Power Promte for FREE!
When you first come online and are looking for a way to start
your own business, the information that you read can be
overwhelming. Besides deciding what business you want to go into
and designing and building your web site, you must now learn how
to get people to come to your site.
It seems like an insurmountable task for people to find your
site amongst the hundreds of thousands of web sites out there.
Especially when most of us are businesses with budgets and often
very strict ones. With this article, I am going to let you know
about some of the most effective promotion methods I have found
and they are absolutely FREE!
*Writing Articles - Writing articles is a power-packed way of
promoting yourself and your business. Not only do people read
about your business in your resource box, but because of your
articles you will become known as someone who knows what they
are talking about and can be trusted.
Writing articles is not as hard as it may seem. Write about what
you know and just write as if you were instructing a friend or
co-worker. Do not be afraid to let your personality shine
through. That is what will make your articles unique. After you
write your article, you will need to get them out to other ezine
and ebook publishers. Article lists are a great way of doing
this. Subscribe to the list below and submit those freshly
written articles. mailto:aabusiness-subscribe@egroups.com
mailto:article_announce-subscribe@egroups.com
mailto:articles_archives-subscribe@egroups.com
mailto:ArticlePublisher-subscribe@yahoogroups.com
*Discussion Lists and Message Boards - Those who know me or have
read my articles before know that I am an avid believer of
discussion lists and message boards. As with articles, you can
establish your expertise and build your reputation which in turn
will do wonders for promoting your business. Offer advice, help,
ideas and post as often as possible! Make sure you have an
effective sigline. I have made sales, business contacts and
obtained subscribers just by welcoming new people to a group.
Be sure to follow the guidelines for each group/board. You do
not want to be accused of spamming! Get started with these
groups & boards: mailto:Newbies911-subscribe@topica.com
mailto:wahmhits-subscribe@yahoogroups.com

*Ad Swapping - If you publish an ezine ( which you most
definitely should), ad swapping is a great way of getting your
ad out there for free! Find other ezine publishers looking for
swaps and send them an email asking if they would be
interested
in swapping. Tell them a little about your ezine and let them
know where they can see a sample copy. If you don't know where
to find other publishers to swap with visit these sites:

http://www.bizpromo.com/ezinetrades.htm
http://www.businessstructure.com/ezineadswap.htm
*Ezine Publishing - As I mentioned above, you should definitely
be publishing an ezine to keep in contact with your website
visitors and subscribers. Ezines themselves can be excellent
income generators and they can also generate a lot of business
for you.
Publishing a quality ezine is very important to your online
business. Your subscribers will want helpful information and
resources, not just a bunch of ads to read. By giving your
subscribers what they want, you will become trusted and they
will listen to what you have to say about products, programs,
etc. To learn more about ezine publishing:

*Free Traffic Programs - Free traffic programs are a great way
to get visitors to your site. Once they get there, it is up to
you and your website to keep them there. Join several of these
programs and take an hour or two a week and surf for visitors.
For each program open a separate window and keep them all going
at once. You will receive a lot more visitors that way. Here are
some examples of these programs:

http://www.askmiky.com/home/signup.php?ref=websuccess
http://www.ezhits4u.com/index.asp?ref=web-success
These are a few of the more effective ways of advertising and
promoting your business for FREE! There are many other ways, but
the methods I have covered in this article are some of the most
effective, in my experience. Get started with each method and as
you learn and get more experience, expand into more email
groups, traffic programs, article writing and ad swapping. You
will find that a lot of the promotion methods go hand in hand
and you will learn more and more ways to promote your business
for FREE!
Much success to you and the best of luck with your online
ventures.
