    I do well with pay per click but I'm curious to see if any of you have any slick ways of getting the word out for new stores for FREE.

    'Free' may be a four-letter word but it shouldn't be ignored!

    Not only is it part of my research but my wife is launching a store and I'd like to hear about the top notch ways to promote such a thing without paying for it-

    Alipoli Baby Store

    So far, here's the list of ways:

    • Article posting
    • Blog Comments
    • Blog Posts
    • Directory Submissions
    • Email Blasting
    • Forum Posts/Signature Links
    • Link Exchange
    • Word of Mouth
    • YouTube Videos

    These are pretty well-known and although I know they'll be helpful, there are other white/grey-hat ways to promote stores that I haven't read about or thought of yet.

    So show me what you've got!

    Scott I love the site, you have some real neat baby items. I personally would try to get the word out on the wahm sites, work at home moms need to not only save money but they love to shop for the kids online as well. You might also look for forums that deal with parenting etc. These are great places to promote.
