Here we introduce all free methods for website promotion. If well utilized, these free methods can significantly increase the exposure of your website.
1. Submit to search engines so people can find your website.
For many small and medium-sized websites, traffic from searches can account for 70%-90%, so submitting to search engines is very important and it's free.
The submission addresses for the currently largest domestic search engines are:
Google: http://www.Google.com/intl/zh-CN/add_url.html
Baidu: http://www.Baidu.com/search/url_submit.htm
Yahoo! China Directory: http://search.help.cn.yahoo.com/h4_4.html
Live (Microsoft): http://search.msn.com/docs/submit.aspx?FORM=WSDD2
Youdao Search (NetEase): http://tellbot.yodao.com/report?keyFrom=help
2. Submit to website directories
Submitting to website directories can increase your site's exposure and is also an important factor in improving your site's weight in search engine rankings.
Most website directories generally require reciprocal links. A quick search for "website directory" will show you many directory-type websites. Here, I only recommend two completely free ones: DOMZ and tuiguang.la. Both are excellent and don't require you to link back to them.
