The most important thing in marketing is promotion. Only from creative and innovative promotion products or services can successfully accepted in this era. There are 2 ways to promote products or services which is free and paid ways. Mostly the paid in is better that the free one, but it doesn't mean the free promotion not working. In this post I will share the advantage and disadvantage of using free and paid promotion technique. So, we should use and combine this 2 technique to get the best result.

1. Advantages of use free promotion techniques is we don't have to spend any single of cents and we can do it as many as we can as long still following the rules. The disadvantages use free promotion techniques is quite slow to make people know or interest about our products or services.

2. Advantages of use paid promotion techniques is very quick to make our products or service famous, because usually the paid ads is have a lot of followers. The disadvantages of use paid promotion is when we don't really understand the process, we just wasting money.​

Whether the traffic is free or it is one that is being paid for it is always advisable that the first thing to do on your side is that you should put great content so that no matter where the traffic is coming from the visitors will always have a reason to return back to your site. Organic traffic from search engine and social media is one of the best that you should always look out for for your side.

It I'm to advise anyone that need a wider coverage it will be the paid promotion. If you have a wider coverage you would be able to capture market share better. Doing this will bring more sales which means more profit and more money. So paid ad for money if one has the money to spend. The benefits will come

Paid promotions or ads are the best, as your targeted traffics would be reached in no time, as it's your money that's speaking for you. If you have enough money to spend you will see effective results and it won't be long but free ads may take you almost forever to achieve anything towards selling your products.

Paid ad gives instant traffic to your website, free aid give slowly and natural traffic to your website. If you want to increase your website ranking instantly then you can run paid campaign otherwise free aid is best for you.

Paid adverts is definitely the best because if you do it very well you will definitely achieve a very good result. advertising your product or services for free on social media may not get a lot of attention and would require a lot of time from your part and also determination.

I have always advised people that whenever they are wanting to monetize your site they should only consult free traffic if they just want to promote it period after that it is only the quality of your website and how responsive it is that it is going to continually attract people to it.

The way we promote our products or services also an important key to make people buy them. Just like you said, we should always set up a great content so even we use free traffic we still can get chance to make a sale. But the things I underline is if we spend money on paid ads, we will get more quality traffics.
