your site through the Internet. The key is finding sites relevant
to your business that get the most qualified traffic. This could
be a chiropractic directory, organizations like the American
Chiropractic Association, any businesses you network with, the
Chamber of Commerce, local information sites, etc.
Reciprocal
Linking
Talk to the people in businesses associated to yours that
refer you business and vice versa.
This could be doctors, or attorneys. Ask
them to put a link from their site to yours for the same thing
in exchange. It's free and can be one of the best ways to
get qualified traffic to your site.
Directory
Sites
National or regional associations for your industry is the
first place to start. Use search engines to search for such
directories if you have never heard of any. Many of these
sites will list you for free, and can be a significant lead
source. Look on the site for information on how to sign up.

site about your city, or even a local newspaper website. Check

Another
method to find area information sites is to use the search

popular sites found on more than one search engine - this
