    Hi,

    Me and a partner started a website around 6 months ago (the one in my signature). It is running pretty good now and already making some money.

    What is the next step to do?

    Any help on what to do to grow it bigger?

    Thanks,

    You should try to give out some review to gain more reputation.

    Do SEO - try to rank high for your keywords (e.g. check backlinks).

    Working on SEO, and we've got some good listings already, always room for improvement though.

    Any tips on how to get more exposure without the search engines?

    That is a good option. Investing money back in the website for extra exposure! We are already doing that. What about extra features?? What would you want to see on the website?

    Time to write some content in the form of articles and distribute them across the web to build backlinks. Looks like you know a little something about this because you have backlink checking website. right?

    Google loves content and backlinks. Why not get the best of both worlds with Article Marketing?

    Build website Authority within your niche. Build a "Strong Name" with your domain in its niche too.

    Try a few Press Releases as well. I love them, so does Google! You might like them as well if you give it a shot.

    Next step is to think how you could get yourself out of the equation. How can you automate your business? Which tasks can you outsource and make more money because you can focus on growing your business bigger? Theres tons of creative ways to automate your business so that you and your partner doesn't need to keep monitoring it. The more serious you get with your money making online, the more money your going to make!

    Great to hear that your already making money!

    Just keep putting hard work in, start a new website, start getting more traffic using article directories and keep growing page rank until you get to the #1 page of google, then rinse and repeat.
