Three NEW and UPDATED Ways to Advertise "F*R*E*E" on the
The Internet is evolving so rapidly that what worked yesterday
doesn't work any longer and what works today may not work
tomorrow. Like you, I am always looking for new and exciting
ways to get the word out about my products and services. I'm
tickled pink when I come across a method that is effective,
f*r*e*e, and gets results.
Here are three methods that I have tested for you already that
have worked for me. They will take some effort and patience.
Here are three methods that are still new enough to work
effectively.
#1. Fly-In Pop-Up Ads. There were pop-up ads, pop-under ads, and
now slide-in and fly-in ads. Fly-in ads literally fly in from
the side of the screen and then vibrate before stopping in the
middle. To your viewer, they can't do anything in their browser
until they have closed the pop-up or clicked on the link. You
really get your attention.
Fly-ins can be blocked. Like pop-up ads, which are frown against
by many marketers and not by others, this craze will last
another 3-6 months. So jump on it while it's still hot and
people get smart on how to block. They do work and they aren't
as annoying because of their movement. AOL users are blocked
from receiving these.
You need to decide whether you want to add this to your web site
or not. There will always be a controversy on "whether to or not
to" on the topic of pop-ups.
There is very little information available on the how-tos for
this. Here was what I was able to discover after a few hours of
research -- to save you some time. I don't know if I necessary
promote these, however, a good marketer presents the idea so you
can make the decision. Because only you know you're business
well.

#2. Classifieds in other Internet ezines. Many ezines offer
f*r*e*e classified ads, usually in exchange for becoming a
subscriber. You find these opportunities by visiting an ezine
directory and search for ezines suitable to your
product/service. Next, contact the ezine host accepting f*r*e*e
advertising.
