I’ve recently started a new home based business and I was wondering if anyone knew any sure-fire ways to promote my business? I prefer free, but cheap is also good.

advertising is very expensive if you want cheap make a poster or something that’s your best bet
Go on a bunch of bulletin boards and post positive things about it acting as a customer. Sounds a bit like lying I know, but I’ve heard there’s a bunch of studies that show if applied enough, it works. Lots of companies do it, and nothing is better than word of mouth advertising (even if technically that “word” is coming from the owner’s mouth.)
You have to balance Internet advertising with real world adverts. In the real world, people may be interested in your ad, but they are not on a computer so the never make it to your site.
The best way is to get yourself up in the google rankings. This takes time and effort but it is free, although there are no guarantees.
On the other hand there is PPC advertising, where google display your ad on someones site and you pay every time someone clicks on the ad. This can be expensive, and even though it is a lot more likely to get you attention there is still no guarantee the users will convert into a sale or whatever.
Another tip is next time you post like this, include your URL and get it on your profile. Then you get some exposure from people looking at this post. It all ads up.
