I am developing a web portal. It’s name is www.amikhabo.com. It is a restaurant and food related portal. This site name “amikhabo”, it is a Bengali word. It means is “I will eat”. Still the site is under construction.
My vision is – my site amikhabo.com is a fully restaurant and food related portal in Bangladesh. If anybody visits this site then he will get complete restaurant and food related any information of Bangladesh.
So I need some new idea so that I can popular my site.

Jay’s Answer: What is your business goal for the site – to get traffic and sell advertising? Or to sell for placement of the food-related information on your site?
Consider uploading the information about the restaurants (etc.) you’re doing for free (initially) – contact restaurants to get copies of their menus, and upload them to your site. Make sure you add necessary keywords and address information, tie-ing in to an online map (Yahoo or Google, for example). Also – allow people to comment on the restaurants, rate them, take pictures of them, etc. Make it a social site (like http://www.yelp.com/)
Once you get sufficient traffic, you’ll be eligible to add for-pay ads.
