Use a Lot of Headlines
Use a lot of headlines on your web site and e-zine.
Some types of headlines are free offers, questions,
problem solvers, sales, and statistics. For example,
"Free E-book", "Want To Get Out Of Debt?", "Free
Article", etc. You could also turn the headlines into
graphics to make them look more professional.
Design graphics, templates, buttons and banner
ads for other sites. Allow people to use them in
exchange for your web link on their home page. For
example, you could require the users to say on their
web site, "These graphics were made possible by
(your business name and web site address)."
Use time-saving promotional software. You can
automate your search engine submissions, posting
to online classified sites, etc. You may have to buy
them, but you'll make up the money you spend by
getting your other business requirements completed
faster. Sometimes you can find this type of software
for free on the web.
Advertise your online business by dressing in
clothes that are imprinted with your ad. It could be
a T-shirt, ball cap, coat, etc. You would want to
especially do this if you are going to a crowded
event, like a football game, a county fair, party,
dance, a social club, etc.
Trade links with other web sites. They should be
related to the subject of your web site. Instead of
trading links, you could also trade banner ads, half
page ads, classified ads, etc. If they turn down your
trade offer, you could offer them some extra in-
centives like free things and extra free ad space.
Start an e-zine for your web site. When people
read each issue they'll be reminded to revisit your
web site. They'll see your product ad more than
just once, which will increase your orders. You’ll
need to have at least 50% original content in it so
people don't unsubscribe because they read your
information in other e-zines.
Form an online community. It could be an online
message board, e-mail discussion list or chat room.
When people get involved in your community, they
will regularly return to communicate with others.
You could also invite your online community to free
"how to" classes hosted in your chat room or by
teleconference.
Write articles and submit them to e-zines, web
sites and magazines that accept article submissions.
Include your business information and web address
at the end of the article. You could also give the
editors extra incentives to publish your article, like
freebies, affiliate commissions, offers to publish
their article, etc.
Give away an electronic freebie with your ad on
it. Allow your visitors to give the freebie away as
well. This'll increase your ad exposure and attract
people to your web site at the same time. You
could also use it as a bonus for another product
you sell or as a free surprise gift for your most loyal
customers. Article Source: New Media Marketing Advertising
