  • Marina Dolcic: You wouldn`t, you use Google Ads or something else. SEO takes months to show results
  • Rick Smith: Marina Dolcic thanks for the advice. I guess I meant SEM. Google Ads is a good option.
  • Andrew Halliday: Facebook ads to wealthy individual etc
  • Sam Mah: If you know where the wealthy buyer`s hangouts, target that platform. Otherwise, it`s a waste of money and effort.
  • Ammon Johns: Quick is always about PPC (Adwords) as you can have the slot live almost immediately, while anything else has to be crawled and indexed in Google`s own sweet time.
  • Jobin John: Let`s assume you own and want sell the Mona Lisa painting, for this SEO won`t help however other marketing strategies can help such as:

    1. Outreach: Collect contacts of high net worth prospects in your area and send invitation/proposal. Contact art auction houses, galleries to collect contacts or just search for people who bought similar art work.

    2. Hire an popular art gallery to showcase your art piece.

    3. Newspaper Ads, Radio ads Article in news sites like Huffington Post, Forbes etc. can help. Send an invitation to journalists and invite them to write a column about the art piece if the piece has some story behind it, it would definitely help.

    4. If it`s expensive and unique then don`t waste time on social media or PPC instead join FB art groups and Reddit communites and post a pic in these groups. Remember, don`t post a sales ad, just post an pic of the piece with a text like, thinking about selling this piece of history, what do you guys think?

    5. You can even sell it in a premium art auction but make sure you know about the commission charged by them and about the type of contacts these guys have. Someone bought a taped banana for a lot of money in an auction so anything is possible.

    6. Very important. Once you sell it, remember I am your best friend in whole wide world who helped you out so send me some of that gold.

    All the best.

  • Abbas Ali: SEO is the wrong channel for this, unless you`re regularly selling art. FB Ads and traditional offline methods are better suited.
  • David Gizzarelli: Google is worthless. Don’t use Google.
