Bitcoin Forum

Hi all,

I am wondering where do you advertise your ICO projects? Do you use bitcointalk forum or other mediums like Facebook Ads or Google Ads?

Is there anyone with experience in this subject? I want to know what is the best (cost effective) medium to promote ICO.  ::) ::) ::)

I have no experience in this, but to advertise ICO, bitcointalk forums are the solution by using gifts or in other ways at the appropriate cost.

Depending on your target audience. Google is very expensive. Facebook is mostly inneficient, but cheap. Signature campaings are good because they reach the people who are interested. Twitter has to many false accounts.

Airdrops are fine to create awareness.

signature campaigns on a bitcoin or crypto related forum are i think the best way to promote and advertise your ico because mostly the members of those forums are crypto related and will likely drive a traffic and investments to your site and ico rather than any other known methods like google ads and facebook ads because these two were not or cant directly target the right person to be attracted to your company. you can inquire or hire a campaign manager at marketplace>services section in order for you to get started.

This forum is itself one of the cost effective advertising promotion medium. ICO developers use bitcointalk forum to spread their project ads by starting social media bounty and signature campaigns. There are numerous members in this forum who have 50,000-70,000 followers on their different social media profiles. Such profiles are really helpful in spreading word to thousands in a single share

Try to do bounty and signature campaign. It is the most efficient and cost-effective way to do your marketing. Also, this forum is the best for marketing in everything that involves cryptocurrency.

If you have enough money. Do a social media campaign. Social media platform offers more target audience. Doing a signature campaign here in this forum can also help your marketing.

Thank you for your help, do you know any marketing agencies which could help me with campaign?

Don't look anywhere, Some of the members here in this forum are the best in doing marketing and campaigns. Just look for the one that fits your needs.

I guess that bitcointalk is best place to give that service. Doing pr and creating global media trend. Youtube and Steem are 2 other great platforms to use advertising. Brings more customers.

People are kind of lazy nowdays and like video over text. But there is still a geeration that would rather have written content. Don´t ignore them-

You're in the forum and as you can see signature campaign is one of the most effective way of advertising your ICO project. This forum has been made by satoshi so there are tons of members here that are into crypto's investing / trading.

Facebook sponsorship is also a good boost, if you have enough budget you can do both.

As an addition, you can also have social media campaign's or article writing / review writing about your ICO.

bounties program is the right answer for you, you can see it here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=238.0
because in bounty everything is available, starting from signature campaign (in this forum), social media, content campaign (blog and youtube), translator (for local community) and other campaign.
so you only allocate your token for this program and you can plan it with your bounty manager.

It think that the audience is much better targeted by this forum than anywhere else. Twitter and Facebook are like throwing pamphlets on the air.

You can use bitcointalk bounty programs and Facebook ads targeting specific keywords related to your project. FB has millions of users and it is very effective

Strange but true, is it not? I never really liked bounty campaigns, and are getting even more sick of them with each growing week. But if you look at ICOs, the most successful ones had the best marketing campaigns, and this especially includes good bounties. Even the best bounty hunters with thousands of supporters outreach will not look at a bounty if it is too little. And where else but on this forum? I checked out other forums and whatever they have, BCT has it first. And what BCT has, not every forum has.

Any good mixing services out there? Also, I have read bout some transaction acceleration services... are they technically possible and effective?

Every day we finds more ICOs in the market. Recently there are many smart contracts project are initializing the ICO project in the marketplace. Since the more number of same kind of project comes to the market at same time. All the projects are not getting successful bro.
All time hit space projects are trading, exchange, mixing and gambling project. More they need to advertisement for long time since they want boom in the market and stands for long time.

For advertising, anouncing and promoting a project or an ICO had a seperate section or threads for it on this forum it is located at Bitcointalk forum > Economy > marketplace > service announcements and also at Bitcointalk forum > alternative cryptocurrencies > marketplace > bounty announcement. Using these threads in anouncing different bounty campaigns helps once user to easily see whats your promoting or anouncing.
One of the best campaign i saw on these thread is the DANEEL.io its an AI(Artificial intelligence) assistant that has been developed and created to guide, assist and help investors in this cryptoworld.
Bounty name : [BOUNTY-NEW][ICO] 🤖 Daneel.io: The 1st A.I Created To Help Crypto Investors

I think Facebook is over-rated regarding Crypto campaigns. Also, they have recently banned the add related to crypto I believe. Anyway, is just silly to launch a campaign in Facebook as most people don´t have too many friends interested in cryptos.

You can post on the cryptocurrency related pages and groups that maybe very important than the friendlist of Facebook account.
And Facebook is not the only social media twitter is the most better media to promote the ICO than Facebook because more cryptocurrency users follows twitter for the regular updates.
But the ICO team need to promote their projects in all the available ways attracte more investors.

You want to explore the crypto currency and get the more information means this forum is the right place as like that bitcoin users and investors are widely found here. Instead of using the Facebook campaigns to promote the project in the banned time on Facebook.
This is really awful idea. Hopefully signature campaigns and bounty signatures will be helpful and get the more people attracted to the project.

This forum has been the best medium for advertising ICOs i believe because the focus here is about cryptocurrency unlike in social media where there are a lot of topics that could be promoted and the only thing that social media has an edge is the number of users, but crypto enthusiasts are all here looking for good ico to invest. Next will be youtube for me because it's easier to understand the project in a video that demonstrates how it works while someone is explaining from the background.

Every project try to gather as many user attention initially. They usually look out for audience who are crypto related which they can find on forum sites like Bctalk and other forums. They either try to capture that with Bounty or simply press release on any of news sites.

IMO investing in only specific advertisement options ( like say press release, banners on crypto related sites etc. ) is very cost efficient but less effective than investing in a program packed up with multi-platform advertisement (say bounties) which is expensive but is most of the time effective.

bitcointalk mostly is the best

Indeed. Most of personal twitter and facebook accounts don't accept dummy/fake accounts as their friends or follower so advertising there is useless. While btctalk is where you can get more exposure because all of here are interested in crpytocurrencies.

My list will be
- bitcointalk ( because interest here focus on crypto)
- telegram ( active users on ICO channel can gives you an idea how much demand and support has been getting from the community the ICO is)
- Facebook/twitter (just simply there's a million of users there)
- youtube (easy to understand how the project works with videos)
- medium (last not but the least because serious crypto investors tend to read carefully most of the ICOs being posted there )

This is the main forum of all cryptocurrencies and there is a big wide exposure if a project will be advertised here.

Nowadays each ICO does have its telegram channel because its one of the best way to ask and give information to their participants.

Facebook is a good one even though they restricted paid advertising but every project can still their profile and facebook page for their ICO. Twitter is without a doubt does have a lot of crypto followers.

And also a tutorial on how to invest.

I haven't used medium yet but I've seen there are many people who are staying there too.

I think forum is the best medium to utilize and channelize the people towards investing in their ICO. It is indeed the boon for the ICO campaign team to use this ready platform where thy can do a signature campaign, twitter campaign, avatar campaign etc.

With graft I've seen them advertising first here in forum and was followed by facebook ads but facebook has stopped the sponsorship of advertisements so it can be a cross out already. And by also searching something on google their ad is also popping out on my screen so they are using google ads and the same goes with youtube.

in the issue of promotion you need complex solutions, advertising on the forum, advertising in social networks, a beautiful site and a detailed description of the project, public statements at seminars and conferences, you should show people that you have serious intentions

promotion of a new product on the market, it is always not an easy task, advertising on the forum and in social networks is the cheapest way of promotion, but perhaps not the most effective, if you want to promote your project, then you need to act in all directions, including in various public events and to speak on them

social media platforms that can connect all people in the world such as YouTube, Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, these people are also usually followed by many people. As more brands enter Influencer Marketing campaigns into their overall marketing strategy, many studies confirm that collaboration with social media influencers in the production, distribution and promotion of sponsored content is now one of the most powerful ways for brands to reach consumers

However, if we really think back. The average investor is coming from this forum may be able to reach 50% of all media into a promotional facility. and the other 5% are from other similar forum members.
Those who are users of social media, most of them are members of the forums, so the percentage of success for social media from all you mentioned is only 45%. That's my opinion.

based on my observations over the years, most of ICO fixed using Bitcointalk as the main media forum, but I have a new view regards promoting ICO, try to create an account "Producthunt", there you can promote products belonging to you...  :) ;)

Yes, i agree with you but social media is to get awareness about the project but actually, campaign helping the ICO campaign is Videos, Content Management, Medium Articles and Signature campaign. Bitcointalk is the most effective way to get more exposure to the project.

Facebook and Twitter are the best social medium you can used in promoting ico projects. However you may not reach your actual audience as many of the user has little knowledge on cryptocurrencies. Bitcointalk community is a cryptocurrencies community and most people here had interest in cryptocurrencies and that is why we are having more focus here. I think reddit and blog are also good ways or place you can promote your projects.

Technical myth I believe. If there is more number of ICO and crypto ads has been placed on twitter and facebook. ICO website may get the more number of views but investors you will not get at all.
If there is repuated project has been launched they mostly looking to get the token sale contribution from the forum. Because here all the people definitely know about the ICO analysis so they are well never miss good project at all.

Exactly, bitcointalk is the most effective way, for promotion through signature campaign people will get more awareness and exposure about their ICO, content management is also good to get various advertising and exposure to the company. Through social media, we can get awareness but at the same time team should focus on attending blockchain conferences.

All stocks is global marketing Platform may solved this issue https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3177904

I think the best and most effective place to advertise an ico is the bitcointalk forum, signature campaigns or crypto related forum because mostly the members of those forums are crypto related and will likely drive a traffic and investments to your sites and ico rather than using the social media platforms.

You are already on the best medium to advertise you ICO. Some alternatives are Social media sites like twitter , reddit , youtube and some blogging for reviews. You can also list on ICO rating sites to add more search results.

Bitcointalk helps to find community, same facebook, goggle (but don't forget they have banned ICO adds already)

If you want to find investors, you shall visit some summits or conferences. And banner ads networks. For example you can visit https://adcrypto.io/ so to understand what I mean.

it is true this forum is still the best because it is the users ICO is looking for information here and the development of ICO is here so no doubt this forum is still the best to be a marketing medium.

if in my opinion this can be seen in terms of what project when we will promote it, it could be the project is made for ads on facebook, and there are also on twetter and that will become the market prey is the friends or follower who is in our media.

The best marketing medium for ico campaign is the bitcointalk forum because you can get the attention of investors easily here as all crypto participant take part in this forum. Another marketing medium is the social media or any crypto related forum.

I advertise my ico in this bitcoin forum because I am following a bounty containing signatures and bounty sosmed,
for my signature to advertise in some parts of altcoin in this forum.
and for bounty sosmed I advertise it on Twitter or Facebook I just share it from ico's posts. I like this job.

If I think the capital is quite minimal and want to advertise. then use it via youtube and instagram. because people will see a lot through toutube and instagram. and will attract a lot of attention.
