An easy way to spread the word on your business opportunity is to use PPC advertising. The giant in online advertising is of course Google. However, a cheaper alternative to using Google, Yahoo or MSN would be to use 2nd or 3rd tier PPC engines.

Miva

2nd tier search engines usually offer cheaper ppc because there are less people using the network. The cheap prices benefit the company because it draws in people that don’t have large amounts of money to spend on ads. One of these engines is Miva.

As with most large search engines, Miva has an affiliate program that pays you $20 for every person you refer that funds their ppc account with $25. As an incentive to those that sign up, Miva will also give the advertiser a $25 credit. This is a win-win situation for the advertiser and the affiliate. Then, the advertiser can also offer the affiliate program in order to make more money. So right off the bat, the advertiser has made a 100% ROI for signing up to Miva for free. Then you can use the ppc to sell your products for even more money.

This can turn into an infinite source of income for the affiliate. Everyone that sells products online or promotes their own site will often use ppc. So why not get a free credit and some cheap ppc while your at it.
