There are millions of web sites trying to get listed in
the top 20 spots of the major search engines. That
amounts to a lot of competition! I say if you can’t
get listed at the top, indirectly get to the top.

How do you do this? Look up the top 20 web sites
on the major search engines under the keywords and
phrases people would find your web site. The key
would be to then advertise on those web sites.

The most expensive way would be to buy ad space
on those web sites. If you don’t want to spend any
money, you could use the ten strategies below.
These strategies may not apply to every web site.

1. Participate on their discussion boards. You could
post questions, answer other peoples questions, and
join in on conversations. Just include your signature
file and link at the end of your messages.

2. Ask the web site owner if they would like a free
ebook to giveaway to their visitors. You could have
them link to your web site or include your ad in the
free ebook.

3. Submit content to their web site. You could write
articles for their web site and include your resource
box and link at the end of the article. If they publish
it, you’ll indirectly be at the top of the search engines.

4. Write an excellent article review of their web site,
products or services. Then publish the review on your
web site. E-mail the web site owner and tell him or
her about it. They may link to your web site so their
visitors read it.

5. Ask the owner of the web site if they would want
to trade advertising. If you don’t get as much traffic
as they do, you could throw in some extra incentives.

6. Propose a cross promotion deal with the web site.
You both could promote each others products or
services together in one package deal. This means a
mention and link back to your web site.

7. Give the web site a testimonial for their product or
service. Include a little text link for your web site with
the testimonial. You never know; it could end up on
their ad copy.

8. Post your advertisement on their free classified ad
section on their web site. You want to be sure you
have an attractive headline so they will read your ad.

9. Post your text link on their free-for-all links page.
You want to go back and post your link regularly so
it stays towards the top.

10. Sign their guest books. You could leave a short
compliment about their web site on their guest book.
Just include your signature file and link at the end of
your message.

1. Participate in chat rooms related to the product
you’re reselling. Start a conversation with a person
without trying to sell to them. Later on, while you
are chatting, mention the product you’re reselling.

2. Create a free ebook with the advertisement and
link of your affiliate web site. The subject of the free
ebook should draw your target audience to down-
load it. Also submit it to some ebook directories.

3. Start your own affiliate program directory. Join
a large number of affiliate programs and list them all
in a directory format on your web site. Then just
advertise your free affiliate program directory.

4. Write your own affiliate program ads. If all the
other affiliates use the same ads you do, that does
not give you an edge over your competition. Use
a different ad to give yourself an advantage over
all the other affiliates.

5. Use a personal endorsement ad. Only use one if
you’ve actually bought the product or service for the
affiliate program. Tell people what kind of benefits
and results you’ve received using the product.

6. Advertise the product you’re reselling in your
signature file. Use an attention getting headline and
a good reason for them to visit your affiliate site.
Make sure your sig file doesn’t go over 5 lines.

7. Join a web ring. It should attract the same type
of people that would be interested in buying the
product you’re reselling. You could also trade links
on your own with other related web sites.

8. Participate on web discussion boards. Post your
comments, answer other people’s questions, and
ask your own questions. Include your affiliate text
link under each message you post.

9. Create a free ezine. Use your ezine to advertise
the affiliate programs you’ve joined. Submit your
ezine to online ezine directories and promote it on
your web site.

10. Start a private web site. Use it as a free bonus
if people buy the product you resell. You could
also allow people to join for free and you could
advertise the affiliate program you’ve joined.

“The young man of native ability, (with) the will to work
and good personality will, in the long run, get the

find ways to learn and to get ahead.” — Edward G. Seubert

People will feel more comfortable purchasing your
products if you give them a little information about
yourself or business. The information could be your

education credentials, awards you’ve won, etc.
Below are 10 ways you can use to promote yourself.

to your business. You could install a chat room on
your web site or use a free one from another web site.
Before the class starts tell them a little about yourself.

2. Publish a free e-zine. Use some of the extra space
in your e-zine to write about yourself or business. This
could be called “A Note From the Editor”.

3. Publish a section on your web site called “About
Us”. With your information you could also include
pictures. This shows people your not hiding behind
your business.

information about yourself in the resource box. E-mail
the article to web sites or e-zines that accept article
submissions.

5. Create and giveaway a free ebook. In the ebook
include a section called “About The Author”. Also,
include an advertisement for your business.

discussion boards, e-mail discussion lists and chat
rooms. You will meet many people and in return they
will get to know you.

7. Donate your time, products, or services to charities.
You can list the charities you’ve contributed to on your
web site. This will show visitors that you and your
business care about others.

8. Promote yourself offline; teach a free class offline,
speak at business seminars, join a business club or
association. Assemble fundraisers for charity. These
are just few ideas to promote yourself offline.

9. Offer free consulting to your visitors. You could do
it via e-mail or phone. They will get to know you and
feel more comfortable buying your products.

10. Publish information about yourself and business
history in your ad copy. While people are reading it
they begin to trust you and your business. Don’t over
do it though, you want to keep them interested in
your product.

 Do you post to message boards, e-mail discussion
 lists, classified ads sites, FFA sites or newsgroups?
 People will usually read the subject line before they
 read your ad or message, so it’s important they get
 noticed. Below are ten simple, but powerful tips to
 get your ads or messages noticed.

 1. Use extra white space creatively in your subject
 line. You can add extra blank spaces between your
 words or letters.

 2. Combine capital letters with lower case letters.
 Use all capital letters in every other word or use a
 capital letter between every other lower case letter.

 3. Add text symbols in your subject line. You could
 use them between words and letters. Start and end
 your subject with a text symbol. ( *, $, ,{,] )

 4. Begin your subject line with the word “STOP!”.
 People have been trained their whole life to stop
 what they are doing when they see that word.

 5. Ask people a question in your subject line. We
 all went to school and were repetitively branded to
 answer questions.

 6. Use the word “FREE” in your subject line. Your
 offer should be attractive to your target audience.
 It could be free information, software, trials, etc.

 7. Begin your subject line with an “online smile :)”.
 People use smiles offline to gain people’s attention
 and to win their trust, why not use them online too.

 8. Don’t use unbelievable claims in your subject line.
 People have or know some who has been ripped
 off and trained themselves to ignore those claims.

 9. Don’t use all capital letters in your subject line.
 It is hard to read, looks unprofessional, and on the
 internet it’s considered a symbol for shouting.

 10. Test different subject lines to see which ones
 draws the most traffic to your web site. Also, read
 the FAQ before posting a message or ad anywhere.
