1. Trade links with other web sites. Go to a search engine and type in words from your keyword list. This way you can find other sites in your target area. Go to each site and find out if the site would complement your site. Send the owner of the web site a request to exchange links.

2. Write a Free eBook and give it away. Or find other Free eBooks and write to the publisher and see if they would be willing to put your ad in their eBook in exchange for promoting it in your eZine. You can put your ad in my eBook free for promoting it in your eZine. Fill out the form here. (http://ipromoteit.com/ebookideasbrandedcover.html)
