    Advertising in Local Newspaper.

    If you are new in business, you have to go for offline advertising initially.

    if you're willing to expose you're site more on the net, and if you have the money to take the next level of online promotions, then you can try PPC, paid advertisements,and banner advertising

    It really depends on your type of business. Do you have a physical store with physical products? Do you sell regionally, worldwide?

    Marketing in your local area is very important to get good business, I believe it is more powerful to get good business than online.

    So, you should not forget marketing emails, building up references, get data of your target customers and call them and most importantly computer magazines.

    I am not sure what type of business you are talking about, but creating some type of training that will help your prospects. This falls under product creation category, but will turbo boost your marketing efforts. Just think about what makes you commit to something. When I see someone putting great content out there and is going beyond the basics, I buy from them every time.

    Something I learned a long time ago... a small percent of people are lookin be part of a business, but instead the majority of us are looking for the help to grow a business.

    Sorry if off topic. Still I think you can find my outlook useful. Good luck succeeding on all your endeavors.

    I've noticed YouTube and all other form of video marketing have been really doing me wonders! Researching how to optimize your YouTube videos is WELL worth it! Even if you just make a slide show with you talking in the background! And make sure to put your link is the beginning of your video description, NOT at the end. The amount of affiliate income I make on YouTube pays for my car and cell phone! Can't complain about that. So my answer is video marketing.

    Word of mouth, T-shirt printing, and the traditional business cards with your link on it equally works
