Secrets Of Getting Free Advertising
By Kim Thomas

The opportunities for getting free advertising for your
product or service is limited only by your own imagination
and energies. There are so many proven ways of promoting your
own website without cost.

*One way is to write an article that pertains to your
particular subject matter and submit it to article submission
sites. Submit your article to the category that best describes
your theme and then follow the submission guidelines. Here are
a few good article submission sites to get you started;

Author Connection

Ezine Articles

Idea Marketers

You need to become your own publicity and sales promotions
writer. Get the word out by writing an informative article and
establish yourself as an expert in your field. At the end of
every article you write, be sure to include your "resource
box". Your resource box sends readers to your website where you
are selling your product or service. Include your name, the
title of your website, the url and a 1-2 line description of
your website.

*Another really good way to obtain free advertising is by
becoming a guest on as many radio and television talk
shows or interview type programs as possible. Actually, this is much
easier to do than most people realize. Write a letter to the
producer of these programs, then follow up with an in-person
visit or telephone call. Your initial contact should emphasize
that your product or service would be of interest to the
listeners or viewers of the program - perhaps even saving them
time or money. Here are 2 good places to start;

Virtual Tuner

AJR Newslink

across the United States and nationally. Search by state or

*Other ways of getting free or very inexpensive exposure
to your website is by distributing your business card every
where. Hand out your business cards to friends and neighbors.
Post your business cards on free bulletin boards in your area,
including grocery stores, college bulletin boards, shopping
malls and any place else you can think of. Here are 2 sites
where you can make your own business cards for free;

*There is nothing in the world that beats the low cost
and tremendous exposure you get when you advertise a free
offer. Simply run an ad offering a free article, free ebook,
or free software. Your ad should direct readers to your free
offer, as well as your website where you are selling your
product or service. If you offer your readers a free product
or service, make sure they receive the free product or service.
Don't be deceptive in your advertising.

These are just a few examples of how you can get free
advertising for your website. There are hundreds of ways to
gain free publicity - it's just a matter of unleashing your imagination and creativity.
