You can use SEO methods and article writing but they are too slow and not guaranteed to work.

Google Adwords is obviously the best way, but you can be losing a lot of money if you are in a competitive market because the bids on your keywords will be high, and you could be paying for clicks when people don’t even stay long on your website or participate.

I’m using this technique ; http://www.getrichrevealed.com/Google_Ads.html

It’s helped me within a few days get free google ads without having to pay Adwords, payed itself off within 3 days.

I’ve currently got a rank on google with my most competitive keyword thread at #5 due to it, hope it helps you.

Last night they sent out my ad and to be perfectly honest,i didnt expect anyone to sign up for my program…imagine my shock and joy when i checked my stats this morning and discovered that not only did i get 1722 sign-ups from the ad they sent BUT the majority of the 1722 sign-ups had already recruited people under them. the signups are still rolling in.

You can use pay per click advertising in the search engines to reach audiences looking for your products. You can use Google Adwords http://www.google.com/adwords or Yahoo http://searchmarketing.yahoo.com

Here are some shoestring marketing ideas that can help you get the visitors you need at the least cost possible:

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 will 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 tap on the Web. But give your users the tools. Get a Recommend this Site script from websites such as cgiscripts.com and similar directories of scripts. Some even go as far as giving incentives to those who recommend the site to their friends. If only 10 people go to your site, but these 10 people invite 10 more – that’s additional traffic that you get for FREE!

Recommend Site Scripts (various) http://php.resourceindex.com/Complete_Scripts/Website_Promotion/Recommend_Site/
Big Nose Bird Recommend this Site http://bignosebird.com/carchive/birdcast.shtml
CGI Resource Index http://cgi.resourceindex.com/Programs_and_Scripts/Perl/Website_Promotion/Recommend_Site/
Hostscripts http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Site_Recommendation/index.html

3. Rank well in the search engines (organic search results, not the pay per click). SEs can be a big source of traffic. The key is to create the best content in your niche. If you have good content, other websites will gladly link to you and offer your site as a resource to their audience. Check the on-page factors and be sure to get linked from authority sites in your topic area.

If you are going to read only one piece on search engine optimization, I suggest you read Brett Tabke of WebmasterWorld.com’s "Successful Site in 12 Months with Google Alone: 26 steps to 15k a day." http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum3/2010.htm

4. Send out press releases. While outfits charge as much as $650 per release, there are free press release submission places on the Web. Press releases allow you to (a) attract media attention; (b) get more back links to your website without sending each website an email request; and (c) get more visibility especially if your press release gets in Google News or Yahoo News.

5. Submit articles. Write articles and submit them to websites accepting author submissions. You get exposure for your business; establishes you as an authority in your field, and allows you to get backlinks for your website. If 50 websites publish your article and it contains a link back to your website, then you easily get 50 links from a single article. The more links you have, the greater your chances for increasing your search engine rankings.

Here is a comprehensive list of where to submit your articles http://answers.yahoo.com/question/;_ylt=AhzreGmnCUicOoyedqypscUjzKIX?qid=1006022407481

6. Post a link to your site for free where it is allowed (always read the Terms of Use). Examples are:

Craigslist http://www.craigslist.com
Google Base http://base.google.com
Classifieds for Free http://www.classifiedsforfree.com/...
Text Link Exchange http://www.txtswap.com/
Recycler.com http://www.recycler.com/
Yahoo Classifieds http://classifieds.yahoo.com/
US Free Ads http://www.usfreeads.com/
Kijiji http://www.kijiji.com/
Local.com http://www.local.com/

One of the most interesting, and potentially most profitable, ways to generate additional website traffic and potentially additional income as well, is to include a Google search bar on your website. Providing a Google search bar can be a great compliment to an existing Google AdSense revenue stream, and it can provide additional “stickiness” as well. This stickiness is a great way to keep visitors to your website there long enough to see what you, and your advertisers, have to offer.

The ability to keep the attention of casual website visitors is one of the most critical factors to the success of any web based business. Studies have shown that the majority of website visitors get an impression of a website within a matter of seconds, and they may click away just as fast if they do not like what they see. A prominently displayed Google search bar provides a familiar item on which those visitors can focus their attention during those crucial first few seconds on your website.

In addition to its ability to retain the attention of website visitors, the Google search bar is able to appeal to a wide variety of internet users. No matter what subject these visitors are interested in, chances are good that they will be able to find what they need on the Google search bar. This wide reach allows website visitors to quickly and easily find the information they need, while enhancing the usefulness and user friendliness of the website on which the search bar appears.
