Cross promotion is, without doubt, a powerful technique used by many people to increase the exposure of their products or services when they start their Online Business.
When you start your Online Business, decide what type of promotional exchange methods you would be interested in practicing and contact other fellow Online Business owners to discuss an exchange for mutual benefits.
Here are some frequently-used and time-tested cross promoting techniques you can use to promote your Online Business:
[1] Link Exchanges
Exchanging links with web sites similar to yours should be one of the first things you should do on the first day your Online Business is open. By exchanging links with similar web sites, you will not only increase your Search Engine ranking, but you will also increase your web site traffic and Google page ranking.
[2] E-zine Ad Swaps
E-zine advertising is one of the best forms of advertising on the Internet. By swapping ads with other E-zine publishers, you can run your ad in other publications free of charge.
[3] Have Ebook Exchanges
You can cooperate with other Internet Marketers or Internet Business Owners in creating free E-books to freely distribute. The free E-book will mutually benefit and promote both of you while providing valuable information for your visitors as long the E-book is viral in nature.
[4] Give Free Bonuses
Free bonuses are often used as an incentive to increase sales. Provide and exchange bonuses with other Online Business owners. This technique will not only increase your sales, but will also promote your products and services.
[5] Establishing Joint Ventures
This is by far one of the most powerful forms of cross-promotion technique practiced by top Online Business persons. You and another Online Business person will partner together in a marketing effort that will result in mutual benefits and profits.
As you might have noticed by now, the techniques presented above do not require any investment from you in monetary terms, just some hard and smart effort on your part!
