Free Online Advertising

There are many different places you can get free online advertising, the trouble is that more often than not free does not mean good. I have advertised on some of the free online classifieds and have had no luck with my plumbing company. On the other hand my wife does all of her advertising on the free classifieds and gets most of her business from those ads. Her other business comes from word of mouth and some website marketing, which is where I get most of mine as well.

And in a sense once your website is done if you are only getting business from the search engines then that is free online advertising for you as well. Of course you do not need a website to get traffic from the search engines, you just need a web presence that you can optimize and get found by the search engines. This works best in a business directory that not only allows you a name and phone number but even a description of your business. That way the search engines can find you. Even better is a business directory that allows you to put up multiple pages at no cost that will let the search engines find any one of those pages and lead back to your name and phone number.

The best free online advertising is when you write an article or report that has so much value every reader feels a great desire to pass the info onto their friends and family. As long as each reader passes your information on to at least 1.1 other people you will eventually get hundreds of people per month, week, then day reading your stuff. Of course if you have an offline business you may not be able to serve thousands upon thousands of people, but once you get that busy you will be able to charge more than anyone else as you are now considered the top of field.
