Does anyone know of any affordable online marketing solutions or solution providers? I'm looking for services ranging from SEO providers, link sharing, banner-ad sharing, and PPM/PPC. I preferably would only like to only deal with providers which people have personal experience with. I want to ensure that business owners have had a positive experience from a provider before I do business with them.

There are literally thousands of providers that would love a chance to take you up on your offer. I, on the other hand am not one of them. I believe the best way is to learn to walk before running. I advertised my company (http://www.m5forex.com/default.htm) on search engine PPC with the big three (Google, Yahoo and MSN) on my own for the first six months. I feel that I now can comfortably handle this area should my marketing person walk out, and am adept at reading the monthly/quarterly reports.

The reasoning behind this was two fold. 1) Your site is not let out of the "sandbox" for about 6 months so mistakes don't hurt as much - and 2) The knowledge of the operational aspects (even as basic as mine are) will serve me for life.

Even when not aggressively advertising we maintain a presence with the search engines at a $1 a day limit to keep exposure and branding with our keywords.

Other providers we use that I can personally vouch for as receiving the clicks and exposure we pay for are Bravenet Media (http://adbuy.bravenetmedianetwork.com/login.php), Miva (http://www.miva.com/us/) and Exact Seek (http://www.exactseek.com/featured_listings.html).

Good Luck and remember the new Triple Bottom Line "People - Planet - Profits

I would recommend using Accupros (www.accupros.com). I use them for my SEO, Linking, and Pay Per Click Management. They are pretty reasonable and do good work. I shopped around when I was looking and they were def competitive on the cost and I trust them. I keep on seeing my conversions go up, and see my site ranking for words which it never used to rank for.
