What's your best marketing method with least input?

    What has been the method you have used for marketing that asked for the least input of yours (money, time, energy, knowledge etc), but that had an effect beyond your expectations?

    For me it has been building a list by posting. Amazing how easy it could be! I love the outcome :)

    Writing a quick how-to guide and selling it for $5-$10 on various forums that allow such sales. I've made over $200 fairly quickly for literally just putting an idea to make money on paper and selling it.

    I would say blogging in general. Using 20 minutes to write a blog post that keeps making me money for months (even years).

    Have to agree with the above and also add in twitter. My blog posts automatically to twitter and over 2000 other users see it and some retweet them to other lists of users.

    For me it's probably been creating mini sites and selling them fairly quickly.

    Blogging, it really works for me as it only takes leas than an hour to create couple of blogs wherein you can post it then through your web 2.0 or you can write up as many articles and sell it. It's a sure way to make money fast and easy online.

    Writing in general be it blogging, more content for my site, social sites, articles, etc. For me it is the easiest and quickest way to get traffic. Traffic means more money.

    Who cares about marketing yourself..... If you want to blog just blog for fun. Best money is in CPA and selling products that have nothing to do with making money online.

    With respect to super affiliates, what is the best way to find and get into contact with super affiliates? I have a few hot products that I am selling but I do not have any affiliates or affiliate programs. I think I could probably do alot better if I had some super affiliates promoting my products.

    Also, where can I find affiliates who have large email lists. I would like to pay to advertise on someone's weight loss list. I would pay top dollar.

    Thanks,

    You really can't get anymore fail safe than with content. We've all heard it a million times over, but it really is a definite successful marketing tool.

    It's good to see when people are making it with Twitter. I've personally tried, but it hasn't worked for me as well as it has with others. Oh well, for now, I'll stick with what works :)
