I think so, it'd give you awareness.Wow its been almost a month since my last post. I have added the blog and whats up i just need to wait for my developer to link it to the main sneakercount website. I currently have 1300 followers on instagram and 130 on twitter. Slowly growing. I have added the blog but it doesnt bring in people like i hoped. Currently been stealing ads from craigslist to post on my site and writing blog articles. There are some "sneaker" conventions or trade shows coming up. Would it make a big difference for me to go to on? What should i do there?
You're in an uber niche market. MALE shoe collecting. How many guys out there do you think are even collecting shoes on the level your site is doing? I think I know one guy who will spend $300 for a pair of Jordan's, but that's a maybe. So your target US market may only be in the thousands of people. Since a business really requires either scale (the number of people) or magnitude (the size of the affect on each consumer), you need to be maximizing the magnitude and trying to get the entire consumer niche market onto your site. If there isn't an online forum for it... adding that community could also help.
A less niche market would be an ecommerce store for big brand shoes. You could use the same framework and become a distributer. Just food for thought.
