Product Description

Product Description

Just building a world-class web site doesn't mean people will come flocking through your door - web sites must be promoted to be successful. Getting Hits gives the lowdown on how to build up the hits on your web site - a guidebook to the entirely new processes of advertising and publicizing that comprise promotion on the web. Topics covered include: posting your site to a search engine; links that give the biggest hits; guerrilla marketing strategies; producing hits offline; creating your own web campaign; and keeping visitors coming back to your site.

Hi Don,I'm writing this from Cleveland, Ohio at 6:30 AM on 3/20/97. I purchased a copy of your book "Getting Hits" at CompUSA yesterday and started reading it last night. You know, just get in a few pages before sacking out. Well, I just put it down, because I finished it. Wow! I'm pretty leery of printed material involving the Internet (other than magazines) due to the 'Nets fluid dynamics, but you did a great job of providing relevant information with sources that can be used for updates. Excellent piece of work.Not only did your book provide confirmation of things I knew or suspected, it gave me some new perspectives on them in addition to "stuff" I didn't know, but do now <:) Thanks.Craig A. Getty

5.0 out of 5 stars I read the whole book through and felt it was very good., 2 Aug 1999
By A Customer
This book for me was a big help. First it explains how the search engines work. It gave an overview of each one and how they look for websites. One of the chapters was about How to get quality links. I really enjoyed this book. I highly recommend it if you are interested in promoting your site and you haven't figured out how to get listed in the main search engines.

1.0 out of 5 stars unreadable!, 4 May 1999
By A Customer
I bought sixteen books on Internet Marketing and Web Design in the last four months, and this is the only one I couldn't finish. The style is plodding and dull, and the content offers nothing unique.

If you want a book on promoting your Web site, buy Greg Helmstetter's book, Increasing Hits & Selling More on Your Web Site instead.

1.0 out of 5 stars Getting know where, 25 Mar 1999
By A Customer
It sucked. It tells you the same stuff you already know, submit to search engines bla bla, super basic, no secrets or anything like that, you'll find your self skipping pages tell you get to the end of the book. He knows allot about the web, but not much about getting hits.

2.0 out of 5 stars I bought, I read, I cried. But first, I cursed.
This book sure doesn't do anything to help in the unification of Europe and it sure didn't help me. I suppose the stars and the moon weren't in correct allignment. I'm a lunatic.
