Once you have found a few good ezines, keep advertising with them, once you gave started making money with your classified ads, it will be time to start using sponsorship ads

Sponsorship ads
While sponsorship ads have a dramatic increase in your home based business advertising cost, the results will also be drastically different. A top sponsorship ad can cost any where between $15 to £300 depending on where you are advertising.

Solo ads
Also compare the price between a sponsor ship ad or a solo ad, because if you can get a Solo ad for an extra$50, then it will definitely be worthwhile to go for the Solo ad.

Discussion board posting
Another method of free advertising is by discussion board posting, which can be extremely effective especially if the message board is inside a members-only site where you paid to join.

The idea here again is not to spam the message board, but to actually add some content. Only answer questions you know a lot about, do not try to come across as an expert on a topic when you are not, this is the best way to ruin your reputation before you are even lucky enough to create one.

Signature files are little burbs of text either after a post in a message board or at the bottom of your email, the idea of the signature file is to make them as short and as compelling as possible.
Link your signature file to your home based business sales page. A good idea is to use a separate tracking system to track how many hits your message board postings are receiving.
