Advertising Website business that takes goods or services for payment instead of cash.?

Question

Hi
My boyfriend is exceptionally good at designing and building websites. He can create anything of any design or taste with special effects, videos etc etc on it. There are so many web design businesses out there that we decided to make ours with a difference - we will accept company stock or services from the business as payment for a top class website. This will appeal to people as they dont have to find a cash lay out to pay for a site which can run into the thousands for a really good professional site. Instead they use stock they already have or services they offer - i.e we do a holiday website we get free holiday / s that we can sell or keep at our discretion. This gives the smaller business's who cannot afford to pay for a website to still enjoy and benefit all that the world wide web can offer in extra marketing and sales.
However i do not have a clue where to start to advertise. Can anyone advise any good sites?
Thanks

Hey,

I think I have a solution that will work for you. Since you want to make it easy for people to hire your web design skills, why not give them your service free of charge and in return you can put your advertisement on those websites you created! That way, when other people visit those websites you created they will see your advertisement about your web design skills.

Another similar option is to put other advertisements onto those websites which pay you. Let's say the website you created for someone is worth $200 but the person doesn't have $200 to pay you. So, you put advertisements for other companies onto those websites and keep them there until the ads earn you $200. You can make such agreements with your clients beforehand.

You can get paid advertisements at the website I listed below.

Hope my 2 ideas help you!

Many believe you should keep tax records forever. You never know if the government can make a mistake with payouts years down the road Statements: Keep the first one, keep others for 1 year.
