Creating a fan page is free but promoting it via ads to increase your fan base has a fee. First you need to have a facebook account which will become the admin of the fan page. This may or may not be your personal facebook account. To advertise, you will have to log in your credit card information and specify your target market.

Fan pages are free, sidebar advertisements are not, as the person above me stated.
However there are many other ways to promote your business and accumulate a fan base on Facebook. One way is to simply invite all of your friends, if nothing else, they will at least look at the page they get invited to, but there are bound to be a few who will join. From there, word will spread just from someone seeing that your friend became a fan of it, which will peak others interest.

As others have stated, sidebar advertising is not free, but I would not recommend purchasing ads that link to your facebook fan page, have then link to your website. Besides inviting all your friends, you can create accounts on other social networking sites such as twitter, myspace, linkedIn and start searching for your target audience (the people who would want your product). Provide them with something of value so you're not just spamming, and people will join. The biggest cost in this game is time.
