aFreeGo.com is a very large and very popular web site, and our goal is to help developers effectively promote their software to as many potental customers as possible.

Now, you've got your software listed on aFreeGo.com ... does that mean you will start selling more copies of your software ? You will probably find that this is the case. aFreeGo.com receives hundreds of thousands of unique visitors every month, and some of them are looking for software which does just what your software is designed to do.

However, just listing your software on aFreeGo.com is not making the most of our site. The site has over 30,000 pages, and you don't want your software to be just one more page among more than 30,000 pages. You need to make it stand out somehow. We have provided lots of ways to make your software stand out to one degree or another. Some of these ways are free, and some you have to pay for ... but we have kept our advertising costs low, so that our advertising options are affordable to as many developers as possible.

We have authors who spend thousands of dollars advertising with us, because it is profitable for them to do so. You can start advertising your software on aFreeGo.com for less than $1 a weekas little as What are you waiting for ?...

Keywords - A Golden Opportunity
 

Keywords can be a gold mine !! Are you making them work for you and your software ?

Thousands of people visit aFreeGo.com every day, and use the Search box (at the top left of all pages on aFreeGo.com) to find what they are looking for. The normal search results list all software that matches the search term used, from all categories on aFreeGo.com. Some searches produce hundreds of pages of search results ... how many visitors do you think are going to wade through hundreds of pages of results to find your software ? Most visitors might look through a handful of pages of results at most.

Normal results look like this :

    

Now, wouldn't it be nice if you could guarantee that your software would appear on the first page of search results ? It sure would ... and we can do that for you quite easily ...

And, wouldn't it be even better if your search result was not only near the top of the page, but also highlighted, to draw the visitors eye ? Yep, we can do that to as part of our standard aFreeGo Keyword setup.

Keyword results appear at the top of the search results and look like this :

    

You pick the keyword, and for less than $1 a week we will associate that keyword with your software so that when a visitor searches on that keyword, your software listing appears. We don't charge you per click ... it could get 1000 clicks a day and you still only pay the same flat rate. We don't charge you per impression ... it could be displayed 10,000 times per day and you still only pay the same flat rate.

I can hear you asking ... "How do I know which search terms are popular, so that I can pick a good one ?". Well, that's easily done too !! Simply point your browser to our Search Terms page and check out the top 200 most popular keywords at this moment in time.

How do you get on the first page of results ? Well, aFreeGo Keywords are sold on a "first in, first served" basis, so you know that you are always going to at least maintain your original position - it may actually improve over time if others decide not to renew their keywords. There may be multiple authors who have all purchased the same keyword, but a single search results page on aFreeGo.com displays 25 results, so if you are in the first 25 results for a keyword then your software listing is displayed on the first page of results.

Follow these steps now :
1) Choose a keyword that is relevant to your software
2) If you like, check it for popularity on our Search Terms page
3) Perform a seach using your chosen keyword (by typing it into the Search box at the top left of any page on aFreeGo.com ... but don't type it on this page otherwise you will lose your spot on this page ... OK, click this link first and do your search on the new page that opens)

On the Search Results page that appears, are there any highlighted listings like the one in the image above ? If not then you will be the first to purchase that keyword ... and therefore you will be first on the page of search results for that keyword, for as long as you maintain your keyword.

OK, so there are some highlighted listings for that keyword ? How many ? Are there less than 25 ? In that case, you will still be on the frst page if you purchase now ...

We have made it simple and straightforward to order your keyword(s) ... yes you may buy more than one keyword for your software.
Follow this link through to the aFreeGo Keyword Order page for more details.

We have authors who spend thousands of dollars advertising with us, because it is profitable for them to do so. What are you waiting for ?... spend less than $1 a week and start getting your software in the spotlight. Place an order for Place an Order for your aFreeGo Keyword(s) now.
