Hi Elle,
I also have an online business and I am always looking for new methods to advertise.
You can find a fr*ee download on my website listed in the resource box. It is for an e-book written by a Google Adwords expert. The e-book is entitled "Google Adwords Made Easy" and helped me very much.
You might also want to explore some free methods. Below are a few that should give you good results. If you haven't tried these yet, give it a try:
You should place fr*ee classified ads at Direct Matches and head over to Adland Pros, which is similar to Direct Matches.
You will find various categories where you can place your classified ads...just pick the ones that are the most suitable.
These are excellent online communities that are fr*ee to join and you can advertise your business or opportunity and get it in front of many eyes.
They also have a very good traffic exchange that you should join. Just read the instructions to join the traffic exchange.
This is another fr*ee method to increase traffic to your site.
The best traffic exchange is Traffic Swarm. ....traffic exchanges are very good to get your ads in front of many eyes. Just participate in the fr*ee exchanges. It is based on surfing the net and viewing other participating advertisers and you receive credits. The more credits you have, the more your ad is shown to the traffic exchange members.
Make sure to read the getting started section to activate your account properly.
Another excellent online community is Yuwie, which will allow you to blog and connect with a rapidly growing community of friends and enable you to get your name out there.
Go to forums, including the ones at Direct matches and Adland Pro. Post to forums...do not do blatant advertising or you will get banned. Set up a signature file and put you website there. Some forums have specific areas for fr*ee ads...use those, too.
Traffic Digger can bring you a huge amount of nearly effortless visitors to your site. Your ad will be on 7 levels of this page, being advertised by all the people who join after you...that can add up to 1,000,000's of people seeing your ad and clicking thru to visit your site!
You should also place classified ads at sites, such as www.Craigslist.com and www.backpage.com These are fr*ee to place ads. You can target a local market. Just make sure that you change the ads a bit if you are going to place more than one for different locations.
Good luck and let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.
