The one thing that you need is effective advertising, one that garners results as well as does not burn a hole in your pocket. However there are only a limited number of options available when it comes to online advertising, and the more obvious one, read Google, will prove to be of help only if you’re willing to throw you credit cards in its way. The other option however, i.e., the Yahoo! Bing network allows you to advertise for a rather conceivable CPC, and ensures better visibility in its network!
