How would you use a budget of $200 - $300 per month?

Facebook ads? Content creation? Fiverr?

My client is a guest ranch that does a lot of different things:  guided fishing/hunting trips, horseback riding, weddings, small conferences, vacations, etc. They have two sites, one for the fishing and hunting (6 months old), the other for everything else (12 year old site).

that depends on site's target audience and what product do you promote or sell in your website. I'll use for begining in link building and paid search, after that .... make a strategy on target visitors and your products.

My vote goes for content creation, tools and features. A mini twitter contest-giveaway is not a bad idea either.

I would disagree with both of the responses below.

To be honest, what I would do with $200-$300 per month is hire a data entry person.  I would then train this data entry person in link building and pay them about $10 an hour.  I would also recommend keeping this person in the office because link building is super tedious - submitting to directories, participating in forums, participating in blogs, requesting links, etc. The not-so-moral person might spend their entire day on Facebook instead of actually working on the links

From there, I would suggest having you work on the content - business owners always produce the best content - and your link building will perfectly supplement your activities.

Cant answer till we know more about what the site is trying to market and what has been done so far- Do you have any content? etc

This might help: My client is a guest ranch that does a lot of different things:  guided fishing/hunting trips, horseback riding, weddings, small conferences, vacations, etc. They have two sites, one for the fishing and hunting (6 months old), the other for everything else (12 year old site).

I'm trying to get them to come up with more content, which is slowly happening. The facebook page is doing well with about 3k active users.

There is a lot of linkbuilding potential for both sites but that is going to take more time and effort than money...i think.
