Article writing to directories such as Ezine Articles works well as does promoting products via an informative blog, providing you have an online business.

Sheree
You mention Craigslist, don't you find that your ad keep getting dropped with no explanation? I do -- but I think it because I have multiple posing of the same ads. Are you familiar with this?

Also, I agree with you about not prancing as a "marketer". I built up a large Twitter following and then learned your lesson the hard way Now I try to balance my marketing with relationship building too.

A great way to get free publicity for your business is subscribing to HARO - Help a Reporter Out (TM) -it's free and you will get inquires sent to you daily for info that reporters are looking for. If you have relevant information for the reporter they will use you for one of their stories--and you get free publicity for your business--sometimes pretty substantial publicity. You just have to make sure you are being relevant when responding. But has some great potential.

Use Google's Wonder Wheel to drive traffic to your site. It's a great free tool.

Any recommendation for any FREE VIRAL marketing program that has worked successfully for you? I'm just now learning about them and trying them. Let me know if you know of any of them.. I checked this thread but don't know which ones are viral

Thanks,

I get GREAT results with forums and traffice exchanges. I know a lot of people dont believe that traffic exchanges bring quality traffice but I have found they do a little bit.

I accept: the forums are the best way to 'meet' others as well.

I don't know if this has been mentioned already - without going through 49 pages of posts - but I discovered that Facebook Fan Pages are a great way to advertise.
