  1. People like to win free things, whether it the things they win are essential or not. Everyone simply loves a freebie. To advertise your site and increase your visitors, you might want to consider giving a free e-book to anyone who will join the site’s mailing list.
  2. Give away something more valuable like free samples of your products. In exchange you may ask your customers to give a testimonial. Testimonials add to the effectiveness of your marketing.
  3. Gain people’s trust by creating an eBook you made yourself. This will put you in the “Expert” category and people will look to you for questions. They will trust you and your product.
  4. Have a link where customers can get the website in the form of an eBook. This makes you more accessible to them. Or if you are into direct mail, include a DVD or a CD of your site in the package. This ca be given away by the recipient of the package and can increase your sales.
  5. Offer something for free for each purchase the customer makes. This always translated to value for money.
  6. Create a referral system. Give a freebie to someone who can refer a certain number of e-mail addresses of people they can get to visit your site. This will help create a mailing list for you.
  7. Create an eBook directory. Place all the websites you have in that directory. Give another freebie to someone who places an ad in their own website that links to that directory you have created.
  8. Make the eBook easily accessible and transferable. This can help your loyal customers distribute it quicker and easier, too.
  9. Conduct a market research based on the contact information visitors give in your website. This will help you identify the markets you are not so strong on, and you can focus on them more.
  10. Increase the number of people visiting your site for advertisement purposes by offering a place in your website directory. This can be used as advertisement space and you can even charge the people who will use it.
  11. Take care of your customers and give them monthly eBooks or newsletters. This will let them feel pampered and remembered. You can place new products by the end of the newsletter to keep customer coming back for more.
  12. Increase traffic by submitting your eBooks to websites that have shareware. This will allow people to download it even without visiting your site just yet. After reading the eBook about your products, they will be enticed to visit your site.
  13. Sell reprints to those who want to sell the eBook you made.
  14. Hold a contest for the websites that best advertise your content and give them free space in your website directory.
  15. Tell people about your site and your eBook, and ask them for referrals, too.
  16. Cross promote your eBook with other products and services. Some people may not be satisfied with just a freebie, so show those people exactly what you have in your company.
  17. Give incentives to customers who are subscribed to your newsletters. These are people who spread the word around and get people to visit your site
  18. Give away a freebie to those who will become your affiliate. This will increase the number of people who will advertise the website.

  15. Hi, Just found your blog surfing on the internet! I am too much interested in the information like you are providing. Why you do not write a new ebook and publish it by collecting more information on this topic. NO! Do not take me wrong! I am not a publisher. Ha! Ha! Ha! You have written in a detailed manner that’s why I am asking you about the ebooks. Have you ever thought of any type of ebook and in its business. It is a really hardwork to create a blog like yours and to maintain it. But you have done really a great job. Congrates! I have few questions. Do you think that blogs are better than ebooks for providing information and making money. I Just take the ebooks as products. I have never tried to write any ebook and to do any sort of business. If I say something about my website here, then you will consider this comment as a spam and NO One like that. But would like to say, that while selling FREE EBOOKS I have made such a huge amount, just in few days, that you will be amazed! If you visit my website (by clicking on my name in this comment) then you are bound to be surprised. I am sure this is a new technique of selling, I have found over the net. But lets talk about writing ebooks and providing unique information to the internet community, have you ever tried writing anything and publishing it? Do you also sell ebooks? What is your experience? I am interested in knowing about it or your experiments? Waiting for reply – Thanks, Regards
