new facet of online marketing. Based on general categories that would be relevant to your book and website, internet users are funneled through different search engines and expired domain names to your website. We can know if the users are repeat visitors based on an internet location code--those visitors are not counted in the final talley. (Feel free to email us--we know this can sound confusing!)

The third feature is also an interesting development in online marketing. Another aspect affecting search result rank is where you have links offered to and from your website. If the sites your site is linked to are high traffic, visible websites, then it will not only increase the number of people coming to your site through those other sites, but it will increase the rank your website receives in search engine results--just from being connected to these other popular sites. We find prominent bloggers willing to feature your website and book on their blog, and you get some great promotion for you and your book.

Have you had a home run yet?

As an unpublished writer (fiction) I figure I have one shot at breaking out. And all of the packages I've seen (both here and at iUniverse) are too cookie-cutter to suit me.

I've been looking at assembling a team of designers and consultants, but, frankly, I can't find the people I want.

Do you have any flexibility (for a price, of course) in how you approach individual authors? For example, the design of pages themselves is exceedingly important to me. Also, I would just about die if there are any errors whatsoever in my published book.

Money is less of an object to me than is the opportunity to produce (and market) an extraordinary book.

Which brings me back to my original question. Have you hit a home run yet? And perhaps more important, do you want to?
