How to reach the youth?

Question

My friend is starting this new outreach page for youths and young adults to inform them about std's, pregnancy, relationships, it's also a page where they can get moral support and advice during hard times.

This is a myspace page, so she does not know how to reach the youth to get them to check out her page, any ideas?

Answer 1

identify first your goals.. make sure you know a lot about what you're trying to do.. you may simply join an organization or tie up with them..

Answer 2

Use the my space profile and invite tools for starters,consider joining a banner exchange if you can figure out how to put a banner on my space, go to a few message bds that have lots of teen traffic and post an invitation, go to www.tripod.com and make a simple "front page" inviting ppl to your site and then use the tripod promotion tools to promo both sites,  send press releases by email to local and not so local papers and radio stations inviting people to visit the site, contact LIFE centers etc and let them know about the page.

Answer 3

well if you had some way to send out a mass e-mail or something like that, that could draw a lot of attention. but there are already a lot of sites that help with stiff like that, so there might be some tuff competition.

Answer 4

Maybe find a local or national celeb that the kids like and start iviting people to your myspcae page also maybe you can partner up with another youth org and ask them to put you on thier resource list
