What way is best to advertise for your business?

Answer 1

Have you thought about pay per click programs? The two biggest, I think, are Yahoo! and Google

A few free resources – check out the sources box for links:

1) Create a blog pertaining to your field

2) Use Yahoo! Local & Yahoo! Groups – Be sure to read the TOS for each one!

3) Write articles pertaining to your field and/or expertise.

4) Advertise on Craiglist

Also, consider signing up for an affiliate program. These programs enable you to advertise on other's sites (your affiliates) and once a sale is made to you, your affiliates & the program are paid a commission.

I listed a few handy sites & articles relating to marketing, promotion & advertising. Here are some book titles that are relevant:

* Off The Wall Marketing Ideas: Jumpstart Your Sales without Busting Your Budget by Nancy Michaels, Debbi J. Karpowicz
* Guerrilla Marketing for Free: Dozens of No-Cost Tactics to Promote Your Business and Energize Your Profits by Jay Conrad Levinson
* Entrepreneur Magazine's Ultimate Small Business Marketing Guide: Over 1500 Great Marketing Tricks That Will Drive Your Business Through the Roof by James Stephenson

Hope that helps! I wish you much success & happiness in all your ventures!

That really depends on what your business is and what you are trying to accomplish. Here is a good article on marketing on a budget http://www.home-business-expo.com/972006_AffordableMarketing.asp.

If you are trying to sell services or products locally here are some suggestions:

1. Build a website (this might not pay off right away but definitely won't hurt and will help in the long term)
2. Network at local events. Join the Chamber, go to school fundraisers, church events, etc.
3. Always have a business card on hand and give out as many as possible.

Until we know what exactly you are trying to advertise it is hard to give more specific instructions.

Best way? I'll like to know that too. I'll watch this question. I recommend that you create your own websites or blogs @ blogger.com and put up your products' photos and services if you have any. If you can create websites or blogs and can type, you can make online money online easily. You may make money by publishing Google Adsense on your websites. If you have a website or a web-blog, you could make money by publishing advertisements on your site (by google). If someone clicks on those ads, you will earn money. If you don't have a website, you may start creating web-blogs like blogger.com (mostly free) with
advertisements (google ads) on it. Some free websites don't allow you to publish google adsense because they are doing it
themself.
