Since most people are really looking for free sources of advertising, let me start off with those first. If you are looking for advertising avenues that won’t cost you anything and still bring you some results, your best bet is to go with article marketing. Article marketing, in theory, is very simple. You write articles that pertain to your target market and product, submit them to article directories and bring traffic to your site through the link in the article that you’ll include in your author bio. The only drawback is that this form of advertising is relatively slow to bring results.

If you’re looking to actually spend some money and get results a little faster, one of the most cost effective ways is to host your own FFA site. You can do this for as little as $10 a month. What hosting an FFA site does is it allows you to send out your daily advertising message to people who post their own ads to your site. This is a great way to reach other people who are involved in Internet marketing. This is a very cost effective way of advertising as you can host about 10 sites a month for under $200.

If you’re looking to spend a little more money and get the most targeted traffic that you can get online, your best bet is to go with Google Adwords. In a nutshell, Adwords is a system of advertising where you put up a 3 line ad based on certain keywords that you want to target and pay for this ad only if a person clicks on it and goes to your site. The amount you pay per click will depend on how targeted the keyword is and the competition for that keyword. For the most part, the most expensive keywords, per click, are those for make money online opportunities.

Traffic Exchanges are websites in which you can gain easy traffic to your website. You simply surf other peoples websites and earn credits to add to your websites and put in the rotation of the websites surf area. A broad range of people use traffic exchanges to gain referrals to their programs and raise search engine rank of their own websites.There are many different kinds of traffic exchanges throughout the internet. They will all have their unique look, surf ratio, and other features and functions.

Some traffic exchanges will even offer very small incentives in the form of real cash for surfing their sites. Many different forms of advertising are available with traffic exchanges such as, banner ads, text link ads, featured ads, manual surf exchange, auto surf exchange, and much more, They all have different styles and methods. Purchasing an upgrade package at the most populated or highest trafficked traffic exchanges is also a good move. This will give you much more free advertising and that is disbursed to you throughout the length of the upgrade, as well as other benefits and luxuries that free members do not experience.

Autosurf exchanges are automatic which means you can leave your computer on and have it automaticly surfing the websites at the exchanges earning you lots of credits while you are away. Generally the point of autosurfs is really only to raise page rank, as very rarely will you ever get a sign up to your program or a sale to your product as people really don’t have to look or be at their computer to use the autosurf. An important note also is if you use autosurfs most publishing/affiliate networks are against them and will terminate your account if your promoting your website with their published ads on it within autosurfs.

Manual surf exchanges are sites in which you actually have to physically be at your computer to manually surf other members websites and earn advertising credits. They are great for driving some quick traffic to your sites for free. You can also refer other people to use them and earn a percentage of advertising credits that they earn. There are some non paying manual exchanges and also ones that you can indeed earn real cash with available on the internet. Paying traffic exchanges also let you earn very small amounts of real cash or credits that can be converted into real cash by surfing the websites at their site.
