Effective ways to promote your business online

1. Effective Ways To Promote
Your Business

2. I am going to give you a list of
effective ways that you can use to
promote your business.
I recommend that you try a few of
them and test your results to see
which ones are performing well for
you in your particular niche.

3. Content marketing
I believe that writing content and
distributing it online to high traffic
websites and your own website is
a very good way to promote your
online business.

4. By writing content you are
enabling people to understand
more about your business and
more importantly, learn more
about you as a person and
whether you are the kind of
person that they would be happy
doing business with.

5. Here are a list of sites that you can
add content to:
- blogs
- squidoo
- help pages
- article directories
- Facebook
- forums

6. You can also turn your written content
into a slide presentation and use
videos to promote your business.
Or turn your content into a PDF and
upload it to PDF sharing sites.
Or turn your articles into an audio with
you talking through the article and
upload it to podcasting sites.

7. This is the great benefit of using
content to promote your business.
You are able to leverage it and
reuse it in different formats.

8. Social bookmarking
To increase your visibility it is very easy
to bookmark the content that you
have written.
I would recommend only using a few
bookmarking sites as this is what
Google recommends.
StumbleUpon Digg and Reddit all have
high traffic.

9. Social media
Use social media to make people
aware of content that you have
written.
The best one for this is twitter as it
enables you to write a quick update
message for your content.
Google plus and LinkedIn are also very
good for increasing your visibility.

10. Make sure that you get involved in
groups or follow people that have
similar interests as your business.

11. There are plenty more places
online that you can use to spread
the word about your business but
it is important that you only try a
few sources at a time.

12. This is because it becomes very
hard to test and to track where
the majority of your visits are
coming from and this is a critical
part of your business if you are
going to optimise and become
highly effective.
