Ezine advertising is a great method of building business, but this too is very risky depending on your type of business. Knowing where to place your ads is alwaysrepparttar greatest challenge. Some ezines are great and some are dogs. Some are expensive and some are inexpensive. Determiningrepparttar 109629 strength of your ad copy is tantamount to your success before spending a single dime on advertising in ezines.

There are ezines offering free ads, but they are not worth much to your advertising bottom line. Most of these ezines don't have a solid buyers base to them at all. Rather, they are mostly comprised of sellers who were searching forrepparttar 109630 freebie advertisements. Justrepparttar 109631 same, you can use these to test your ads before taking your money torepparttar 109632 paid ezines. This is just one of hundreds of ways to test your ads before purchasing expensive ad space.

Other ways to test your ads is to place them in classified ad websites, in safe-lists, in general advertising or niche mailing lists. You could run them in low-cost ezines. You can also set them up as independent doorway pages which are submitted to search engines.

There are also FFA pages that can be used for testing, but I generally recommend against FFA pages becauserepparttar 109633 return is so very, vary low byrepparttar 109634 nature of how FFA pages are operated and used. In my mind, FFA pages simply are not worthrepparttar 109635 time or money that you invest in them.

Sites like http://SubmitAds.net permit you to place your ads in their directory and then send your message to people who will place their advertisements through your replicated SubmitAds website. If you were adventurous, SubmitAds actually sports a nice pay program to enable you to send email to everyone in their network atrepparttar 109636 intervals you decide. You may even earn a few additional dollars by participating in their program.

No matter what approach you take to place and test your advertising and ad copy, you should be running some type of tracking to determinerepparttar 109637 effectiveness of your advertising in circulation. Without some method of tracking being employed, your test results are based only upon guess work. Inrepparttar 109638 real world of business, guess work just does not cut it. You need to know precisely what is working for you and what is not working for you.

There is no better way to determine what works and what does not than to employ some type of ad tracking software. There are a few companies employing such services, each with their own advantages and disadvantages, and each with very different pricing structures.

Shop around and see which ad tracking software is best for you and then use it to make a realistic determination as to what is working and what is not. Test your ads and your advertising mediums and trackrepparttar 109639 results produced by each. And whenrepparttar 109640 day is done, move forward with what has proven successful and then discardrepparttar 109641 rest.
