So it is Gumtree?? your post was confusing with upagumtree. Sorry probably just me being stupid. LOL.

Gasangel if you need any help with gumtree I can do that for you.
The key to Gumtree is to post loads of ads every day to really make the most of the 6 million monthly visitors to the site. You will need to know the main demographic and the busiest categories to go at.

Let me know as I have a whole instruction written up in word on exactly how to post hundreds of ads every week on gumtree.
I am in MLM and recruit people every month without spending a penny online.

Happy to help if I can.

Jay

Would I be able to get a copy of that word document also please? i have tried gumtree a few times but with small amounts of traffic.

I can give my meail over PM if you like.

I also use UKSBD and have been really impressed.

Thanks UKSBD :)

This discussion is really interesting and am learning loads. I am a very small business and don't have the capital to go down the professional PR advertising route yet.

I have been feeling a bit down about it all as getting traffic and customers is a difficult one, so thanks for a great thread.

It's not actually 'on line' but-i offered to write a cloumn on my subject for the local paper & They accepted with relish-As Im a landscape gardener
it was a column on gardening.This week I got a whole page to myself-which included five hundred words of what to do this week in the garden type stuff plus loads of subtle and unsubtle reminders to their huge local readership that i'm actually a professional that they can hire!
In this week's edition was a huge nine inch by five inch colour photo of me stood in front of my product (nice flower bed outside a prestigious RECOGNISEABLE building) How's that for free advertising
Many of you could blow your own trumpet this by posing as the local expert on....whatever you are good at...Id like to hear that someone else tries it-and gets success like me-good luck folks-!!

thanks gasangel for the referral of the all singing all dancing mega company in china(ill stor their details) they'll do fine at the later stage-Im still at the can't afford a ticket to china and don't trust anyone I can't go and punch locally type of thing-
its horrible developing a prototype-You tend to want to keep it close to your chest but can't.
If i end up in china knocking out thousands that will be good Ill be happy with selling my first fifty in the next four months and see how it sells-wish me luck.

I've come across lots of companies that have given me stories of free advertising - the type that actually converts.

But does the quality of the leads suffer when you are sourcing customers for free? or does it just take more time than a paid for "big hit" advertising campaign?

What are your stories and results from advertising that did'nt cost a bean but brought business your way?

I got really good resopose from yahoo answers. It can be strange but I got some good clients from there. Well, I found yahoo answer good for me.:D

Of course,you are completed exposed and be placed on first colume when your articles is with rich contents and enough trade leads and keywords.
Best way is different to everybody,After all,is the best fit depends on which business field you are in.
There is no such thing as a free lunch,than in the ending we will paid money for advertising.

Good luck!
