How to Sell Listings on a Directory Website with Little or No Traffic

Here at Ideal Directories, one of the concerns we hear from people looking to start their own business directory website is: How will I sell listings on my site when I’m just starting out and I don’t have a lot of website traffic?

That’s a legitimate concern….but an easy one to overcome. Here’s what you can do if a potential advertiser asks you about the traffic your getting to your site:

First, acknowledge that you don't have a lot of traffic, but talk about your traffic goals.

Next, discuss your plans to market the site, including anything and everything you're considering doing.

Make sure you highlight the fact that your current pricing reflects the fact that you don't have a ton of traffic - and offer to lock your clients into your introductory rate.

Finally, it's important to recognize that people don't just buy into your site – they buy into YOU. Speak to them about your passion for the community and helping small businesses flourish.

Don't let the concern of selling listings on a site that's brand new stop you from getting started now.
