How do you advertise your website?

[PocketRockets]

What are some good methods of advertising websites, that are not too costly?
I'm looking into opening a site or two, and I want to know what you guys do to advertise, and how much it costs (monthly).

Why don't you tell us what you want to get into then?

Google is a fairly decent benchmark...if it's expensive in Google, it will be expensive elsewhere...

Pick up a book or do some reasearch on guerilla marketing if you're looking for cheap methods.

That's the quickest way to get banned from all forums.

There are ALOT of web'master forums out there, trust me. Do a few searches and you'll be fine.

*Avoid the "one million unique visitors in a month" claims, their a waste of time

I've seen some forums with "Spam" areas for exactly this purpose, but I don't think those threads get much views.

You can put a link in your sig though and post ***** like mad...

You could also try gettin traffic thru backlinking.. submit some of you content (re-worded of course) to sites like goarticles.com

when people look up a topic.. lets say "website advertising" then they may click your submitted article. If this think its good content they may take ur article and put it on their site ONLY if they keep the "about the author" profile. Backlink it to your page.

www.copyscape.com and check where your article is being used a month or two

theres Alot of ways you can go about "advertising"
