Tips for advertising my new online business? - Chris - 05-04-2014 11:34 AM
Hi in about a week a will be starting my own online business. I will be selling hockey tshirts and hats. I'm looking for advice as to how to get my website out there and for people to buy my stuff. I already have a twitter account with 1500 followers and a bunch of people that are looking forward to buying stuff based on the pictures ive uploaded but I know I can't count on twitter and facebook to get me the amount of sales I would like. I know that forums might work but I don't know which ones and other than that I just have know idea how or where to advertise for cheap/free. Any advice given is appreciated! I will give the best answer out tomorrow!

Getting advertising on popular sites could be beneficial. Make sure your website has good SEO so people can find you on search engines. You could also take out some google/facebook ads that will target people interested in purchasing that kind of stuff.
If you want to get advertising, other than google adsense, I use commission junction for my website. It gives advertisers a commission on sales due to clicks. It's a win-win for both as you only pay out when a sale is made following a click on a banner/text ad and the advertiser gets a cut on the sale as a reward for the ad.
Finally, I would gladly add a link to your website if you would give me the URL. I try and keep a database of hockey manufacturers and hockey related manufacturers up to date.
Also can give you a follow on twitter
Hope it helps!
