A lot of domain-bloggers will talk about how to advertise your site over the internet, and the best ways to do it. I have seen very few talk about how you can also advertise your site NOT through the internet, but actually through people/humans. I wouldn’t hesitate to say that I personally feel that internet advertising is the most effective, but once you have put the forms of advertising out on the internet that you like best for your website, I would say a very solid next step for advertising is through using human resources.

I will be perfectly honest by saying that I have never tried any form of human resources advertising, other then spreading the word to different people, and telling them about my business and different websites. But my company at this point in time is still working on advertising on the internet, so we haven’t really gotten up to advertising using human resources. Below, you will see a list that I have compiled of 3 different ideas of how you can advertise the human resources way.

1) SPREAD THE WORD! This by far is what I feel, and deem to be the most effective way of advertising with human resources. Tell your friends, family, colleagues, etc. about your business and sites. I guarentee you that some of them will pass on the word, and talk to your sites and business with their friends, family, and colleagues.

2) Sponsership – I have seen little league teams and other sports teams be sponsored by different websites, or local stores. To have your logo on a jersey or uniform can be quite effective. The kids, parents, dry-cleaners, and even maid will look at it and be interested as to what it is, and what exactly it offers.

3) Bumper Stickers – Interesting story with this suggestion actually. I was on my way downtown with my family to attend a charity dinner, and on the back of a car, I saw this site, which I forgot the domain of, because this was a couple of months ago. And I remember going home, looking at the site, and even buying something off the site. Once again, months later I have no idea what I bought, or this site I bought it from on the bumper sticker, but it goes to show that bumper stickers, or just stickers can be an effective, unique form of advertising.

I hope everyone enjoyed and will take into consideration advertising using the ideas that I suggested, or just through other means of human resources. Please feel free to comment on any experience with advertising using human resources, other ideas for viewers, or just comments on my ideas that I suggested.
