You can direct that audience towards your webshop; problem is that they are probably not going to buy your shoes.
- jerrre 6y agoThis story was 2 years ago but I just made a simple 1 page landing page for a product idea with just the first things that came to mind for describing the problem and solution. I have no SEO or copywriting expertise at all. After making Google Index it it just got traffic in a couple of months, now still having 2-3k views/mo.
