The best place for you to start is at http://www.craigslist.org. This is by far the best bang for your buck as it's free and it generates more leads and page views than many paid services.

Another site to look at is US Free Ads at http://www.USFreeAds.com. You may have to pay some money to advertise your services but it's very cheap. You can get away with $10/year.

You should also create a website. If you don't already have one, you can create a free page at http://www.hubpages.com.

Content is the first part of promoting your website. If you don't have good content, you're not going to get people to convert on your website. Good relevant content also gets you good ranking with search engines and will get you listed faster.

A great way to build links to your website and to get traffic going there is to utilize social networking sites like facebook and myspace to post content about your website and links back to your home page.

Another way to do this is to utilize social bookmarking websites like digg.com, technorati, reddit, delicious, and all of the other hundreds of sites out there.

Now, you can go through and spend hours upon hours building these links or you can use a widely accepted solution that most Internet marketers use. I have used quite a few different products for this and have found Bookmarking Demon to be the best. There are other products but this is the best one to use for amount of links getting through and for not getting you banned from the sites. Very important.

Also, you should check out Google Analytics and get your website setup with it. How do you know if the things you're doing are increasing your traffic if you're not tracking it?

Let me know if you have any other questions.
