Free Advertising

sourcer · 05-31-2007, 07:49 AM

I've searched the forum and noticed that there is no thread about AdGridwork.

They are a free contextual advertising which I think is a good way of getting traffic for webmasters that cannot afford spending a lot of money on ads.

I have wrote more on my blog: -

What do you guys think about this kind of programs ?

It seems like the post was edited by a moderator, I have sent you a PM with the link...

It's also in the feed on the left.

But no, v7n does not allow links that promote your own websites. Feel free to post the entire article content, but do not link to your site.

Thanks laura,

There is no need to post the entire article if there is a feed link in left

Free advertising sources are usually lower level arenas save for forums. I do know that lots and lots of people start into our neck of the wood using startpage programs. They are free and popular with newbie marketers. What the heck, when you sign up you usually get enough credits to run your site past a few eyeballs

Free is free...

Article writing though is your very best bet for "free advertising."

I agree. I abandoned the idea that something worth can be free. If you want to get great service/product, you should pay for it.

Good services should be paid for, but I actually meant "hey free is free" lol as in if you run across something short of nasty FFA's and the like, and it looks like a possibility go for it.

You never know... you might run into that free pot of gold

Well I pointed out that this may be good for webmasters that cannot afford paid advertising campaigns, It brings some traffic and is targeted.

I agree with you about the free services, you can't compare with paid ones but you never know when you can find an exception.

This is strange... So people can promote their blogs on the left feed, the sites on the signature link, but no particular articles within the content of the entry?
Not even with a rel=nofollow attribute? I mean, I understand why not giving the link love, but if we post the article's content, wouldn't that raise duplicate content problems?

Ask John. I don't do SEO stuffs - I just do what he asks when moderating.

I have not read the blog, but it says in the post that AdGridwork is a free contextual advertising site.

So you are saying that we get our site added with keywords or whatever to a control panel and then you promote it on other sites where it will be contextually targetted to the content.

If that is the way it works then why would other sites want to show this instead of Adsense.
