Its a big business now but it is not always clear how best to advertise. Some ads are paid like on FaceBook and if you have a big budget you can pay to advettise on YouTube and MySpace. A more common and free way to advertise is to post messages and blogs on each site. You can upload videos to attract people to your site or goods.
