How
to use the free website services to promote your
product, service, idea, or opinion.
Here
is our list of the best free web services. You can use free websites
instead of paid website hosting to promote
products and services or you can use them to help send traffic to
your own website.
Free
Websites
Weebly.com is
a free full website service. You can easily create a multi-page website
and blog using a simple drag and drop interface. All you
have to pay for is the domain name. The web pages do not even
have any ads
on them. I don't know how they make money, but this is perhaps
the best free website deal on the web!
Free
Blogs
Wordpress.com and Blogger.com are
free blog services. You can easily create an online diary with pictures,
visitor comments,
photo galleries
and more. I recommend Wordpress.com because it is said to
have the most successful with the search engines of the free blogs.
Social Networking Websites
Facebook.com started out as an online student yearbook at Harvard. It has evolved
into a massive people directory
that is a must
for anyone
in business and also a great way for friends and family
to connect.
Single
Page Sites
Squidoo.com and Hubpages.com are
more about ideas, places and things than people. You can create single
web pages
about any
topic – whatever
you are passionate about. These two sites are probably
the most recommended ways to promote your own website.
A
single web page on Squidoo is called a Lens. You can create a Lens
about a product or service, as well
as
a favorite
person, movie,
book, or place. Squidoo is probably the most fun
and free
website
builder there is. Squidoo also has very good
results with the search engines. If you only use
one of the free websites in this list it should be
Squidoo.
Article
Directory Websites
Article
Directory websites like EZineArticles.com collect
short to medium length informational text-only articles
and make
them available
to other
web site publishers. Article Directories are
probably the easiest and fastest
way to get publicity and traffic for your website
because you don't have to deal with images or
HTML code.
Classified
Ad Websites
Classified
Ad sites like USFreeAds.com allow you to create online ads that can
publicize
your product
or
service
and also bring
traffic your
website. You can create basic text ads for
free or, for a small monthly fee, you can create HTML
ads
that are
like single web
pages.
Press
Release Websites
Press
releases sites like PRFree.com are
online distributors of press releases.
PRFree.com is a no-cost press release
website but there are a variety of paid
press release websites that offer wider
distribution and more services such as
tracking and hosting.
You
should use a variety of free websites to promote your product or
service. If
you have
a website,
you should use
a combination
of all of
the free websites to promote it. The
real power is to make a free website network
of links pointing to your
main website or blog.
