Free Advertising online is one of the easiest things to find. The problem is most of the so called "free advertising" does have a cost that is not monetary!
There are a number of different ways to market for free online but the most popular are Free Classified Sites, free links pages, safe lists and information forums.
I generated $30,000.00 online in 6 weeks by marketing EXCLUSIVELY on an Internet Forum! Promoting your business for free can be effective if you approach it properly. Lets take a look at the most popular options individually.
Free Classified sites allow you to post an ad that will remain on their site for a period of time. What most people do not realize is that once you post your ad two things happen.
1) You are now immediately added to an opt-in email list giving the owner of the wesbiste cart blanche to market anything they want to you and even sell your contact information if they choose.
2) You will have just placed your email address in a highly visible area that is a harvesting grown for bulk emailers to harvest email addresses to send SPAM emails.
The same holds true for free advertising on FFA pages. This is how the owners of the pages build huge opt-in lists as those who do not realize this are promoting their opportunities in the hopes of getting free exposure.
Safe lists are on the surface a good source of free advertising except for the fact that people join safe lists to promote their opportunity NOT to receive ads from others. This causes a major problem and generally results in little if any benefit at all.
Here is why, most safe list providers teach their members to get a "throw away" email address. This is the address they will use when they post ads to the network or to receive ads from others in the safe list. This email address is rarely ever checked or the mail is simply deleted frequently to allow the member to maintain their active status. So people place ad after ad and no one is reading them!
There are a few newbies who join and read a few ads but most people are deleting their mail without reading it but hoping people will respond to their ads.
Here is the biggest problem with safe list marketing which is a major benefit to the owner of the safe list. When you join a safe list you have to provide your REAL email address. This means once again the owner of the safelist is building a HUGE opt in list while YOU are sending your ads to a bunch of email addresses where they are most likely being deleted without being read!
Start Page Rotators- this is a very popular method of Free Advertising to promote your MLM business. There are two problems with start page rotators if you are using them to build your MLM business.
A) The people who join a start page rotating program are interested in getting promotion for THEIR business, NOT looking at your free advertising for YOUR business!
Most people put the link the rotator company gives them in their favorites file and simply visit the site a few times while they are reading their email or something else to earn credits to get views for their page. That means guess who benefits the most from start page rotating companies?
THE OWNERS OF THE PROGRAM! They now have access to a database of prospects who are already involved with some type of MLM business! What a way to build a HUGE list of prospects!
B) Most people are not getting ANY response when they use a start page rotator to get free advertising because they are advertising the WRONG page! Most MLM companies sites give too much information! A person is only required to view your page for 30 seconds which means you better give them enough incentive to give you their name email to be added to your autoresponder or contact manager BEFORE you send them to your website. This is the only way you will have a fighting chance of getting any real benefit from a start page rotator company.
