Posting a free classified ad online is an easy way to sell unwanted household goods. It is also a great way to promote an online business. Post a Web site link on the pages of free classified sites that permit this practice. Then, visit some social community pages and post answers and questions relevant to the business, being sure to include the business Web site link in the post.

Making contributions to relevant blogs, forums, and Web sites establishes you as an authority on the topic. When a signature file with your name and Web site are included, people will click to learn more about the company. Sharing the business site on social bookmarking sites is another very effective free promotional tool.

Some Web sites serve as repositories for hand built pages that represent a person's view of something, like a sport or a local restaurant. These are free and easy to establish and pay royalties to those who maintain them. Posting a page on one of these sites establishes the credibility of a business and increases traffic to the company Web page.

Few people would pass up the chance to have free promotion that does not require any effort. Automated marketing like feeds attracts customers to a company Web site whenever the page content is updated. Automatic blogs function similarly, providing useful knowledge and repeatedly directing prospects to the business site so they can make a purchase.
