Promote Your Site with Blogging or Articles
Another tactic you could use for promoting your site for free is to get into the conversation on other websites that are in your niche. For example, if you are selling protein products, you could find websites dedicated to exercise and body-building to promote your products. You could comment on articles on the site, participate in the forums, and subtly promote your site while still adding to the conversation. This is great for building up your backlinks as well! However, be sure not to go overboard with promoting as some site owners and users might find this offensive. More people are accepting and receptive to advertising if it’s not as invasive.
