Putting up advertisements for your business are the essential basics to pull in any potential customers to your sales site, irregardless of which business you are in. However, a lot of business people failed to do so after having spent a ton of efforts and money on marketing and promoting their products. But you know that the sales returns are not dependence on the amount of money spent on advertising your product. In fact you can advertise for free and yet get massive return from your sales. And here are 6 ways to advertise your internet business for absolutely free.

Existing Customer Follow-up
Based on research marketing survey, it is 5 times easier to sell to your past clients than to get a new customer. Thus, your existing customers are definitely most targeted buyers. Since you have established your reputation and contact with your existing customers, you can sell something else to them by direct mail. It is by far the most efficient way to get more business. You can even twist around to acquire your existing customer as your “free sales person” by tell him/her if they are to brings in 3 new customers for you, they get your new product for a huge discount or even free.

Articles Marketing
This technique is one long-term advertising strategy you can explore. The most amazing part about articles publishing is that it can be free. The reason why I say "can be" is because you can also hire someone to write articles (Ghostwritten) for you. You can also hire services to automatically publish articles for you. But you can choose to do it yourself, it only cost you a bit of your time, you get sense of pride and accomplishment for publishing something you know of. There are so many resources on web providing all these services.

Blogging
Another free marketing technique you can deploy to draw visitors to your site. You can setup a blogger account free and Blogger.com and later move and republish your blog to your own domain if you wish to. Though Google provide free server for your blog, there are better benefits if you have your own blog hosted under your own domain. So what do you write in your blog? It can be anything, your thoughts, your product review, etc. Remember to point links related to your business to your homepage. Adding rich content to your blog regularly can generate free targeted traffic to your site that never stop coming.

Forum Marketing
Forums are places where targeted people with like interests can congregate and talk about what they like. But you cannot simply join a forum as newbie and sell and advertise your products right away. You need to build relationship with forumers, you need to add value and become a respected member within the forum. Only then people accept your information. For start you need to be actively involved in the forum, post valuable information, ask real question, answer questions before sending people to your pages.

Social Bookmarking
Social Bookmarking site help user to create pages about themselves, build network of friends and getting to know other people. Some site like mySpace.com and Squidoo.com. Here allow you to post content that you can later point interested people to your pre-sale page.

Writing Testimonials
Writing testimonials for 3rd parties’ websites not just served as confident booster for visitors to the 3rd parties websites. But it also means to create another channel to attract these visitors to your own website. Visitors usually are keen to know the source and reputation of the testimonial writers. Therefore, don’t be surprise to see interested visitors will click to your website to understand about you, and therefore bring additional traffic to your site.

Pay-Per-Click
You may be a little surprise to see PPC Ad as a free advertisement, but it is indeed no gimmick. Few are actually aware that you can advertise your Ads on Google AdWords for Free. It is legal and the fact that you need not worry about the cost per click, you always get rank top 3 positions. However, I cannot give away the secret here, because I’m not authorized to publicly review. But I have been using this “trade secret” to pull in massive traffic to my website for free.
