Some of that advertising has cost me money, but some of it is free. Now, due to my internet marketing, I have magazines like Outside Magazine as well as newspapers calling me and doing interviews for articles that they are publishing. So, I am getting national/international advertising for free via the articles. I also have people contacting me to find out if they can put my website info. on their website. I started out having to pay around $1000 for the initial web advertising, now I only have to continue with a couple of paid for ads which run me around $500/year. Not a bad deal. Also, keep in mind that I did not start out as a web advertising guru. I just put a lot of effort into it and it is now paying off.
