subject: Marketing Your Online Home Business For Free [print this page] Have you ever received a free sample in the mail? Its kind of exciting to get that tiny package that holds a product you didnt have to pay for. It doesnt matter if its a box of laundry detergent we get in the mail or a breakfast sausage being served at the grocery store, we all like getting something for free. That is especially true for online home business owners.
Online business owners are always looking for a cheap or free way to increase traffic to their site and advertise their products. These are the keys to building a successful online home business. Believe it or not, these free opportunities exist, though they may take some time and work to get started. Here are just a few:

Two of the most popular traffic exchanges are Traffic Swarm and Easy Hits 4U. Both of these cost nothing to join but offer premium options for a small fee.
Social Marketing: Facebook and Twitter are great places to get your name out there without spending money. You simply set up a Facebook or Twitter account for your business. You can post updates about new products, business progress, or special deals.
Market Articles: Write articles related to your web site or line of products and post them on sites like Squidoo and ezines.
Blogging: With the right mixture of content, appeal, and networking a blog can effectively generate interest in your web site and company. It can also help brand your company by setting up a tone and appealing to your particular clientele.
Exchange Links: The easiest way to exchange links is to type your web sites keywords into a major search engine, visit the sites of the top results and ask for the link exchange. This can be time consuming, but very effective.
