You need to complement your Offline marketing – direct mail, press releases, flyers – with online marketing. If you do this correctly, you can get lots of targeted traffic to your site without spending a penny. Here are some ideas for inexpensive marketing that can help you get the visitors you need at the lowest possible cost: 1. Create the best content you can with the best products you can possibly offer. Your content is your best advertisement – if visitors love your content, then they'll go back and spread the word to others. 2. Make it easy for users to recommend your site. Viral marketing is very important – and easy to use on the Web. But give your users the tools. Get a Site Suggest this script from websites such as cgiscripts.com and similar directories scripts. Some even give encouragement to those who recommend the site to their friends. If only 10 people see your site but these 10 people invite 10 more – or additional traffic that you get FREE!

A good ranking in search engines (the natural search results, not the pay per click). SE may be an important source of traffic. The key is to create the best content in your niche. If you have good content, other sites will be a pleasure, thanks to you and offer your site as a resource to their audience. Check the on-page factors and be sure to get to from related authority sites in your subject area.

Send press releases. While outfits charge as much as $ 650 per trip, he there are places without having to press release on the Web.
