Post the site here.

One of my friend's is a golfer and I showed him the site. Who knows how many he showed?

Start with word of mouth advertising. Then work in some slight spam(forum sigs, email sigs, ect...). Then start linking up with bigger sites in your general intrest.

Well its not optimized very well, the title of your page is Home. I doubt any search engine will pick it up. Also you may want to consider hosting outside of homestead.

Thanks for the feed back. As you can see I’m not familiar with building a web-site. I’ll go back to homestead and make changes. Thank you again I really appreciate your help.

I'm gonna agree with InnoGlobal. Your site has no optimization techniques employed. Start with descriptive title tags and add descriptions to your image alt tags. That helps, but the best way to build traffic is to simply have other people in your area of interest link to you, and you link back

Give the guy some credit. He's trying. He's far more ahead than most people who just have ideas in their head and just talk about how they wanna get rich everyday.

littlefiestas, you gotta good site, if you don't have HTML/Web skills yourself, I would recommend trying to find a web development company in India. There are 10's of thousands. I got my entire site built with 1 company if you want a referral. You'll also pay a fraction with them compared to what you will pay with these web developers in USA ($2500+, rip off!)

Looks like a local here, I live in Studio City.

Basically just try word of mouth, you can get some cheap business cards from www.vistaprint.com, hand them out to family and friends and have them see if anyone is interested.

The site is a bit basic, but I would just submit it with a brief article to blogs or other sites that deal with tattoos and the like and maybe one of them will post it. Also, never used this site but apparently it has free advertising www.payeh.org. Hope that helps =/

I checked out the site, its not the worse design in the world, but could do with a bit more information possibly. Just do a search on google and u will find mounds of info on this kinda thing. Even searching through this forum will yield loads of info.

This thread alone has some good tips from akula and n-james:

Best ways to advertise?
