Selling from your website
So you have gotten your website up and running. You have of course submitted it to all the major web search engines or paid for someone more tech savvy to do it for you. How do you know that you are not getting ripped off? Here is a site with information on how to avoid search engine marketing malpractice. If you are trusting someone else to do your Search Engine Optimization then you should look into the possibility that they could either be doing it wrong or just plain ripping you off. I once signed up for one of those banner ad displays. I would buy 10,000 impressions of my banner on other websites. I have no idea where they appeared. For all I know they appeared for a brief second on an add farm site. I do know that it only took less than 15 minutes for all the 10,000 banners to be displayed. I received no visitors from any of them. That was $25.00 down the drain. My advice to you is learn all you can about SEO and marketing your own website before you trust someone else to do it for you.

You have to be very careful if you don't submit your site yourself to earch engines; for all you know a company may be charging you a fortune to have your link displayed on a few traffic exchange websites: if you have adsense on your site, this is against Google's terms and conditions and you could be wondering why your adsense account is being closed down!
If you outsource your work, do your homework first and make sure you submit your site to a trustworthy company.
I agree with you. There is also another scam called "message board blaster". They "blast" your ad to over 5000 message boards or so they claim. So I took a look at some of the message boards and guess what they own themand run them! No one vists them they are just out there in cyberland getting ads all over them. Meaningless if you ask me.
