I know you didn't ask for feedback on your site - but for SEO purposes - I'd recommend putting the search box + a few recommended events on the front page.
Additionally - I'd mess with the title tags to be more descriptive/targeted like for the home page "Buy & Sell Tickets Online - TicketTrunk" or for the events page "Tickets for events in Ontario" (same with search result pages)
Lastly, multiple press releases being released one after the other (in my opinion - I don't know for sure) will likely be picked up/flagged as trying to game Google & will have a negative effect.
I try to space mine out for important things like launch, system improvements, milestones & event sponsorship.
with that said - I recommend ereleases.com very good syndication (onto high quality sites like Forbes, etc)
haha, I didnt ask for feedback on my site directly because I wanted to make sure the information was general enough for anyone to use but thanks for taking that extra step!
Valid point about the search box and recommended events. As you see, we do exactly that on the "buy tickets" page and the reason why we didn't do that on the name page as one of our goals was to be as intuitive and non-cluttered as possible. So we were very particular about where we spaced things, in case you were curious why.
Re: Title tags, great point.
And valid points about the press releases. Part of my marketing strategy has been giving away free events to NGos, charities, etc. (and not to mention, it helps us really put our money where our mouth is in terms of being the opposite of Ticketmaster) so I thought I could do a press release for each time I did this. Now at the rate I'm doing this, it would happen about twice a week however the LAST thing I want to be is a spammer so spacing it out for larger announcements makes sense from this perspective.
