Now since there is so many ways to get free advertising, and so many way that either work or a scam.
There are also so many XOOPS members, so hopefully if everyone adds to this post there tips on advertising; it can become a guide to all XOOPS new members and also others, attracting them to Xoops.
As again we show we do have community! (Well use to, lol I think many of us have been busy lately, yet regardless we still do!! if people have the time or glance a post they know how to fix, out of the core of us, we do try and help if we can.)
Anyway, so if you know anyways to advertise for free, that has been successful or free auto submitters that work and have a good listing, please add them for all to find out about.
Ok for me one thing I have found and I know a lot of people may not want them on their site, yet I joined webring ages ago and it helped my ranking loads.
I did sort of go on a mission though and for wizanda.co.uk joined about 800 webrings (a bit of a pain if the site goes down for 24 hours, as I get 800 emails).
The thing with this and what I figured is that in those 800 webrings I am in, each may have 20 sites, so start 800x20=16000xadvertisng each site has done independently=loads!!
If you are in a good webring then some of those may have pay per click advertsing, which means when your site is next to theirs in the webring, it counts on search engines.
Now I said 20 as an average, yet some webrings can have 200+ sites, times this by the amount of links, it works out as and wham bam Google or any other search engine instantly sees you as popular.
How do I know that this works?, wizanda.com is new, when I first started it, all I did is move the existing webring off, wizanda.co.uk and on to wizanda.com, it instantly went to top of Google.
I later put this back and really shouldn’t have messed, yet I just wanted a site to go straight in. (I sort of messed it up, as it take time for you to be in next page order and to be then counted)
So that is my two cent, if anyone else knows way like this or others that can work and not cause you to much grief in the process, please add them for everyone to hear about.
