I get this question a lot. “Can you tell me great sites to advertise on for free (or very little) money?” In the early days of my home business career I followed other people’s advice and advertised on the free and low cost ad sites they recommended. Frankly, most sources, especially from popular teachers that have training sites, are useless. These free advertising sites may have been great sources when the teachers found them, but after thousands of their pupils started advertising on them as well, (often promoting the same opportunity) they’re pretty much useless. The free advertising sites on how2succeedonline.net are much fresher since I am constantly searching for new ones that have enough traffic to deliver good results like CraigsList, Ablewise, Myspace, You Tube, Adpost, Squidoo, Backpage, Ideamarketers and more. Today however, I will teach you a technique that I use to find free advertising sites that haven’t been so beat up with overuse. In essence, I’m going to show you how to fish for free advertising vehicles that will give you a constant stream of fresh, new advertising venues with less competition. This is so simple it will blow your mind…which is, of course, true of many of the most successful techniques. By the way, I found many of my favorite ad sites this way! Let’s start by typing in “Business Opportunity” into Google Search or any search engine you prefer. You can use the keywords that you currently use to promote your business (i.e. “make money online”, “Home Based Business”, etc.). You can even do a search for the keyword of the opportunity you represent like “EDC Gold” “PWF” or “1Step System”, etc. Then I look for optimized search results that appear on the left side of the page (not the pay per click part of the page). As I go down the page, I look for ads that are part of forums or ad sites. You’ll find several ads on the top three pages that are ad-posting on third party sites offering advertising vs. company owned or opportunity sites that just talk about their product, service or opportunity. Many of these sites offer free or low cost advertising. And best of all, Google has found these sites and elevated their index (so they appear on pages 1-3 of the search results), even in highly competitive areas where popular keywords are used. You’ll find more quality sites than you know what to do with, just with the use of a few keywords. Next, place your ads on several of these sites. To maximize your response, make sure your ad is keyword dense (lots of keywords repeated throughout the text of the ad). If you do, not only will you benefit from the traffic that advertising site produces, but you’ll also benefit from the very high listing on Google and other search engines, which will boost your traffic by possibly hundred fold. Another technique you can try is typing the words “Free Advertising Help” into Google. It’s not as good as my first recommendation, but still better that joining other team members and advertising on the same pages being used by thousands of direct competitors. On one of the next articles I’ll talk about is how to super charge your ad for search optimization…you’ll be amazed. Never miss any of our “Marketing Insight” ezines.
