    So I decided to offer a $10 Amazon Gift Certificate to a randomly chosen email address left with a comment on my news site. How should I <<promote this promotion>> without spending more money :) ? Ideas? Anyone?!

    Thanks
    Mihai

    You may want to consider submitting a press release, with information on your promotion as the "news". You can submit a release on PRWeb for free, and this could bring new visitors to your site. You may also want to do some research on the demographic profile of Amazon.com users, and try to target them, as well.

    HTH,
    Sam

    Where did you advertise your promo? Did no one even leave a single comment?

    I've put a big flash ad on the site. Looks like it was ignored by visitors. Oh well.. :)

    Oh dear. Well better luck next time. Do you think you'd have more luck if you advertised it somewhere with readers, like on this forum?
