Bitcoin Forum

Hey Guys:

I am new to this business and willing to understand how people advertise their crypto websites or business or any opportunities?

Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

Many thanks in advance.

You're advertising cryptocurrency to a community and of course you will not just like going to advertise it somewhere without the target right? and the best way to promote a cryptocurrency with a lot of niches are here in the forum, there are different ways in order to promote it here:

1. Challenges/Tasks - it's up to you how creative you are on doing some tasks and at the same time promoting the project or cryptocurrency to the community. An example is puzzle solving, riddles, etc.
2. Giveaways - A good example is the partnership of cloudbet and krogothmanhattan. krogothmanhattan is known for giving free physical bitcoins daily and now he have a partnership with cloudbet by giving a denarium that is loaded with bitcoin and in result there are a lot of traffics for cloudbet.
3. Bounty - Where in you will need a big amount of in order to reward all the users who will going to participate in your bounty, there are different parts of a bounty campaign
• Signature campaign
• Transalation
• Twitter & Facebook
• Telegram
• Blog and Creating video content
• Etc. (Depends on you on where platform you want to promote it)

So far here are the things I know on how and where to promote your cryptocurrency.

yes i agree on this and advertising of your crypto is not easy.. do alot of work the best way is you need bounty program..giveaways. task. hire some people to promote your crypto..

First thing first, you should make a good product before advertising it. After that, you can either advertise here or to the masses through mainstream media like Cointelegraph etc, but of course you need money to do this.

But just for precaution, it is hard to determine how effective your advertisement (either on this forum or mainstream media) will be. So don't throw away your money continuously, make sure to have a fixed budget for advertising and if that budget runs out but you still have small customers, probably you should start updating your product then.

Probably a decent example is looking at those Legendary or Hero accounts who participates in bounty campaigns. You could learn a thing or two on how they advertise a certain cryptocurrency. You could start from that or watch blogs in youtube.

making advertisements is indeed quite complicated, but quite helpful so that many people who know, must be brave capital and serious effort

You can buy some advertising space on crypto website or other website that have same topic as yours. You can also go to advertise website such as coinzilla or etc. Most of people think this is pretty effective, or just buy advertising on social media such as facebook, i think they still accept crypto ads.

You can also do campaign or bounty in this forum such as people above said.

You can advertise here in the forum through buying a forum ad slot for certain amount of days. You can join bidding and just make sure that you are reading all the details and information including the rules.

Advertising in some social networks is forbidden, so advertising your website is not so easy. If we talk about free advertising options, then the best option is forums.

try seo for your crypto advertising because most of the ppc advertising doesn't accept crypto advertising.

Since Google banned crypto related ads people have to find alternative ways to advertise. People above mentioned few good methods to do that. Signature campaigns, bounties, buying ad slots if you want to advertise on Bitcointalk. Some crypto related websites can publish sponsored article if you will pay them. Probably easiest and most effective way - try crypto advertising networks - http://www.bitcoins4free.ml/overview-bitcoin-advertising-networks/ If you know your target audience, you can reach very good results with this method.
And I almost forgot - if your website is crypto related, you can post announcement of it here on Bitcointalk - it doesn't cost anything to do that and you guaranteed to get some visitors. All other methods of advertising methods requires bigger or smaller budget.

The best advertising is for you to make an announcement thread in a section pertaining to your business/opportunity/whatever.  Let users try it out and spread the word.  It is free, easily shared, and effective.

Another popular method is signature campaigns, where you give x amount of BTC to a 3rd party to hold and pay users who wear a signature advertisement.

Most common methods are defined in second post of this topic but also I have 3 uncommon with examples :
I see flyers in streets when I visited Barcelona this summer. Most of flyers are around some cryptoshops and places that are related with crypto trades available.
Another advertisement method is appearing in a movie scene for a few seconds. This is a little bit expensive but a strong method for someone who is interested with coins.
Also using social media popular crypto guys/girls has another stronger effect much more than social media bounties.
Methods are above uncommon because you need to work on it a little bit more than the common ways and you need a little bit more money I mean fiat for them.

Most advertising I've seen is through forums instead of conventional ad networks.

Does anyone know ad networks specializing in crypto content?

I'm pretty sure that Facebook has banned crypto related ads just as Google has? It happened a bit less than year ago, if I'm not mistaken. So any paid ads will not go through on Facebook and some other social media websites anymore, so I guess that makes it a bit harder to reach the target audience via social media now.

Well said and there is hardly much that one can add to this list cryptocurrency advertising is vast.
Referral is also a form of advertising in cryptocurrency where one individual gets to refer other

You can see my signature, this is a function to promote a project or a business of a company or individual. If you intend to promote your business then you can choose the signature campaign as a way, if you are interested, please active in this subforum https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=52.0 to find a manager and another party to run and promote the products that you have.

At the service section of this forum you can contact good manager and agree on with them to promote your website,  services or betting site through signatures campaigns.  I think that is the most easy way of bringing your project or website into limelight.

I would suggest starting by building a community. Whether it be cryptocurrencies or a regular business, success doesn't usually appear overnight. Behind every overnight success is years of unseen hard work. If you're providing useful services, information or content with real value to people, they will naturally spread the word for you. First, grow your inner circle of diehard fans, then they will tell their friends or people that may be in need of the same service.

After all, how much can you really advertise as one person? But if you grow your user base, they will act as free advertisers on your behalf, allowing you to create more useful content.

Hi, there are many different ways and instruments how to advertise crypto projects. The key point is to choose the most effective strategy and implement it... Many projects are being advertised without clear goal, so they fail. Think before do ::)

Yes, having a strategy means having a clear goal in which you can base your strategy on how or where to advertise and when is the best time. As you have stated about projects without clear goal failed is very true. If you have a project then what is the purposenof your project then you can think of your GOAL afterwards.

If you business is already existing and you want to gain traffic, this site is the best place to seek for advertisement.
One of the popular method is the "signature campaign", we have good campaign managers here and in relation to rates, you can find that information in this thread  Overview of Bitcointalk Signature-Ad Campaigns. (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=615953.0)

List are updated, you can use it to analyze on how successful running a signature campaign, so far there are still active campaigns and we have
a lot of campaigns in the list that are running for over a year already, so it's not only during the starting period, it's also to maintain advertising and they will not be doing that if they are not getting a good return from signature campaign advertising.

I guess you got lot of suggestions here for places whether you can advertise. But before advertising the first thing that is needed to taken care is to find out where is your target audience lies( off course, I assume you have created a good product). Whether it more on Reddit or in Bitcointalk or so on. Secondly, make yourself aware of the platform before advertising in it. If require, hire some professional.

Get yourself a decent domain name and hosting
Build a site describing your product(s) - it's easier than you'd think using responsive templates or CMS.
Put a reference to your site in your signature here.
Become an active member of the community, and make sure that you only make good quality posts to build your reputation.

Profit is very essential when it comes to advertisement,and if you'll be advertising on the forum,you will have to put in alot to set up your signature as well as paying the forum to advertise your products and services.
But if it's an altcoin you're trying to advertise,you will have to start up an ICO projects and get forum members to advertise for you on their signature space.
In all you'll have to consider what you stand to benefit from it

Hey, I do agree with the previous comments, before starting the advertising of the project, you should definitely have clear KPI. What would you like to achieve?!

Coming to light, people should get to know about your project, and vitally you have to build trust with your project, in order to get any results. Here is an interesting article about Building Trust. I hope it might be quite handy for you: https://medium.com/cointraffic/the-secrets-to-trustworthy-branding-in-crypto-6ebf6928b8cf

Planning any campaign, DO NOT concentrate only on one marketing tool, as it might not work as you expect. What I mean here is a clear strategy (clear marketing plan) that will cover all the layers of the marketing funnel. And again, something interesting to read: https://medium.com/cointraffic/love-at-first-14-sights-fcadde5dddab

Open for any negotiations :) and good luck with the advertising.
