Analysing the site’s statistics and identifying and building on popular content
Promoting the site using link exchanges, bulletin board posts (respecting other sites’ rules) and ensuring the site is search optimised for hot search terms
Identifying popular phone launches and creating a new channel for them based on the current site’s layout and structure
Coming up with new creative ideas to improve the site and build its audience with fresh content or web applications
