I started BestOnlineMarketing.com in hopes to share with the world a resource site to help you find the best ways to market whatever it is you want to market online.
In 2008, I moved to Los Angeles to pursue his career in the entertainment business as an actor and producer (check out my film company). The one thing holding me back was my desire to help the family business grow (Nexcar; a pre-owned car dealership based in Houston, Tx). An agreement was made with my older brother, the CEO, that I would help in any way remotely from LA while pursuing “side jobs” to pay the bills.
As you know 2008 was a bad year for the automotive industry as well as many others. Nexcar had little to no web presence at the time. I took it upon myself to see what could be done to increase sales by improve traffic on their website.
After hours of research, learning html and all that other SEO (search engine marketing) stuff, I managed to find ways to get Nexcar on the TOP results of Google’s organic and now local results. These rankings can really help make or break a business. The proof was in the ringing! The phones started to ring more, people started making more appointments online and I found a niche that I had never thought I could find.
The results based on Alexa.com’s ranking tool:
Before the site makeover and seo tactics, Nexcar was rated 19,000,000 among all websites worldwide
At its peak, Nexcar was ranked under 500,000* Globally and 100,000* among US sites.
Best of all, I got to quit doing promo jobs and other side gigs to make ends meet. My schedule became flexible so I could go to auditions during the day and work on producing my film projects.
One thing I wish I had was a place where I could discover all of the necessary tools to do what I did but in one simple place. That’s why I started BestOnlineMarketing.com. I want to help others find the best tools, read the best tips, and save money in the process.
I’ve spent thousands of dollars, yep it’s true THOUSANDS of dollars trying to figure this stuff out! I’ve read countless marketing books, watched many “how to” videos, attended seminars, and basically lived marketing for 3 years…
Now, I’m here to post the best of what I’ve learned in my experience as well as share information from the public with our forum. There will be posts from experts in certain niche fields as well as recommendations from public votes.
Feel free to post a comment or resource to share on the site!
