What is the best way to get people to my retail website? I have very little money to promote my web site.?

1. Submit your site to major search engines, especially Google 2. Submit your site to major web site directories, especially DMOZ 3. Exchange links with other webmasters, but only with sites that are related to yours (reciprocal linking) 4. Consider publishing monthly e-newsletter to keep your current user base to come back to your site 5. Consider hosting discussion forums Other Promotional Techniques * Add your site as part of your email signature. You can also add it as part of your signature when you write on message boards and newsgroups. For example: Pinyo Bhulipongsanon http://www.greatnexus.com/ * Strategically mention your web site in other message boards and newsgroups with a similar topic. I also think one of the cheapest ways to advertise is email marketing. Buy bulk emails, and send them out. Here's a good resource for email marketing http://qualitybase.org/emails.aspx

Open up an ebay store

I recommend: http://www.esmartbusiness.com and http://www.bannerparade.com if you want a customized PPC (pay per click) campaign, please feel free to contact me!

Have you thought about pay per click programs? The two biggest, I think, are Yahoo! and Google A few free resources – check out the sources box for links: 1) Create a blog pertaining to your field 2) Use Yahoo! Local & Yahoo! Groups – Be sure to read the TOS for each one! 3) Write articles pertaining to your field and/or expertise. Also, consider signing up for an affiliate program. These programs enable you to advertise on other's sites (your affiliates) and once a sale is made to you, your affiliates & the program are paid a commission. I listed a few handy sites & articles relating to marketing, promotion & advertising. Here are some book titles that are relevant: * 301 Do-It-Yourself Marketing Ideas: From America's Most Innovative Small Companies by Sam Decker * Off The Wall Marketing Ideas: Jumpstart Your Sales without Busting Your Budget by Nancy Michaels, Debbi J.
