1. Submit your website to various search
engines and directories. Not only to major search engines
such as Google, Yahoo and MSN, You also want to submitting
to lesser known web directories. The more your website is
listed in as many places as possible, the higher your
rankings in major search engines will be.
2. Post topics in forums. Visit the online
discussion forums where your peers gather. Respond to
questions you are knowledgeable about and include your link
and contact information if appropriate. Set up you
favorites so you can post on many different forums. Don't
overdo it, since your credibility in key in establishing
yourself as an expert.
3. Comment on blogs that are related to
your field. If you are allowed to add comments about the
issues being discussed, take advanced. Add insightful
comments about topics and leave your website link. Your
comment and your link will remain on the blog website
permanently.
4. Check out traffic exchanges. There are
several kinds of traffic exchange programs but the ideas
are are the same - team up with other website owners, and
they send you traffic in exchange for you sending them
traffic. Do a search for "traffic exchange" and you will
find these services.
5. Create something of high value that has no expense to
you accept your time. It can be a report with useful
information that you allow people to give away. Try writing
your own e-book, or creating website that people naturally
pass on to their friends because it has a "wow" factor of
some sort. Of course, the pass-around item will include
your advertisement and your link, spreading the word about
your website. This is what "viral" marketing is all about.
6. Start writing your own articles on the topic related to
your website, with your link included as well as your
author bio. Submit your articles to article directories,
you may also use software that auto summits your article.
You will allow people to publish your article in their
newsletters and websites. This is another form of viral
marketing since your articles will spread around the web
like a virus. The best part is that people who read your
articles will regard you as an expert, and they will be
much more likely to buy from you when they go to your
website. How's that for a free publicity?
7. Start an e-zine for your web site. You are building a
relationship by given away value. When people read each
issue they'll be reminded to revisit your web site. Submit
it to all the free e-zine directories on the internet. Many
e-zine writers have as many as 200,000 subscribers, imagine
if only 1% purchase a product from you where you net
$39.00. Do the math.
8. Hold free online classes or seminars. They could be held
in your web site's chat room. The idea of "live"
information will definitely entice people to visit your web
site. You will become known as an expert on the topic.
9. Give free consulting to people who visit your web site.
You could offer your knowledge via e-mail or by telephone.
People will consider this a huge value because consulting
fees can be very expensive.
10. Here is a pretty obvious one, post ads on free
advertising site. Here are some, Craigslist, Backpage,
adlandpro, inetgiant, freeadvertsingforum. Just run a
search on Google for "free advertising" you'll find even
more.
11. Join free safelists. These are lists of likeminded
individuals who are usually promoting a product, of
affiliate program or MLM Company. They have all opted-in to
send and receive e-mails from each other. The pros are that
you can instantly reach potentially thousands of people by
sending out emails, and you don't have to worry about
receiving spam complaints. The down side is that you are
promoting to people who already have some sort of business.
Just remember it's a numbers game.
12. Make videos on YouTube. Check out what others are
already doing, go to YouTube and search your market, just
as you would with Google. Copy the one who you think is
most effective. Don't forget include your link to you
website by you video description.
