How should I advertise?

    Hey, I started a company called Iacono Software. I create custom websites as well as applications, and I charge $75 an hour, so it isn't a budget website generator by any means. Right now word of mouth is doing great, but in the future what is my best bet for advertising? The reason I ask is because you see lots of ads for cheap website builders or generic websites, I want to advertise in an environment where my service can thrive. Thanks.

    Hey Anthony,

    Although word of mouth is probably the best form of advertising, you can also use things like Google Adwords and Adbrite to get your site across the net. Both of these services are trusted and are targeted towards the viewers that will be most interested in a site like yours. Hope this helps!

    Hand Printed or Computer generated flyers is a good start. put them on cars at the mall, movies or church. Anywhere there are parking lots full of cars. Hand write or computer small cards (3 x 5) and place them in location where is people traffic.
    Ex. coffee shops, air port, store posting boards, even (believe it or not) bathrooms. Just anywhere a person could see them.

    You can also try Craigslist. With 50 + million members it's still one of the best forms of advertising.
