I know it’s been quite a while since I last posted. Things have been very busy here the last couple months.
PortableChangingRoom.com is now approaching 2000 hits since we started it in June and sales have been continuing to be steady since. We are quite happy with the progress this new site has made so far. Ebay buy it now auctions have been very successful in the last month. We have completed several auctions so far with each auction doing better than the last.
Google just launched their payment system which some have compared to Ebay’s Paypal service. When I first heard about Google Checkout launching I decided to setup an account and test it out. I added the Google Checkout button to the order pages on PortableChangingRoom.com and today I just received my first order through the system.
We have now switched over our pay-per-click advertising to the new website and have begun to generate sales aleady. The website is already officially profitable!
I recently heard about a very innovative way to get links to your website for free and with minimal effort. As you may now getting links to your website is essential for boosting your website’s rank on search engines, as each incoming link acts a vote for your website.
The website is now complete with a shopping cart on a secure server to encrypt order information. We kept the web design simple and easy to navigate. Since the website is selling a single product, it doesn’t need to be complex.
We compiled a good-sized list of keywords related to the Pop Up Room and then tried different combinations of keywords to find our domain that we would use for the new website. We found that PortableChangingRoom.com was available and Portable Changing Room happens to be one of the top terms related to the Pop Up Room.
Over the last couple years I have realized that it is far easier to rank better on search engines with more focused niched-based website than a website with many different products, services or types of information on it. For example, it was far easier to get ChamplainCoffee.com to rank well for low acid coffee than it was to get JLRyan.com to rank well for the Pop Up Room.
Advantage Creations, a Burlington, Vermont based web development company, is pleased to announce the launch of PortableChangingRoom.com, a website for selling the new Pop Up Room in a Bag product that has been sold successfully on Advantage Creation’s JLRyan.com website for several months now.
