I
have listed hundreds of good places to list your
product in free
classifieds or paid classifieds - don't put too much faith in this - do a few here and there - no one really reads them anymore - they are only interested in entering their own ad. there are over 100,000
places to draw business from. GO HERE
Just
get you a system set up - everyday do the
same procedure - list in as many classifieds as
you can - in as many e-zines as you can. Getting
your name out there is the secret.
FFA
pages - Same here - don't waste too much time on these - again, no one reads them - they only want to put their own ads there, but there are some good ones, so it is not totally a waste.there
are literaly thousands of these pages - make sure
you have a throw away e-mail before you post even
one of these.
FFA
Pages are not my favorite places - but it is
necessary because the search engines judge you as
to the links pointing to your pages so the more
links you can get the better you will show in the
search engines. Not just any link - but quality links.
Stay clear of LinksToYou.com. The search engines will penalize you for these.
Newsgroups - This is one area I
will refer you to an expert in this field. My
knowledge in this area is just beginning. So to
find out how to post to the newsgroups to best
bring you more business, just go HERE.
Exchanging
LInks - As
you search the web - when you find someone with
the same object and interest as you - write and
ask them if they will link to you - The best
approach to this is to link them to your pages
and then write and tell them you feel they have
something to offer your viewers and that you have
linked to them - and would they return the link
to you. Most of the time they will do this
because it is helpful to have links pointing to
their site.
LIST SERVERS
I am in the process of updating this section.
For
awhile, until you get established, you can manage
your mail list in your own e-mail.
Posting
to search engines. - You will find all over the web how
important your listing in the search engines are
to your success.
My
advice to you on this is to list with the search
engines every month until you are listed, run
your pages through the Meta Tag Builder and place
these meta tags into your HTML and go on to more
productive work on your product.
GO
TO META TAG BUILDER - DOWNLOAD

engine. Just copy and paste this list to your
site on some page.

How
do the big guys get listed? - Some pay big bucks to
get their pages listed. Some have software that
lists them automatically.
Here
is what you can do - when you find a page that is
high in the rankings - from the tool bar, click
on View - then click source - you can see exactly
what is being done to help them along the way -Don't
copy their HTML- but get ideas of how to add the
right meta tags to your files.
Another
little tip I found out from a former employee of
one of the search engines. Instead of listing
every page, just list every page on your site on
one page and the spiders from the search engines
will check out every link. I tried it and was on
the computer when the spider clicked onto this
page and my Human Click shows when someone is in
the site. The Spider just went down the list and
clicked on every page.
See
how to do it here:

Just
submit that page instead of listing every page by
itself.
