Advertising Resources - Solutions In Advertising : 1- ViralPond - There is more to ViralPond than one might think initially. It is a resource that helps you with all you do in the online business promotion world. It does have strong focus on building a few business opportunities. However, it is far more than a downline builder. Membership is free, but free members do not receive much. There is a one time fee of $37 to upgrade. Upgraded members receive mini pages and more...however the most important section is the 'Walk Thru' area. The downline builder section is primarily focused on GDI, PyraBang, and Freebie Force. 2- MarketingPond - I'm very proud of Marketing Pond altho it does have many junk enrollments. In other words, often when something is free, people join but don't look twice. Those that have taken advantage of what Marketing Pond offers, have discovered how to make free money online. Members that have never made a dime online before, are making money and some of them, a whole lot of it. However, Marketing Pond contains many free to earn programs that are in fact advertising resources. I must also add that ViralPond above and MarketingPond is almost like a direct list builder of sorts. This is because many programs do not give you contact information of those you sponsor. In network marketing, it is very important to have contact information of those you sponsor....kind of tough to call it NETWORK MARKETING if you don't have direct contact with those you enroll. As a ViralPond and/or MarketingPond member, you receive notifications of each member you sponsor... thereby being able to contact them and explain the system, build relationships, and simply put...network. 3- GlobalTeamClub - This program is a downline builder for advertising sources. Most ad networks/programs will give you more the more people you sponsor. Global Team Club is very simplistic and just makes good sense. 4- TrafficWaveProfits - This one actually relays a few tricks and tips and you can get all the information free. Especially if you are a newbie but I can tell you, some old time marketers are not even aware of all the tips here...of course, they wouldn't be since some of them I invented myself years ago. They work, if you do. 5- Rent-a-List - Perhaps you're familiar with Hits4Pay and DealsnCash. Rent-a-List is a brick and mortar company that owns several long running, credible advertising programs online. There are various options of advertising offered. Often they send out specials and special codes in which you can discounts on advertising. They also will help you with ad copy creation. 6- ReadersPond - There is various advertising options with this one and prices are very low. Readers Pond has not been online a long time but has more members than most PTR's that have been online for years. The membership base is growing and the program is growing in popularity and ads. 7- DonkeyMails - This is one of the largest PTR programs online. A key to saving money on advertising is to utilize some of the PTR programs out there. But I must WARN you, only use the one's that are credible. Many PTR programs are shams and scams! The worse part is, you won't even know you been scammed! Believe me, I KNOW my business and I only list honest PTR's that truly give you what you pay for. By utilizing credible PTR programs, you can often gain a lot of credits that can be exchanged for banner advertising, paid to click advertising, and solo email advertising. 8- NoMinimum - This is another PTR that is associated with DonkeyMails and I highly suggest as well. 10- AdvertPond - This is a text ad exchange. There is free, pro, and gold memberships. You can gain points or purchase various advertising. Points can be exchanged for advertising. Solo email ads, banner ads, text ads, link ads, login ads, and more! 11- TrafficSwarm - Most everyone has heard of TrafficSwarm which is one of the largest and longest running traffic exchanges online. If you choose to use this one, place in at least two websites, even if it is the same websites you are advertising. If you only list one website/ad, views will be very slow forthcoming. They do sell traffic credits but it is a tad pricey. 12- TrafficRoundUp - I really like this traffic exchange and perhaps it's because it is so simple to use. It's been online several years, credible admin, and advertising costs are fair. 13- Yuwie - This is a social network that pays you. It has a ten level downline matrix. The advertising is probably overlooked by most members in that, they don't even think about the options for advertising. There are various areas inside Yuwie that members can actually get advertising at a rather reasonable price. I'm not talking about the big pop ups ... as that would be pricey. There are various pages in Yuwie such as the members control panel page that you can actually purchase a small text ad and/or small banner advertising. The best way to handle the enormous amount of social network sites out there is to .. first .. create a text document on your computer about whatever it is you are advertising. Save the document. Now as you join social networks and set up a blog, you can open your word document and copy/paste to the blog. Saves an enormous amount of time. 14- ApSense - There's a lot to this one and you can also earn money with it. It is a large social business network. You'll need a pot of coffee to manage your way through it but once you have it all set up, it's well worth it. They sell solo email advertising also. Not bad price either. Last I looked, it is $50 to send a solo ad. They pay their members five cents for clicking the solo emails. I click them so no doubt thousands of others do too. 16- AdLandPro - This is a classified ad website that I have been a member of for ten years. You'll need to get your popcorn and soft drink for this one too. However, once you set up everything, it's a very good classified program that can net results. More recently, they started a new option that you can choose to upgrade and you'll be able to send your solo ad to the entire database of members. Advertising is fair and not expensive. You can also earn money with it. 17- TrafficWave - One of the most overlooked areas in marketing online is autoresponders. Some people come and go in them like the wind. Although Traffic Wave is a business opportunity in that it offers a 3 x 10 matrix, residual income, leader bonus, fast start bonus, etc...it is a must have solution to building lists of prospects that want your offers. I prefer TrafficWave over other autoresponder systems for several reasons : low price, professional, long running, more features than most, great support and admin. 18- Aweber - This is another autoresponder system I utilize. It has an affiliate program option. TrafficWave and Aweber are the only two autoresponder systems I suggest. 21- WordLinx - Actually, this is the longest running PTC program. It was the first. Solid program with honest admin. Prices are fair. Members can in fact convert their earnings to advertising. They also sell banner advertising. 22- ClixSense - A top PTC program. Different from most paid to click programs and legit. Very fair prices. Lots of Targeting options. If whatever it is you are advertising, cost money, target your ads here to 'premium' members. Earnings can be converted to advertising. 23- Skype - This is free voip service. It does offer some upgrade options. I don't use it per se. I only use it when I want to go way above and beyond to promote something..and I am going to tell you right here, right now, how to do just that. First is to download it by going to the skype website. After installation is completed, click on the 'options' and everything to see what it is. Upload your picture or some sort of image. Enter your website url that you are promoting into the 'Options' setting area. In the 'About Me' area, place your ad copy. Be sure and click to save everything as you enter it. Now that you have it all set up, it's time to get the contacts rolling in. Click 'Contacts' and then in the 'find' field box, type in a keyword. After typing in the keyword, a list of skype users will come up. Type a little hello message and add contact. Ok so what is a keyword? Examples: business, mlm, make money online, marketing. As you get the hang of it, you'll see that skype can be a very great free resource for advertising, gaining contacts, building business relationships, and of course...getting referrals and/or making sales. Don't wear yourself out with it. Try it every now and then. Try adding contacts every few days. 24- ClixSia - An honest PTR that has more PTC than PTR. Very low advertising prices. 25- EasyHits4U - Another favorite traffic exchange. Various of ways to earn cash plus credits. Cash earnings can be converted to credits/advertising. 26- MyLot - MyLot is a discussion type program. Read the rules. What I have found is to do searches for the type of discussions that are related to what you are promoting indirectly. You can of course, start your own discussions. To just post a link is a bad idea. To just post an ad, is a bad idea. However, if you actually post an interesting discussion along with your link, you are more likely to get takers. Same goes when posting replies. Don't just post an ad in reply to a discussion. Jump in and really discuss the topic at hand and then include your link. 27- BigCrumbs - This is actually my favorite free to earn program. But there is a lot more to it than that. BigCrumbs pays it's members down through several levels, rebate commissions on stores shopped through the BigCrumbs member area. This highly professional program almost functions like a social network in that you can add friends, post to friends, and even a member forum that has an advert category. 28- Online Newspapers - No link to click on this one. Probably a strong looked over advertising resource online is newspaper websites. Today, almost every city and town has an online newspaper website. The smaller the population of the city, usually is going to mean cheaper advertising. I've found that banner advertising can be very cheap on newspaper websites. Of course, you won't find dirt cheap advertising on such sites like the 'Chicago Tribune'. Just go to google, start out by looking up some cities/town newspapers in your area. 29- MyWizardAds - Not sure why I even bother to place my ref link to this one because I have never, ever been credited for affiliate sales with this one. Still, it may help you and that is what this page is about, giving you solutions in advertising. MyWizardAds, is a newsletter/ezine advertising source. I have never found 'classified' advertising to be worthy in the newsletters/ezines at MyWizardAds. In addition, if you choose a group package, be prepared for a headache. Classified group packages, well, you will have to subscribe to them all, try and keep up with dates that your ad is to go out, etc. The best way to go at MyWizardAds is SOLO advertising. Choose one or two newsletters to place a solo ad. I warn you tho, as with any ezine/newsletter advertising, THINK and create a very good solo ad and include your contact info in the ad. Your ad will do far better if you create a good ad and have complete contact info so readers can contact you if they have questions about your offer. 30- 2BucksAnAd - This site sells ezine and newsletter advertising as cheap as $2. However, now I think the minimum purchase amount is $10. A good idea is to open a gmail account just for ezine/newsletter advertising. That way, you can stay organized with your advertising in these various newsletters, plus not jam up your regular email account. As always, create good ads first. Save ads you create to a document on your computer such as word pad, you'll save time. 31- YourEzAds - New in 2009. Join this one free but after joining, keep an eye out of the special upgrade pages. They have monthly fees but the special life-time pages, you can get life-time upgrade with no monthly fees..so watch those pages. You'll get some emails about every day but not many. You can post text ads and they sell solo ads too. You can gain more credits by clicking ads. This is a very good source that works. Of course, the solo advertising is best. 32- Matrix Mails - I've found Matrix Mails to be about the best in regards to advertising within a Paid to Read email program. It's free to be a member and some credits/points can in fact be converted to advertising. The paid to click banner advertising is about as worthy if not worthier than most places. I never see too many paid to click banners, usually no more than 5 or 6 listed at any time...this is good because less competition factor at any point. The solo advertising is the best. You can convert earnings to get solo advertising or you can just purchase solo advertising. That's all for now but I have lots, lots, lots more!
