Limo.ca - Picked up this category killer!

Does it get any natural traffic?

Limos.ca looks like a limo directory run by N49.
 
Great pickup Adam. Best of luck with it.
 
I know for a fact that many black car companies are shelling out hundreds, and sometimes, thousands of $$ monthly to get listed.

This is true of almost any commodity product. They're all offering the same thing at the same price, and at the end of the day, it's the company who can best market themselves that wins.

Adam, if I were you, I would build a very mobile-friendly version of the site to accommodate on-the-go bookings. I have a feeling that a very good percentage of users will find this to be beneficial.

Then, you can use that as a selling point, or perhaps command a higher listing fee to the limo companies.

There is absolutely no need to design "mobile-friendly version" bs, since every biz person on the move has either iPhone or Blackberry.
It seems that the 'mobi' crowd doesn't know iPhone. Or is it Jack? :smilewinkgrin:

Developing an app would be very costly, and is unnecessary when the functionality can easily be attained through the browser.

Any iPhone or BlackBerry user would agree that it's easier to go to limo.ca to book a limo, rather than to download the app, figure out how to use it, and then, hopefully, book a limo.
 
Congrats. Very nice site and affiliate program. Can I ask you if it's PPC, PPL (pay per lead), or PPS (pay per signup)?

Anyone know how to do something similar involving real estate listings or health products & services?



This site is live and has just a couple more tweaks then it's done.

Feedback welcome.

Pay Per sale.

It's a little busy for my liking. A very sleek layout that's perfect for capturing leads is called AIDA at themeforest - http://themeforest.net/item/aida-ajax-paper-landing-page/145917

A couple of other qualms I have with it are that the header says "Limo Service Worldwide", and when I click on "Reserve now", it starts telling me about the best limos in the United States. Based on your site map at the bottom, I can tell you're targeting an exclusively Canadian audience, which should be expected for a site built around a .ca domain.

Otherwise, I think you're on the right track. The name is memorable, and should be very easy to market.

PM me about this. I recently started a real estate site as well, and perhaps we can work together.
 
Is the phone number/s assigned to you specifically as an affiliate? What if people call and book on phone, do you get the credit for the lead?
 
Hmm...is this the record breaker?

sneaky, sneaky.
 
you need a logo
by just having the logo as text, the top third of page looks like a parked page imo and i bet your bounce rate is high

do something better with the header i think. a nice logo and tagline layout make look more professional
brand this puppy up, deserves more
you need a logo anyway for marketing
rest of site is nice
great name, nice site, will do well imo
