My funky way to advertise:


I put a window decal at the back of my truck -one of my funky websites:
here is the picture:

Good Karma To You • View topic - Good Karma Truck and BS truck

Heck, called me crazy but what have I got to lose?

People are so nice to see that sticker. I got tons of traffic and even people taking photos.

yep my old van has vegetarian.net.au + insured.net.au + Unusual News plastered all over the windows

no such thing as bad advertising and the back of a car is a great way to be seen at the traffic lights while waiting

good luck

It is a good idea. I was approached by a marketing group about using my
truck for a full body wrap ad. Based on my vehichle, my daily traveled
routes, place of work, places I park and times of day, driving record
and a couple other thigs that escape me I maxxed out each category and
was quoted $700 to $1K a month. Paid to me to sport a full 360 degree
ad wrap.... bbwwahh.

The one thing that killed the deal for me was .... I would have to give
up my vannity plates. I had to say no. DOH!

I'm going to test it with some of my names once I have my portfolio site
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=591675
set up and some vinyl graphics done. Anyone want to test it (free)?

Since I have got nothing to lose and they are not commercial sites, so why not give a good laugh to others who got sucked in the traffic.

My sites traffic have gone up and so are the t-shirts sales. Someone even want to trademark my logos.

Good idea..... anybody with a decent car and a decent website should do the same thing.

I have thought about it myself. Got a bright yellow sports car whch would generate some attentin if i had a site URL down the side of it..

Its a great way to promote anything that is very local to your area. Most contractors in my area have some sort of website.

There are tons of ways to promote your site. I like the idea of the stickers though, whatever traffic you can get, right?

But you must get a sale if you have so much traffic on your site. If your selling something that people wants, then you must get a sale,

This is a really good strategy to advertise your site locally without any cost. Working and advertising at the same time, good idea.

The 2 stickers I made for the truck only cost $20 and I have already made 1000X more money on that.

Looks very interesting. but I won't say that funny. It is actually quite intelligent of you to use that space. We must also cultivate our thoughts to find out and explore new ways to advertise.

To me , it is funny, that why I am making fun of all those websites.
99.999% of blogs and sites are full of BS and tweeter is full of senseless yakking

I am glad I got that domain name and that how I express via domains.

Someone offered big bucks for that name.

Anyway, what have I got to lose?
