A free source for content - teenagers

[babyblue24 7]

Hi there,

I was wondering if anyone knows a free place to get content, articles, movies, mp3's, music vids, feeds, free stuff... evolving around teenagers, I run a fansite <snip> and have found a good percentage of my visitors are teengers, I would just like some extra content so they don't leave as fast...

Any idea's?

Get the teenagers to write for you?

Seriously. Give them blogs. :)

I would, but they all use MySpace, and are in love with it... so unfortunetly that would not work =(

You may have to approach the best writers of the bunch individually -- play it up a bit, too. :)

I'm after bloggers for my site right now, and one of the things I'm doing is offering an ad campaign for the blogs once they've got sufficient content. I'll pay for an adwords/adbright campaign to draw traffic to their blog -- which is pretty much a win/win scenario there.

Plus approaching forum posters individually really does work. I spotted a really good writer last night in a forum & shot him an email about his posts -- by the end of the night, I had a new and enthusiastic blogger who can really write. :) I didn't realize it at the time, but he's about 18. (GOOD writer for that age.)

True,
But what could I get them to write about? My site is a fansite for Alecia Moore...

Write about their everyday lives? or Alecia? There's not much to do lol...

Hi,

It's not quite clear personally for me while reading your thread: do you want the sources to get teenagers' targeted content for your site or you just look for ways to attract teenagers to write content for you? If you meant the latter then save blogs idea you can also initiate a competion on a best composition or article in a relevant place offering a award for a winner. Thus you could get some material for a not very high price.
That's not my idea. I wrote about it somewhere, but I find it worth considering.

It's more im looking for free content for teenagers that is already written. Plugins or either free articles...
