What Are Your Top 3 Online Promotion Methods?

brt: Can anyone recommend any good classsified ad sites and a site for press releases? TIA!
Craigslist is a free classifieds website with lots of traffic

Ok, I'm gonna offer a slight departure, here.

1. Ad Campaigns to highly circulated Home Business Magazines, such as Home Business Connection, True Wealth, etc. Our group is having a lot of success with this.

2. Forum and Blog posts

3. Attraction Marketing

Great idea! I wonder if perhaps some magazines would even be interested in human interest articles where you could gently presell your business as part of your story? Hmmm. Something to consider for my 'to do' list.

About how much does this cost to run ads in? Do you run coop ads or individual ads?

My top three are

1. Voice blasting, great way to create organic quality leads on demand when I want them.

2. JV. Win win situation with those that have lists of the customers I want. Takes time to work them but once you do JACKPOT

3. Press releases and ezines, make it a goal to create one unique one a day rich with keywords, you will get to the top pages of google quickly.

1. Myspace (10000 "friends" and growing)
2. Forums
3. Ad campaigns

ibuzz- Can you give me a synopsis of this "voice blasting" you mentioned above?


TIA,

Brendan

My three main methods are

1-Article writing
2-blogging and forums
3-free classifieds

So far I have the best response to article writing

definately writing honest articles
writing honest blogs
pay per click

it works!

Posting on relevant forums is great depending on the niche. I haven't had much luck with the webmaster/make money niche. Article marketing is great if you research your keywords. Commenting on relevant blogs is good if they are relevant and high traffic. I rely heavily on dofollow blog lists like this one http://projectwm.com/showthread.php?tid=192 and have had good success with them.

Forums in conjuction with article marketing
classifieds

1. PPC

2. Article marketing

3. SERP

I am in my second month of marketing and very novice to you guys. I use like most of you Forums, plus:

Safelists(7-10 different ones 5/days/week) most of them free. I pay for one (very cheap) and left 10 messages and 2 banners in there automatically posted everyday.

sometimes I use yahoo answers also.

I would have to go with:

1. Article Marketing
2. Search Engine Optimization
3. Blogging

What I love is that the 2 new ones that will be replacing this will be

relevant forum posting
e-zines

It's good to try to move on to the next technique, because new ones are being developed all the time.

Hi There

I'd say:

1.) Social Networking
2.) Ad Posting
3.) Least Favorite but very effective Article Writing

I use a few others, but the 3 listed above are my most frequently used.

Could anyone recommend some free safelists out there?

Marketing methods I use:

- PPC - Adwords
- Blogs and forums
- Social bookmarking

My favorite is Email Marketing. when done right it requires such little effort :

article marketing
rss submissions
twitter / facebook
blogging

1. Have a Plan
2. Build a Relationship
3. Take Action
