Question
I create Wikipedia pages for clients on popular freelance websites and have been quite successful with nearly 100 5-star feedback reviews as well as an overall 5 star rating... however, these freelance websites charge me 10-20% of the revenue depending on each site. Although I have started a basic pricing page on my own website, I'm not sure how to take it to market as this is a very specific niche - simply using Google or Facebook ads will not be that useful. Companies, individuals, products or topics eligible for Wikipedia are the ones with some kind of news coverage or references from published books, magazines etc. Any advice, on a general approach or marketing strategy (ads targeting etc?) and marketing venues that can be used would be appreciated.
Answer
People already having a Wikipedia page do make a small portion of my target market as they some times have edits / updates for their pages without violating Wikipedia policies or new pages for companies or products but mainly I am looking for new notable clients that do not yet have a Wikipedia page. This would maximize the jobs per client apart from the fact that my major service is creation of new Wikipedia pages. I agree linked in ads might be a way.. The issue is that they would also go to irrelevant or new companies without media coverage. Is there a way to get to only the companies that have already had media coverage? Perhaps budding celebrities (but not limited to a single niche) as well. What would be the best way to reach out optimally to such a target group?
