I'd avoid the /index.* option. Also, I'd make sure you register the site with www.google.com/webmasters and make sure you tell them that you wanted them to treat http://www.discount* as your site and not http://discount* - you've probably doen this already anyway! Another way for you to create your own "discount codes" group on facebook. If you keep it fresh people will join. You'll have their details so you won't have to store them and you get people attracting others to your group. Another option is to leverage Squidoo. Or add your offers to StumbleUpon - there's loads of Social stuff that you can do to compensate for not having a huge budget or not enough time to build a huge forum or network. Hope it helps, Lee Hi Mate

A decent offer can be spread amongst forums very quickly, meaning you're inundated with requests, and if you don't deliver, it's very quickly for any "goodwill" to be be rapidly undone. Collecting details for your own mailing list is something you should do Chris - that's a sensible move, but I'm not keen on collecting data to sell to third parties so that's something we don't do. I think that just because you have a business doesn't mean you have to sacrifice all your morals for a few extra quid here and there.
