Press Release Body: If you are like most internet based home business entrepreneurs
then marketing your product and driving increasing traffic to your web page is
essential to increasing sales. The challenge is to market your products and increase
your traffic and to do it affordably or even for free.

Fortunately, this is an option for home based businesses, and all it takes is a
little creativity combined with dedication. And for those home based businesses with
advertising budgets, there are even more advertising options available. Here are
some suggestions that should help your product marketing plan significantly.

One of the best ways to get your web page noticed is by writing and publishing
articles. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of ezines and newsletters that are
constantly looking for new content. First, you need to find some ezines and
newsletters that target your niche market. You can search for them on your favorite
search engine by searching for \"ezine directories\" or \"newsletter directories\".
Then, write an article that can be submitted to a variety of these ezines and online
newsletters, just make sure you retain the copyright. You may not think that you
have the ability or creativity to write articles, but it can easily be done with a
couple hours of effort and some commitment. The key part of marketing your home
business is by creating a resource box at the end of your article that contains your
URL and some brief information about you and your company. Doing this will get your
web page out in the public quickly and will result in many hits and free product
marketing.

Another way to market your products is to create a forum on your web page. By doing
this, you are getting individuals to talk about products and services offered by
your company as well as competitors and other relevant topics. This alone will help
your product assuming you are offering top notch quality and customer service. If
not, then a forum might not be the best idea for you. In addition, a forum will
require a commitment of your time in reviewing the posts to make sure the
discussions are kept within the rules. However, for those that are committed to
their customers, forums generally create repeat traffic which is important to making
sales. This is important because it has been proven that more than 70% of sales are
made after the third, fourth or fifth contact. A forum keeps individuals coming back
for more and more contact, which means you will sell more products.

Additionally, you should use banners on your own web page as well as others by
exchanging links. You should also list your web page with search engines. All of
these will help your web page get noticed which means your products and services
will get noticed and your home based business will prosper. Remember that the most
important factor in product marketing online is URL marketing. You might have the
best product for the best price on earth, but if nobody knows how to get to your web
site it doesn\'t matter. Therefore, be diligent about getting your URL out there.

Finally, market your product and URL offline. This will reach a different sector of
individuals and will also increase web page traffic. Make sure your URL is printed
on any correspondence from your company including checks, faxes, web pages, emails,
and letters, envelopes, and any promotional items like key chains, mouse pads and
the like. The more people that know your URL means more traffic to your site. This
in itself is the best product marketing you can receive.
