Here’s how you can tip a website (instead of just clicking on an ad)

Categories: Websites, Online Marketing

Seth Godin thinks we should tip websites we like by clicking on adverts.

His heart may have been in the right place but the recommendation didn’t go down well with many in the online marketing world.

Here are some alternative ways you can tip a website that you like.

Bookmark it

Digg/Delicio.us/Furl the link
Add it to your Facebook
Email/Send the link to a friend
Send the URL to your friend
Link to it from your own blog
Write about it on a forum/message board
Tell your friend about it
SMS is to your friend
Comment about it on another blog
Sign up to a newsletter
Register with the website
Add a comment to the article
Send a thank you email to the author/webmaster/editor
Send content suggestions to the author/webmaster/editor
Take part in a poll
Engage in the forum/message board

And finally, click on an advert ONLY if you’re genuinely interested
