What about Price and Quality of Service?

There is more to discuss here besides speed of connections. Take price for one. Cable and DSL connections are both going to be more expensive than dial-up. But, DSL seems to be cheaper of two at moment. You can get a good DSL internet connection for about $35 - $45 per month. Cable modem will cost you about $45 or $50 (this price may be included in a cable TV package). These prices, however, are really close and they change almost from month to month.

DSL is nice because you can talk on phone and be online at same time. In addition, business-level DSL service provides guaranteed data rates, so your connection speed is never a surprise. On other hand, DSL speed tends to decrease further you are away from data center, and it is typically not as widely available as Cable. Cable speeds are not dependent on distance from data center, and is occasionally cheaper than DSL when included in a cable TV rate. A cable modem, however, may require costly professional installation, and there may exists some limitations on downloads and uploads. All of these factors should be taken into consideration when choosing either broadband service.

4. Banner exchanges: You include a HTML code to your web site and each time somebody visits site where HTML code is placed a banner will be displayed and you get some credits (usually 1/2 - 1 credit depending on exchange ratio). For each credit you "earn" your banner will be displayed on another banner exchange members page. This type of promotion is good for branding but it will increase your traffic just about 0,1 - 1 % only (depending on click rate of your banner) so always combine this method with another strategies.

5. Promotional coupon codes: Everybody is happy for a free gift or some discount and a lot of online marketers take advantage of this fact. So why don't make your customers happy too? There are many promotional coupon code directories on Internet. Put your coupon code to most of these web sites. Try combination of promotional coupon codes strategy and affiliate marketing. Give away to your publishers promo codes or special affiliate link. If visitor click this link he gets some discount, free gift, free shipping or another benefits.
