• Forums. There are many forums where you can promote your products. Consider which will be your star product and then make it your focus. Gottadeal.com has a specific Black Friday section that many people visit.
• Deal Pages. Websites like RetailMeNot and Groupon are some of the favorites when looking for a great discount or coupon. You can also offer free delivery or “buy 1 get 1 free”.
• Facebook Events. Make a Facebook event and invite as many people as you can. This will give you new visibility for your store and products.
• Blogs. Find blogs related to the industry you are in and offer to guest post or find a very good blog post and make a comment not only promoting your services but saying something that will give added value to the people who read it.

• Reddit.  Here you can find the right niche for your products. Become an active user and establish a history of activity in order to be taken more seriously.
• Yahoo Answers and Quora. This are searchable online platforms where people ask any kinds of questions and you can answer them. Make sure you don’t spam or fill answers a lot of links since this platforms will block your answers.
