Dear All,

I would like to know how to place and word free ads on the Internet that get excellent exposure when people do searches for things.

The above question arose from this thread:

Thanks in advance.

I am here, Always_helping, and I am going to "un-cloak" so that you know that I am logged into the site!

What is it that you are wanting to advertise, please? We have to be careful here so that what is posted here isn't an actual advertisement because this site gets such excellent exposure when people do search for things on the Internet.

Thanks!

Now, I notice that you are offline here. I was really hoping that we could have a dialogue about this live so that not only you could benefit from the information but others also.

I have a lot of questions that I would like to ask you in order to help you. I have been doing online advertising for over three years now. I do know the sites that work and those that don't as well as the words that a person needs to use in order to get the most exposure when people do searches for things.

I do hope that you return, soon.. :)

I am working with a couple of entreprenuers and we are marketing forms of transportation that are economical. Think of high MPG vehicles, scooters, electric bicycles and I think you get the picture.

Look forward to your reply.

Hello, Always_helping! I am here!

Below, is a quote of something that I have already placed on another thread somewhere on this site.

You do need to advertise. One of things that I do for a living is that I am a house painter. I really don't get many calls from my Yellow Page ads. But, most of my new business is from ads that I place on the Internet. The following is from an answer that I have already placed elsewhere on this site.

There are many places where you can have a free website or blog where you could advertise your business or anything else for that matter. Some of them can be found by clicking on the following searches.

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Free+Blog

Although I am in the Yellow Pages of the local phone book, most of my new business comes from the free ads that I have placed on the Internet in some way. It does take some time to set things up. But, once you have done it, you are set. You just need to keep track of when you might need to renew your ads. Some of them will let you know when it's time to renew, and most of them won't On some free advertising sites, your ads might not need to be renewed for years. For others, it ranges from maybe 14 days to 90 days.

I copy and paste what I have advertised into a message in my Drafts folder in the email program that is my primary one, and that would be Outlook Express. I also have a file in my email program that is titled "Passwords." It includes all passwords used as well as user names. Not all sites are going to let you use the same password, and the user name that you select might not be available on a particular site.

A really important thing to remember when doing online advertising is that it's not necessarily your name or the name of your business that people are going to be looking for, but what you do and where you are located. So, how you word your ad and the additional keywords that you use in it are very important. Google doesn't look for repeated words in site. However, some other search engines do.

There are a host of free advertising sites available. Most of the best ones that get the best exposure are on the following list. I have been doing online advertising for over three years now. It has paid off...

One time, someone found me looking for goats in Iowa. They are an animal rescue. They saw my ad on a site where one of my piano tuning ads was located and decided that they wanted to have their piano tuned.

I love it when people find me by accident! It could happen for you too with your business!

I do also frequently drive around and post my small advertising "shingle" with the pull-off tabs anyplace where I can find a free, public bulletin board where I can post them. These can be places like grocery stores, restaurants, bars, Laundromats, bowling alleys, public libraries, etc.

Here is the list of free advertising websites that seem to get the best exposure when people are doing searches for what they want on the Internet. Some of them are even international as far as where the ads reach, in case there is someone who might read what I have posted who wants to advertise on an international level. There are sites that don't get good exposure and, I don't use them. A person would have to be a member of and frequent those particular sites in order to know what is listed on them. I even post on sites that are located in other countries because the exposure is so good!
