How do you give away a Free product?

I know its a stupid question but I'm being honest!

I am promoting a new web-app that does price comparison with the major online shopping and auction sites. Its an affiliate program and the product is amazing! I just am having major issues giving the app away!

The way it works is as people compare with the app I get ppc commissions and as people buy through amazon and clickbank as you can imagine I get affiliate income.

All I have to do is send them to theshoppingtoolbar.com
so they can get it... But I'm having problems doing this...

Any Suggestions??:confused:

    Well, I'm not sure I understand you. Your post contains a link & if you scroll down, you will see your name as the referer. Anyone who downloads the toolbar from that page will presumably go into your downline. So you need to drive traffic to that page - simple as that.

    If you are asking how to drive traffic to that page, then this forum has a ton of advice for you. Try article marketing for a start.

    And good luck.

      I believe your major concern is how to drive traffic to your site. And you already know that once you have your traffic, you shall have people buying.

      Now, how to get the traffic? There is a lot of information in this forum, but to summarize here are a few ways:

      PPC (costly, but quick traffic)
      SEO (takes time to build, initial cost overhead high, long term maintenance cost overhead usually lower that PPC)
      Article marketing
      Social media marketing
      Video marketing

    I'm not concerned with my downline that is the direct sales part of it I'm concerned with giving the "product" away

    Like the other have said above your last post you need to drive traffic to the page where this product is given away. Once people begin to hear about word will spread and help you out also since it is free.

    The suggestions above are solid but I'd stress social media marketing. It can be easier to establish a relationship on a site like Facebook with messages, updates, etc.

    When people trust you they are more likely to grab your freebies, at least from my experience. Write a detailed profile and make friends with people in your niche to develop this trust.
