Do you have any additional creative ideas for FREE advertising?
Other than typical social media tips, like facebook or affiliate marketing on forums o blogs. Doesn’t have to be necessarily online.
Its for an advertising of a new branch of an already popular pub & restaurant.
Hi
If it is for a new pub or such like then try contacting the local press for a story about “business expanding during credit crunch” !!!
The press have enough bad news for the papers so a bright happy story gives publicity and they fill their pages.

How to promote online dating sites as an affiliate using free traffic?
I’m a newbie to affiliate marketing & I’ve been studying this since a month. I’m trying to promote a dating website as an affiliate & I’ve signed up for a pay per lead program (i get paid if some one signs up for free) Now i dono how to promote this using free traffic! I’ve tried facebook groups but even though people join the group (they click the link) but they dont sign up for the website.So i thought of using squidoo but then they consider my article as spam & not letting it to publish. So now what should i do? should i go for blogging??? or free website (weebly)?? if blogging is the option how can i promote it? sholud i have to write articles about dating tips or review about websites? but these are the usual.. They dont seem to work now i guess.. Any other great new ideas guys??? I need your help. Anyhelp, ideas, suggestions etc are welcome. hope you can guide me.. thank you!
You could sign up on dating forums and put your URL in your forum sig, make some posts (not spam) and you would be surprised how much traffic that can bring you and it would be targeted traffic – people with an interest in your niche – it can bring a good conversion rate with it. You could always pay someone to post for you if you prefer.
Also, make sure you are promoting your site well with off page SEO eg gaining backlinks through blog commenting (on relevant blogs), directory submissions, perhaps write and submit dating articles to article directories etc. Doing this should improve your SERPS ratings and bring you organic search engine traffic.
I need advice for Amazon Affiliate Marketing/Google Adsense…?
I’m looking to utilize both Amazon Affiliate Marketing and Adsense. I like to write so my plan is to make a site about movies, games, and music videos. I also want to do a comprehensive site with my money making tips as well.
Firstly, I’m not sure if I should put this all on one site or each separate?
Secondly, are these all good avenues to use for Amazon Affiliate Marketing and Adsense?
Last but not least, is it best to buy a domain or use free site hosting for this?
