Advertise what? (Just want to clarify things.)

Google adwords seem to be popular and work well from what I have heard.

Obtain a 19" push mower, not self propelled. Locate a busy cloverleaf where two main interstates converge. Watch local traffic reports to see where the chopper flies.

Around noon, take your mower out to the interstate and mow your URL into the grass. Make each letter two passes wide.

By the time you are finished, it should be about 4 PM now and rush hour will start. When the traffic choppers fly over, they may or may not show your URL on area newscasts.

If they do, you just stole about $20,000 worth of ad space on network TV and paid nothing for it.

If the police show up, they will ask you to leave and might cite you with tresspassing (an infraction) or fine you for littering or something. Pay your fine and accept same as cost of doing buisness.

If they cite you for tresspassing, plead guilty and they'll prolly stick you on probation for 6 mos and thats the end of it unless you already have a criminal history.

kkimmel's plan sounds reasonable...
Another way is to grab a sexy girl in a wet tee-shirt, put your url on it, and post it on hotornot.com
Seriously, try a web search for "free pop-under ads"
It's a start...
Well, I'm off to hotornot to see all of your ads...

Actually google adwords is a great start. I would also look at overture. Although pricey you will get some good traffic and hopefully business

Personally, I liked this one that was posted in an earlier thread akin to this one: Originally posted by SimonMc
Paint your head blue and walk around your high street for 2 weeks staring at people. Then...and this is the best bit. Paint your head red and hang a notice around your neck saying that you are completely cured because you discoverd XYZ Hosting.

I guarantee that not only will the local media be interested...so will the welfare the police and nobody will ever forget XYZ hosting! :D
