If you're on a bidget www.advertwizard.com are selling banner placement for what seems like a very low cost, and the minimum buy is £5. You can do some level of geo-targeting if memory serves me. Other than that my only other suggestion would be some careful expense with a PPC search engine.

pauliv, you might also look around for some specialized directories, some are free. If it's regionally oriented, we've got a few forums that are region-specific that might already have some information for you.

i use google adwords - very cheap and very easy to target your audience precisely. others recommend trying paid listings on overture and looksmart etc. take a look through the other forums here for more information.

Hi :-) I didnt mean SPAM. I hate it too, like the others, especially when we talk about e-commerce? By mails, i meant opt in e-mails.

Opt-In email and email newsletters are a good form of promotion and advertising. It is a very good way to stay in touch and up to date with current clients, potential clients, users, etc.

That may be a good avenue to pursue, but first get this information: - How many subscribers - How much for the ad - Average CTR - Average conversion rate (if tracked)

>> what is average conversion rate? the average ratio of those who view the ad to those who pay up for whatever you are advertising views : sales Example If a newsletter has 10,000 subscribers, with a CTR (clickthrough rate) of 1%, and a conversion rate of 1%, you make ((10000/100)/100) = 1 sale If you paid £100 for that sale, your cost of customer acquisition is £100/customer (obviously, I've picked numbers for easy working here) You then have to make a judgement as to whether £100/customer is a supportable rate for your products. If you sell pencils, probably not. If you sell prestige sports cars, probably yes :) If you have the right product, and you do your research properly, you may well find that the Internet offers a lower cost of acquistion than traditional offline media campaigns, and if correctly handled, also provides better information on what works and what doesn't
