When it comes promoting one’s website, it’s one thing which can’t be taken for granted. One of my bosses will always tell me; ‘Doing business without advertising is like standing in the dark and winking at a girl, you know what you’re doing but no one elses sees you.’
As Ryan rightly stated, commenting is one element which can’t in anyway be taken for granted and I just love doing that.

People are much more likely to check the URL out if they know it’s been created by someone who lives in their city. They just feel a greater sense of identification.
@Matt: Hi Matt, great to see you again. That’s a great tips from you! It is easy to invite people in our neighborhood to check out our sites due to the sense of identification. Before we go global, just go local and grow big 🙂
