Promoting a website can be a very daunting task. It can take hours and hours of time. Maybe it’s about time you cut back on promoting your website, and let others do the dirty work for you.

Below is a list of a couple ways that others can promote your website online for free.

E-Mail Signature – Have people you know…friends, family, members on your website include a link to your website in their email signatures.

Forum Signatures – Ask everyone you know to include your link in their forum signatures.

Affiliate Program – Create an affiliate program and offer your affiliates some kind of bonus for selling/attracting visitors to your website.

Avatars – Design an awesome avatar with a link to your site in it. Let people use it on forums.

Wordpress Themes – Design or sponsor a wordpress theme so your link is in the footer. Other people will download your theme and spread it around the net like a virus.

Blogs – Ask people you know to blog about your website. Often times I find myself not having any ideas for a post and would be glad to promote my friends websites.

Chain Letters – Start a stupid/funny chain letter and send it to everyone on your list. Make sure you add that ‘If you don’t send this letter to 10 people your dream won’t come true” at the bottom.

Social Bookmarking – Have all your friends stumble your website.

Word of Mouth – Tell others to talk about your website. Word of mouth is a powerful tool you need to take advantage of.

They all sound pretty simple and obvious, but I guarantee that you aren’t doing all of them. Let other people help do the work for you.
